I've been incredibly happy with Bench…

I've been incredibly happy with Bench Accounting. Easy to get in touch with someone over the messaging and get a quick response. I like the layout and easy to read reports. Knowing my books are well taken care of makes for one less thing to worry about as a small business owner.

Money well spent

Money well spent. Instead of hating my life this January going back through my horribly disorganized books to prepare for the cpa. I’ve already gone through Bench’s work and am stress free as I hand 2019 off for tax filing.

Superb software at an affordable price

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? Bench has a great interface with very useful functions on bookkeeping and interacting with accountants to get updates or ask any questions. Its services are accessible at a fair cost. What aspects are problematic or could work better? The software doesn't seem to recognize my bank account. So instead of receiving information on my monthly account, I have to scan and upload them almost always on a monthly basis. What specific ...

Friendly, responsive, and will help you UNDERSTAND your figures! They do all the work for you!!

My Bench team (yes, they're part of our business in our eyes!) takes care of our finances so that we can focus on the fun of running our own business. They are friendly, very responsive, and we love to see their messages with questions or comments pop up in our email where we can conveniently click "Reply in Bench" - how simple! Our Bench team has resolved our dread of trying to figure out what to put where, and they explain things so well and so politely to us, so that we actually ...

Peace of Mind!

As a small business owner, I have a million things on my mind every moment. I can’t explain the relief I feel now that bookkeeping isn’t one of them. The Bench team has been so easy to work with, and given me such peace of mind knowing I won’t have to scramble with a years worth of receipts for tax time and that all my books are rectified and in good standing! Thank you so much Bench!!!

Very satisfied so far

For the first time in many years, I'm not filled with dread at the thought of tax season. I've embraced the fact that I need support and help when it comes to organizing and managing my finances. I also need convenience and flexibility. Bench hits the mark on all of these needs. I would definitely recommend them to any small business owner who could use support with the bookkeeping side of things. It's a solid investment and worth every penny.

Great experience so far

The team is very responsive. They consult me with issues instead of "guessing" which account I want expenses in. There does seem to be a lot of turnover with who is managing my account but that hasn't caused me any problems.
