The smarter, faster and more cost-effective alternative to NetSuite

If you’re a mid-sized, growing or multi-entity business, it’s likely that starter software or on-premise financial platforms are no longer fulfilling your needs. But is a full-scale ERP like NetSuite, which comes with large fees and lengthy implementation times, the only alternative? We say no, and here’s why.

Many mid-market businesses find ERP software like NetSuite requires significant customisation and costly adjustments just to meet their needs. Many more find themselves using only a fraction of the complex functionality these systems provide.

With 5 x faster implementation times and at 1/6th of the cost, AccountsIQ gives you everything you need to save crucial time each month and drive better business decisions without needing to manage the hassle of rigid, overcomplicated systems like NetSuite or other full-scale ERPs.

“AccountsIQ does everything we need and it’s an ideal fit for us as the next step up from QuickBooks. With QuickBooks, month-end could almost take the whole month! Now, we do it within five working days. Getting the results out quickly makes a big difference.”

"Running reports in AccountsIQ is quick and we've got the capability to do multi-dimensional reporting, which will be really valuable to us. I'd say it takes about one tenth of the time we're used to in Sage."

"Starter systems like Sage and Xero don’t really meet the needs of a complex business. AccountsIQ is a proper accounting package. It’s Cloud-based, user-friendly and meets all the accounting needs of an international business like IFX.”
