Before shortlisting, verify that your bank and payment processors are in Bench's integration list—while coverage is broad, some regional or niche payment systems may not sync automatically, requiring manual ...Read more

Satisfied beyond belief with Bench

After vetting several bookkeeping/tax companies, I decided to go with Bench because of their full-service options to guide me step-by-step through the process (as opposed to me having to do a bunch of work to sort through documents on my own) as well as their commitment to establishing (and publicly reporting on) greater equality for women and BIPOC in their company's employment. They weren't the least expensive, but I'm so glad I didn't let that deter me. Any money I could have saved has ...

Dana was great to work with for my retro bookkeeping. I had an account that was difficult to manage and she made sure to communicate with me and bring someone in to be sure it was handled correctly. I really appreciate her hardwork!

Great Customer Service and overall experience. Thank you Bench!

We have used Bench for the past 9 months or so and have been very pleased. I like that our personal bookkeeper and team is available for questions in the messaging feature and that I can schedule calls as needed. The onboarding team was also extremely helpful as we got all of our accounts set up and off the ground. Overall, it’s been a relief to hand off our books, thank you Bench!

Bench Retro Bookkeeping

Bench accounting and my retroactive Bookkeeper Lauren were highly professional, personable, and in general wonderful to work with. I am a small business owner with a lot of anxiety and a certain amount of Trauma related to roughly 3 years of books that hadn't been fully organized. I started my business only a few months before COVID started, during a stressful time in my life. When COVID hit I was fully engaged with taking care of my own needs and the needs of my family, and didn't have ...

We were operating under a tight timeline and the Bench retro team was able to get everything we needed taken care of quickly and efficiently. Their level of communication is top-notch throughout the process and I would urge companies to use them!

Literally Life Saving

A friend recommended them to me and I feel like my life has been saved. I wish I knew about Bench 5 years ago. My bookkeeper Lauren V. Held my hand through the entire process. The pace was steady and the responsiveness was above expectations. I feel like a new person! I feel proud of myself and I am really impressed with the financial view of my business.

I have only been with Bench for a couple months now, but I love how streamlined the interface is! It makes it very easy to see your finances. The bookkeepers are on top of it and reply quickly too.
