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

I love Bench and recommend it…

I love Bench and recommend it constantly. They tailor the experience to my needs and are always responsive and attentive when I have any questions or concerns and their services go far beyond just the books.

I feel like we are on a team and they truly listen and take into account my particular ...

I was a little disappointed

I was a little disappointed. (1) Many of my accounts do not play nice with their automated systems, so I have to do the work myself each month of sending them statements.

Very happy

I'm a two-person non profit that is paying accountants for the first time, and I'm glad I chose Bench. Their system is advanced and easy to use, and the personnel that back it are real, helpful and super friendly (they are Canadian after al). I heartily recommend Bench.

Cannot imagine life without Bench!

I wonder how I survived all these years without Bench. Well, you don’t know what you are missing unless you really see the platform, experience the service and top notch communication from Bench. I started with Bench bookkeeping in the middle of 2020, which soon showed up as a huge blessing. I run multiple businesses and client projects. With the shut downs and at-home learning scenarios due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I needed a reliable firm to take care of the minutiae of bookkeeping for ...

I am forever grateful to Robert MacLean…

I am forever grateful to Robert MacLean at Bench for being a critical part of our team and helping us to navigate our books. Rob goes over and beyond and has expedited requests when we needed information for loans, and grants during this incredibly challenging year. Bench is an incredible asset to any small business and I am so glad to have the support.
