Small companies and start-up organisations can help to improve the smoothness of their operations by investing in accounting software.

This is the view of Julian Smith of corporate technology firm MYOB, who told Dynamic Business that getting "the right business systems" is a key aspect of running a successful company.

He noted that, in addition to consulting with finance experts, implementing accounting software can help business owners to overcome many of the "common pain points" that face small companies.

These include dealing with taxation issues and compliance standards, as well as managing cashflow.

Mr Smith said: "It'll reduce the stress and make business life much easier."

Last month, Inc. Magazine noted that an increasing number of small and medium-sized enterprises are using accounting software to handle their payroll management.

According to the report, this ensures that staff are paid in a timely manner while making it easier to adjust for complications such as overtime salaries.
