Accounting software for Australia One of the main reasons why businesses fail today is because there aren’t a good

accounts or bookkeeping system put into place by the sole trader/proprietor that

would provide enough warning that the business could run out of funds.

Business is changing in 2017 and technology is changing a lot of how we do business

every year. Accounting and book keeping has not been left behind and there have

been changes underway in the brand new online world.

XERO VS RECKON

If you want a detailed price comparison – you should check out my blog post here

for prices of accounting software in Australia. But just to give you a quick idea

Reckon starts their package prices for $5 a month and Xero starts their accounting

packages from $25 a month. With reckon the starter is just a bare bones package

and you will need to add some additional add-ons on starting which can increase

your monthly price, but with xero you get a basic package with enough to just get

started off the bat.
