PCWorld: Roundup – Five Online Accounting Tools For SMBs
This roundup of online accounting tools suitable for small businesses includes FreshBooks, WorkingPoint and Outright.
“If you’re running a small business and you need help keeping the books, you’re in luck. Small-business accounting, once pretty much defined by the QuickBooks and Peachtree desktop packages, has blossomed on the Web and diversified. You can find a wealth of services that will meet your business’s accounting needs, from full-featured bookkeeping to payroll, expense accounts, invoicing, and more.
All of these services run in a browser, so you can crunch numbers from just about any Web-connected computer, and many have smartphone companion apps. Several offer integration features that let you take advantage of other sites and services–or even desktop software. All promise financial-institution-caliber safeguards for your data, which is probably better protected at an industrial data center than on most home PCs.”
