I looked at Bench but ultimately decided to stick with QBO and an outsourced bookeeper instead of switching over to the Bench software. During discovery calls, they had reservations about going fully accrual, which we would want as we scale. We also were hesitant to fully switch off of QBO as the network / integrations around it are established. Looking in the future, I also think more robust software platforms like Netsuite will have established processes for switching from QBO compared to switching from Bench. We went with Acuity for our outsourced accounting service, but also looked at Paro as well and liked both.

i just signed up for a year. It seems really good. I estimated the price of the product to be about 8 hours and i do not want to spend that time on accounting/tax stuff.
