QuickBooks Online Advanced: The Smart Choice For Mid-Market Accounting Firms

As your business expands into a mid-sized concern you will inevitably outgrow your accounting software. Multiple users, compliance needs, job costing and custom reporting demand a more powerful and sophisticated solution—and, for some time, the only choice was enterprise resource planning (ERP). The problem is that complexity and a high price tag make ERP more appropriate for larger organisations.

QuickBooks Online Advanced was designed to provide a low cost and user-friendly solution that fits exactly with your mid-market needs. With features such as advanced reporting and workflow automation, advanced security and scalability, it will help you work smarter now and as your business continues to grow. 

Lower costs

With traditional ERP software solutions, implementation, training and ongoing maintenance can increase an already hefty outlay. QuickBooks Online Advanced includes these with the comprehensive suite of features and benefits, and all for a much lower cost. 

Where traditional ERPs charge per user, QuickBooks Online Advanced is available for up to 25 standard users with unlimited accounts, classes, and locations. You can create as many accounts as you need, build custom dashboards and run scheduled reports so you and your customers can make more informed business decisions. 

QuickBooks Online Advanced also gives you the confidence to continue your expansion. You’ll have all the scalability you want without paying a high price for capacity you simply don’t need. 

Work smarter

The most powerful QuickBooks solution yet, QuickBooks Online Advanced has even greater capacity for automating repetitive tasks. You can streamline and automate key workflows such as invoice approvals, payment due reminders and task assignment. Custom fields enable you to search, sort and filter information while custom tasks keep teams updated with work to be done.

Many firms are already enjoying the benefits. For example, a professional services company was struggling with time tracking and billing when they switched to QuickBooks Online Advanced. Automating their invoicing and payment processes significantly reduced their administration burden, leaving them free to focus on delivering high-quality services to clients. This not only improved client satisfaction but also enhanced their overall productivity. 

A mid-sized construction firm decided to switch from a cumbersome ERP system when they discovered that QuickBooks Online Advanced could streamline their project management and job costing processes. The advanced reporting features also helped them to gain deeper insights into the profitability of their projects, which ultimately increased their bottom line.

User friendly 

The switch to QuickBooks Online Advanced is streamlined and straightforward with support at every step. You’ll have help with onboarding and setup, training and customer/team collaboration. “Advanced Care” support offers phone, callback and messaging options. There’s a dedicated specialist team on hand to help with any workflow, automation and reporting issues. And, while ERP platforms are notorious for their steep learning curves, your team will quickly adapt to the intuitive layout and straightforward navigation system. 

Advanced security

With QuickBooks Online Advanced, you and your customers have the peace of mind of robust, scalable and advanced protection for sensitive data. Automatic backups ensure you can recover your data in the event of data corruption, system failures or accidental deletions, while advanced encryption protocols protect your data in transit and at rest. Your clients can rest assured that your data handling capabilities align with best practices and regulatory compliance.
