Is your business looking to streamline, simplify, and automate its financial operations by using cloud based software?
Using cloud based accounting services gives you the flexibility to move your accounts into the cloud and off of individual desktop computers. Cloud accounting solutions allow you to allocate access to employees in other departments. You can also conveniently maintain your accounts remotely or from home or on the go keeping the same data current at all times.
Cloud accounting software is similar to traditional on-premises accounting software except the software and data is hosted on remote servers in “the cloud”.
Using cloud accounting software frees your company from having to install and maintain software on individual desktop computers and simplifies the way your accounts are handled and monitored using intelligent cloud based software.
There some key differences between cloud and traditional accounting. Cloud based, for one, is far more flexible. Data can be accessed easily from anywhere on any device with a connection to the internet rather than limited to one office based computer. Also, unlike traditional methods, cloud accounting software updates in real-time automatically so account balances are always accurate. Cloud accounts sync with your bank so fewer errors are made due to the reduction of manual data entry.
Cloud accounting software is easier to maintain as the provider completes backups and updates automatically, just imagine if your office based accounts PC were to fail.
The cloud is equally, if not more, secure than traditional office based accounts. A company laptop or desktop computer could be lost, stolen or damaged which could lead to a worrying information breach. Cloud accounting allows you to manage access, keep critical information off of the computer itself and all data is encrypted and password protected.
