One of the first problems users of bookkeeping software encounter is the complexity of the installation and set-up process. Speed-e-books was written to overcome this by first developing the program on a familiar and easy to understand platform, i.e. the Excel spreadsheet, and then by stripping out everything that really isn’t necessary.
The spreadsheet platform enables the program to be instantly installed simply by opening as you would any other Excel spreadsheet. This avoids the often complicated installation process required with other accounting software and the potential interference with other programs. The Excel bookkeeping spreadsheet platform makes the process more familiar to the user and so quicker to get to grips with.
The Speed-e-books program design has also incorporated a new way of looking at some of the system requirements and only asks for information that is absolutely essential. We call this Quick-Start. Other bookkeeping software will require you to enter the financial period end, the accounting basis and the VAT quarter reporting dates of your business. Many users are often unsure what these things are and what to enter. In addition to which, many bookkeeping programs are very unforgiving later on if you get this wrong.
With Speed-e-books you are only asked for a few basic details about your business and if you do get something wrong it is a quick and simple fix just to change your mind later. All such reporting and system parameters within Speed-e-books are instantly changeable without any repercussions.
Quite simply, Set-up takes a matter of minutes.
