I have to wait for the reports at the end
of the month because expenses and
sales are not tracked real-time.
Data processing can easily take up 70%
of my time!
Research, Testing & Co-Creation
Gathering and implementing user feedbacks
We serve as the bridge for the lack of
system integration.“
“
“
Good accounting software can only do
‘fixed’ forecasting. There are so many
external factors, we always have to
adjust the forecasting result manually.
“
If it means to sacrifice processing speed,
I would rather not upload images. I
doubt there are many people upload
images to their accounting software.
