Are you considering accounting outsourcing? There are a number of benefits to using virtual accounting software services hosted securely in the cloud. One of the biggest benefits we hear about from our clients here at AccountingDepartment.com is the virtues of a paperless office. A paperless office using QuickBooks accounting software (typically Enterprise Solutions) and a QuickBooks certified bookkeeper reduces stress, increases productivity, and is better for the environment. Let’s look at a few of the other benefits.
- Paperless accounting reduces expenses. Paper, printers, printer ink—all of these costs add up to more than you pay for QuickBooks hosting in the cloud on our secure, remote servers.
- Paperless accounting reduces fraud risks. When there is no paper waste to shred and toss, there’s less risk of someone stealing important accounting data, sometimes right off your accountant’s desk. Additionally, a paperless office means no checks tucked away in a drawer, so employees can’t blatantly steal by writing out company checks in their own name.
- Paperless virtual accounting provides a complete, backed-up, always-safe record of your financial data. We don’t like to think about it, but paperwork can be stolen, destroyed in a flood, or burned in a fire. Even if you store your files on your hard drive or server hosted locally, there are a number of things that can happen to it, from accidental erasure, to corruption or a failed hard drive.
AccountingDepartment.com first scans in all your important financial data, and then stores all your data in a secure, remote location, with continuous back-ups created at another site. If your accounting procedures have been giving you stress and you’re looking for peace-of-mind, consider finance accounting outsourcing through AccountingDepartment.com.
