Cloud technology is one of the most significant advances in the business world in recent years. As businesses start to trust in vital storage, new dynamics are coming into play. There have been many changes in the past few years with accounting and bookkeeping software, which is providing great opportunities while presenting various challenges. By embracing cloud-based bookkeeping companies have easy, anywhere access to their data and there is no doubt this kind of real-time access to data enables better business management. My clients are embracing it for many reasons:

For many businesses, the transition from a desktop accounting system to the cloud is a major leap of faith however, cloud-based services are making it easy to not only take the bookkeeping functions to the cloud but pretty much every aspect of the business.
