The categories worth paying for
Prioritise anything that removes repeated manual data entry.
- Cloud accounting with bank feeds and receipt capture
- Scheduling or booking software if you take appointments
- A shared inbox so customer email is not trapped with one person
- Payroll that files RTI automatically
Audit your subscriptions quarterly
Software spend grows silently through per-seat licences for former staff and trials that converted. A quarterly review of the card statement usually finds several hundred pounds a year of dead subscriptions.
Integration beats features
A tool that talks to your accounting and payment systems saves more time than one with a longer feature list. Check integrations before you check the feature comparison table.
