Has your business outgrown Quickbooks?
CONGRATULATIONS!
After a few years of growth, the features of QuickBooks will not be robust enough for a thriving business and, as a result, it will begin to slow your business down. While Quickbooks does have its place in the early days of a business, it just cannot compare to the capabilities of other ERP software solutions like Acumatica Cloud ERP.
Its no secret that QuickBooks customers are upgrading to Acumatica in droves to handle the complexities caused by success and expansion. Growing businesses move to Acumatica to eliminate manual processes by accessing an integrated set of accounting, inventory, sales, ecommerce, and customer management modules.
When QuickBooks is being used as a simple journal, nearly all reporting is done in Excel, and most of your time is spent processing bottlenecks in the daily, monthly, and annual accounting cycle, its time to give ERP a look.
So how can you be sure you've outgrown Quickbooks?
Here are a few scenarios that scream "MOVE ON" from Quickbooks:
- Your business needs to enter more than just a few transactions a month.
- Your business has more than 15 users and oftentimes needs to be able to add full access and read-only users.
- Your business cannot determine true cash balance.
- Your business is wasting too much time on duplicate data entry.
- Your business is wasting too much time on billing your clients.
- Your business needs to process multi-currency transactions within one company or consolidate companies with multiple currencies into one.
- Your business has a need for audit and compliance controls.
- Your business is constantly jumping back and forth between different applications because of a lack of integration.
- Your business needs to create custom consolidated financial reports for multiple companies.
Research by Tech Validate shows that nearly 30% of Acumatica users ERP systems used Quickbooks before their own success helped them outgrow the capabilities and switch to Acumatica:
