Accounting Package

[randomwalsh]

Hi,

For those who are involved with accounting in their businesses, what accounting package do you use and why?
Looking at either Sage Accounting / Payroll (online) or Xero / their payroll? or Quickbooks / Payroll online.

I am currently using quickbooks desktop and have used Pastel but the entity is growing and now there will be an additional two admin / bookkeepers, and would like more features.

Without more clarity of which features you require, it's near impossible to answer your enquiry.

Xero, Quick books, SageOne, Sage 50 even Sage 100 all have their 80/20 features fit.

All of which is clearly described on their websites.

The biggest factor is the costs and the costlier it gets the more features you get with the core license, more concurrent users can use it and the wider variety of add-on features is available.

For an inventory centric operation, Sage 50 could be a starting point. Pastel Payroll integrates seamlessly.

If all you require is a GL and reporting, all of above would suffice.
