How to choose

• Who will keep the books: the business itself, an accounting firm, or a service that does the bookkeeping for you?
• Does it file the taxes you need where you operate, such as VAT returns, sales tax or e-invoicing?
• Which banks, payroll and payment apps does it connect to today?
• Can your accountant work in it alongside you, and how is that priced per client?
