2. History
• Before diving into the depth of the topic, let us first understand the
background or history of Tally and why Tally Server 9 was
introduced.
• Tally was an accounting software which has now evolved into a
complete business management software. It is now not only used to
record sales, purchase, debit note, credit note, journal entries,
Contra, Payment entries but also to file GST returns, prepare
summary reports, take critical decisions based on these reports, to
record employee database, maintain inventory, send emails through
Tally, SMS and many more features that are inbuilt, as well as some
features, are beyond Tally.

• All these features have made Tally the most commonly used
business management software among the SMEs as well as large
organizations in India.
• In a large company, that may have large data and many users, Tally
Server 9 acts as a back bone and provides additional support to
Tally ensuring the smooth functioning of the Tally software. Often
the issue of data concurrency arises which is solved by Tally Server
9. We will discuss it in detail further in this blog.
• Tally Server 9 magnifies the capabilities of Tally and improves the
overall efficiency of Tally in case of large data.
• Now that we know why Tally Server 9 was introduced we can now
discuss the important benefits it provides to the user.
4. Top 5 features of Tally Sever 9
• Data security
• Increased Speed
• Concurrency solved
• Monitoring tool
• Process optimization
5. Data security
Tally server 9 provides the
ability to hide the path of the
data folder. The path of the
data folder is where the Tally
data is actually saved on the
system. Restrict the access of
data to the particular system
by disallowing the Windows
user/user groups of system IP
address or name from
unauthorized users. This
security feature protects the
Tally data from theft,
unnecessary data alterations
and other data malpractices.
6. Increased Speed
Often when the number of users
increases by a certain number and
multiple people work on the same
company, the speed of Tally gets
affected because of which the waiting
time is higher than normal. This
problem is solved by Tally Server 9.
User will be able to work faster without
impacting each other’s access to the
data Immediate response during
concurrent data access increasing the
work performance of the users. Stability
with faster response increases the
productivity and reliability in the
organization.
7. Concurrency solved
Concurrency issue arises
since default Tally is single
threaded it cannot process two
user commands at a time
because of which the users
have to wait till the previous
user finishes their work. This
issue is called concurrency
issue. On installation of Tally
Server 9, it makes Tally multi-
threaded thus it works on
multiple user requests
simultaneously and eliminates
user dependency.
8. Monitoring tool
Tally Server 9 shows the real-
time data to the administrator
about which user is working on
which company, The amount
of time each user spends in
each company, the number of
entries they pass and the time
they take to make these
entries. All this is shown
through a real-time report.
Admin can control activities
like taking Backup, Restoring
data or splitting of the
companies, etc
9. Process optimization
• Using the monitoring tool the administrator/top management can
take decisions regarding manpower optimization, resource
allocation etc. It helps the organization to improve its efficiency.
• These benefits of Tally Server 9 not only improve the performance
of Tally but also help the organization to optimize its processes and
yield the maximum output out of its resources.
