Bookkeeping

As an experienced accounting company we understand the importance of having a reliable piece of accounting software for businesses of all sizes. However, we also recognise that sole traders and small to medium sized businesses often don’t have access to the same software as larger organisations.

    In previous years, bookkeeping software was favoured by larger organisations as it simplifies the process of monitoring expenses, keeping track of spend and managing tax. However along with this software often came a costly free, which made it inaccessible for small to medium sized businesses. 

    In recent years, there has become a variety of software created specifically for small businesses, sole traders and contractors. We’ve made it our aim to ensure that our clients can use affordable accounting software to fulfil their finance, accounting and tax requirements for a reasonable cost. 

    Our recommended bookkeeping software 

    As with all industries, it is important to stay up to date with the latest developments in software and technology – which is exactly we have ensured that our team are constantly utilising the latest accounting kit. 

    Each client is different however, so what may suit a sole trader isn’t ideal for a small limited company. This is why we have worked hard to choose two different accounting software solutions that we feel meet the requirements of our scope of clients. Because of this, we recommend Xero and Freeagent software to most of our clients.

    Xero software

    Xero is cloud based accounting software solution that enables business owners to access their finances and accounts at any time, from any locations and any devices. The main features of Xero enable businesses of all sizes to manage essential aspects of their accounts including cashflow, invoicing, expenses and monitoring outgoing payments. 

    We often recommend Xero to small and medium sized businesses as it enables business owners to seamlessly manage their accounts in just a few clicks.

    FreeAgent software

    FreeAgent is an online accounting and finance tool that is aimed at small businesses, freelancers and contractors. It simplifies the process of accounting and finance management and allows multiple users to access data simultaneously – which is ideal for those working in partnerships or as a part of a wider team of contractors. 

    FreeAgent is a fantastic accounting software solution for freelancers/contractors as no software needs to be downloaded. All that’s required is an internet connection to access key financial information.
