Did you know 86% of accountants believe technology will help significantly grow and support their practices over the next few years?
It’s safe to say the power of software is at the top of the industry’s mind.
So, despite the attitude towards the benefits of technology, why are many accountants still hesitant to adopt new tools?
Our theory: the fear of the unknown.
In a fast-paced world, knowing where to start is tough.
Which teams would benefit the most from new technology? What should be streamlined first? How would software impact the actual day-to-day of people? How does automation actually work? With the current state of the economy, is now really the right time to try new tech?
These are only a few of the questions circling the minds of accountants, creating analysis paralysis.
Let’s put some of these questions to rest.
Resisting change
Economic uncertainty still looms over most businesses, and accountancy firms are no exception.
Our research shows 60% of accountants report struggling to automate admin-related tasks due to budget holders’ apprehension about investing in technology.
The initial cost of investing in new tech can feel daunting and begs the question: is it worth it?
Well, if you consider that resistance to innovative technology may hinder your success, then yes.
Open-minded firms can reap the many benefits of automation software.
Think of it this way, when the manual work is all done for you, there’s more time to focus on value-adding tasks which help grow your business.

Time is money!
For an accountant, time is everything.
As the industry wrestles with a longstanding talent shortage, accountants are stretched thin between standard compliance work and value-adding services.
The reality is that staffing shortages aren’t easing up either, with a 36% drop in the number of accounting applicants between 2021 and 2022.
Accountants must ensure their specific needs are met so they can prioritise their customers, business and time.
Enter software automation.
The right software frees up accountants’ time by automating admin-heavy processes and ultimately streamlining workflows so they can reallocate their time where they see fit.
So how do you know which software is right for your firm?
