FTX and beyond: scaling beyond QB with Accounting Seed and Salesforce

The collapse of FTX, a cryptocurrency exchange run by Sam Bankman-Fried, has shed light on the limitations of finance and accounting software for fast-growing medium-sized businesses. John Ray III, the new CEO, testifying in front of the United States Congress, highlighted that FTX used QuickBooks, a popular accounting software, but that it is not suitable for a multibillion-dollar company. QuickBooks is a great tool for small businesses, however, as a business grows, it requires more advanced features such as automation, scalability, and real-time reporting. QuickBooks simply cannot keep up with the growing complexity of financial operations.

This is where accounting and finance software like Accounting Seed and Salesforce come in. Accounting Seed is a cloud-based accounting software that offers a seamless, scaleable process for businesses. It is built on the Salesforce platform, which is considered as the most innovative business enablement technology platform. This allows businesses to have a single platform for all their operations, from sales and marketing to accounting and customer service.

One of the biggest advantages of Accounting Seed is its ability to automate many of the manual processes that are required for accounting. For example, it can automatically generate invoices, reconcile bank statements, and generate financial reports. This not only saves time but also reduces the risk of errors.

Another advantage of Accounting Seed is its ability to scale (read the detailed comparison between Accounting Seed and its competitors like QuickBooks, Sage and Xero). As a business grows, it can easily add more users, modules, and features to the software. This allows businesses to keep pace with their growth and ensure that their accounting processes are always up-to-date.

When Salesforce is integrated with Accounting Seed, businesses can get a complete view of their financial performance and customer interactions (read our case study of how we improved efficiency by almost 30% with seamless integration). This allows them to make better-informed decisions and improve their bottom line.

In conclusion, Accounting Seed and Salesforce are powerful finance and accounting software that offer businesses the ability to save time and money, while also providing the scalability and automation needed for fast-growing medium-sized businesses. They are a great alternative for businesses that have outgrown QuickBooks and are in need of more advanced features to manage their financials.
