7 out of 10 companies we speak to are still stuck in the year 2014… And it’s costing them.

These companies are missing out on the very benefits that could transform their operations and give them a competitive edge.
Imagine this:
You’re driving a car from 2014. It gets you from point A to point B, but it lacks the latest safety features, fuel efficiency, and connectivity.
Now, let’s take a closer look at your business.
Are you still running on an outdated accounting system that limits your growth, burdens your IT team, and forces you to rely on manual processes?
The appeal of cloud-based accounting should be clear, but let’s unpack it some more.
Think about this: no more buying, installing, or managing software yourself – the vendor handles it all, securely hosting your data while you access it online.
To build on the earlier analogy above, it’s like upgrading to a brand-new car that practically drives itself.
With cloud accounting, you’re tapping into the expertise of cybersecurity professionals who stay ahead of the latest threats.
Automatic updates keep your data secure without you lifting a finger.
And as your business grows, scaling up with cloud platforms is a breeze – no costly hardware or complex IT interventions.
You can access your financial data from anywhere, on any device. Whether you’re in the office or halfway across the globe, your accounting system is always within reach.
And we haven’t even touched on some of the other benefits, like seamless integration, and far easier collaboration within your business.
So, is cloud accounting right for your business?
Absolutely.
The flexibility, security, and cost benefits should make it a no-brainer.
And if you’re still holding on to that 2014 mindset… well… it’s time to let go.
The future of accounting is here, with solutions like Oracle NetSuite leading the way.
