App Stack for cloud accounting

Have you started on a foray into the world of cloud accounting, but beginning to wonder what all the razzmatazz was about?  

Well, let us tell you about app stacks for cloud accounting… 

To put it simply, cloud accounting is much like purchasing a brand-new smartphone. On its own, a smartphone has the basic functionalities that you’d expect from a modern mobile phone; however, when you begin to download and use the apps that you need, it then becomes a whole lot more valuable to you. This is much the same for your chosen cloud accounting platform! 

An app stack allows you to download applications to your cloud accounting platform, creating a network of functions tailored to your business’ operational needs. This can range from recording sales and invoicing, to managing your payroll and creating enhanced reports of business data. 

How does this benefit my business? 

• Pick and mix the apps that are right for you, creating a one-stop solution for your needs.  
• It’s inevitable that as your business grows, your needs will also continue to evolve. An app stack gives room for scalability, allowing you to download or delete apps as needed, without disrupting operations! 
• Create a hive of productivity, with streamlined workflows between apps. 
• Automate tasks between different apps, saving time on transferring data manually. 
• Sync your cloud accounting account with other apps, so that you’re working from just one profile.  
• Industry-specific apps tie in with your business’ niche financial needs. 

The nature of financial management for business has never been a ‘one-size-fits-all’ deal. Cloud accounting acknowledges this, allowing businesses to design an ecosystem for success with the potential of app stack! 

Cloud accounting platforms such as Xero have marketplaces where you can peruse the apps that can integrate with their software. There, you are able to see how likeminded users have been able to create an app stack that promotes success, using the apps available.
