Web accounting software

We can offer you a range of different accounting software solutions for your business but we believe that online, web-based accounting software is the way forward for many businesses.

What is web-based accounting and business management software?

Web-based accounting software gives you more flexibility than the more traditional pc-based packages. The software is maintained by the provider, and hosted online so all you need is a broadband connection to the internet and a web browser. The software is provided "on demand" - and is generally charged monthly (known as SaaS or Software as a Service), rather than the higher one-off upfront cost associated with traditional PC-based systems.

What are the main advantages of using web-based business accounting software?

  • Web-based software is hosted remotely on a secure web server. This means you can access your accounts safely anywhere you can get a broadband internet connection.
  • It also means that your staff or we (as your accountant) can access the same data from any location, and when the time comes for us to prepare your accounts there's no need to email us your files - you can just give us access to your books online.
  • Built in safeguards mean that you can control who has access to various parts of the system, so any sensitive data will be securely protected.
  • Some web-based systems can be automatically integrated with internet banking systems.
  • You won't need to lug a laptop around all the time and your data is always secure.
  • As an added bonus you don't need to worry about backup anymore and upgrades are performed automatically without user input.

Your next steps…

There are a variety of different web-based accounting systems on the market and it is important to find the right one for your business. Many web accounting providers offer modular systems where you can choose a set of different applications to complement the core accounting facility of the software, like a stock management function or customer relationship management function.

It can be somewhat intimidating to try to choose the right product for your company. You don't have the time or budget to try something out only to discover 2 months down the line that it doesn't do what you need, or the service is below standard.

This is where Antrobus comes in. We will help you find the best package for your business and work with you to implement and configure it appropriately. We also offer continuous training and support in the use of your chosen package.
