Assistant to the proper selection of the accounting system for small business.

Each accounting system for your company, like any other product, has its own set of consumer properties and these properties you have clear idea. Before proceeding to analyze the proposals of suppliers of automation systems to uniquely decide for themselves what was originally to be able to do selectable system, and how and what can be refined later. Do not forget that the requirements for the acquired system should be described taking into account the anticipated growth of your company - albeit, some features of the system are not needed now but may come in handy tomorrow. I am absolutely confident that the introduction of the accounting system will be less painful if you advance, make sure that the proposed system is able to qualitatively solve your key challenges today. Free advice - do not believe the promises of vendors programs. After all, their main purpose for profit and for her sake, we are ready "vparit" any software prefabricated, hoping to still make money on adapting it for your business. Believe assurances "Revised to your basic requirements during the implementation process" means risking their financial investments, and most importantly "the loss of precious time." The level of compliance software to your expectations should be the main criterion in choosing a software system. The more the system now meets your requirements, the less your risk of an unsuccessful deployment. Considerations are very serious. Fact - only 30% of buyers "1C: Trade Management" fully satisfied with the data acquisition (survey was carried out after a year of "real" operation of the product).

It is always easier to get something ready and change for themselves, doing all the work from scratch. If the system solves the memo, then mark it with a cross. For example, already marked by features of the free universal registration system "KIS Lack».
