This document discusses when it is time to move beyond QuickBooks for accounting needs. It notes that as a business grows and adds more systems and spreadsheets to manage different processes, the accounting can become siloed across different systems without integration. It suggests that moving to a cloud-based ERP system can help integrate all the business data, provide real-time visibility and reporting across the organization, and scale more easily as the business grows without requiring additional IT resources or software upgrades. Moving to a full ERP system helps avoid the "hairball" of many disconnected systems and spreadsheets that commonly develops as businesses add applications piecemeal over time.
