What's your go to tool to handle accounting and bookkeeping for your startup? Do you use a single software or a bunch of integrated tools? How much of this is automated? And what would you expect from a tool that aims to automate accounting end-to-end for startups?

We passed it on to another company. Not so long ago, we found outsourced accounting services in Singapore, and decided that they would deal with all accounting issues. This is often a good solution and cheaper than creating your own accounting department.

I decided to go with Paddle to outsource as much of this as possible, this allows me to have one invoice a month for all sales and outsource a lot of stuff, all the expenses are handled by an accountant.

Just a spreadsheet, but it's a wreck. Definitely need to start looking into software to track transactions we make, and YTD figures since we only have a spreadsheet for each month. Would be nice to just make individual entry's of incoming and outgoing with titles/labels, and optional description or comments. Shows monthly balance and transaction history as well as YTD

At a startup, accounting can be managed in-house or outsourced to an accounting firm. In-house accounting involves hiring a dedicated accountant or finance team, who handles bookkeeping, financial reporting, and tax compliance. Outsourcing accounting to a firm such as Accotax involves delegating these tasks to a team of accounting professionals who can provide expert advice and support.
