The eternal question “I have just started a business, what accounting package should I use?” crops up time and time again. Now of course this site is dedicated to Sage but I do not sell Sage software, I merely help businesses achieve more with it so I have no real preference. Many start-ups go with what their accountant suggests. Of course this is good practice as it makes moving all the data to and from your accountant much easier. However if I had a pound for everytime I heard “I just want a simple invoicing program” I would have accrued a fair amount of money by now! The problem is that vendors think that by offering more features in their product it makes it more appealing….wrong! It just makes it more bewildering and complex to the untrained user. Sage Instant is a fantastic product, it just does what it says on the tin and is very cost effective. There are plenty of options in the marketplace so look around, what you after is an accounting system that allows you to remain productive so raising an invoicing should take less than 60 seconds.
