Excellent service

Paige Avery at Bench provided detailed information that helped me navigate the PPP forgiveness application process. She was professional, knowledgable, kind, and thorough, spending additional time researching answers for my less-than-typical circumstances.

Owning and running a business and not having the skills to do it all...

Owning and running a business, raising a family as a single-parent, taking care of aging parents, trying to navigate the challenges in life, anxiety attacks mixed-in with moments of depression, what next!? What was I thinking that I would have the time and know-how to keep up with my financials and all that is required when running a business…? Well, after years of neglect, I was forced to the realization that things will only get worse, I knew I needed help! But I was now more lost and ...

Great!

Has worked great so far. Good client relationship, regular communication, and up to date reports. Took a little time to re-work labels and sub categories on P & L but changes were easy to make with my book keeper. It is peace of mind knowing my business financial records are in good hands.

Bench - Right Decision!

Bench turned out to be the right decision for my accounting. It`s extremely helpful to have a clear overview of the business situation, it takes me only a few minutes of work each month and the Bench team is very helpful and super nice!

Fantastic Customer Service & Intuitive App!

I had the absolute pleasure working with Annie and Nathan. They were both polite, professional and and a delight to work with. Not only did they make the onboarding experience smooth, but enjoyable. The app itself is intuitive and straight to the point. If you are a small business owner like myself, who is looking to spend a small portion of your income to save HUGE amounts of time book keeping -- this is your one stop shop.

I wanted to love Bench, but my experience wasn't great

Describe the project or task the provider helped with: I turned to Bench to handle my bookkeeping for my content creation business. This year was big for me, so I had a lot of expenses on different credit cards to maximize my cashback rate. Bench did historical bookkeeping for 6 months and is currently doing my ongoing bookkeeping for 2020. What do you like best? The Bench system is simple and intuitive. It's very easy to get in contact with your bookkeeper via chat, phone, or ...
