The company's needs are the most important when choosing accounting software

Grow has tested most of the programs produced in Estonia. However, we have only used the most suitable ones for our clients. Grow Finance offers its clients accounting services with over 10 different accounting software. In addition, foreign software is used, including some that no one in Estonia has heard of. Experience in using different software is our strength. The choice of program largely depends on the need, which we will discuss below.

We often hear how the choice of a program is based only on the accountant's skills, not on the company's needs. "I have such a good program, I've been using it for 25 years," is not a very good argument from a company's point of view. In general, a good program and a cooperation partner who can see the bigger picture and help with advice and strength if necessary are enough. However, a program alone is of no use without a smart user.

The software is located in the cloud

A modern program for both small and large companies is software that is located in the cloud. Gone are the days when a manager brought documents on paper to an accountant, who entered them into the software in his office and did not make backup copies. The number of software stored on his own server in the world is constantly decreasing.

Document archiving

It is also important that the program can archive documents. Since documents no longer need to be stored on paper and keeping accounting archives on a laptop is not secure, accounting software could provide a solution.

User experience

For a small business owner, the program's simplicity and quick learning should be the primary focus. It should be easy to use even for someone with no accounting background, and the initial settings should be set up so that it is possible to start using the program after a brief introduction. Perhaps you could simply create and send invoices.

Output or reporting

When choosing a program, it is very important to know what results, reporting, and information you want to get for managing your business. Can you easily get the report you want without having to process it in Excel?.

Price and support

Free, fast customer support and, of course, a reasonable price are also important for good accounting software.

Recommendation

For a starting company, we would recommend Smart Accounts or Meriti Aktiva. These programs have good customer support, are affordable, are quick to learn, and are evolving, offering many automation and interface options. For more advanced users, Directo may be suitable. For more complex and larger companies, we listen to the client's wishes and needs and find the most suitable program in cooperation. Less accounting, more entrepreneurship.

Grow is constantly working to ensure that our accountants keep up with the times. We stay up to date with the current situation in Estonia and the world and try to find solutions for companies and employees.
