I want to ask about whether I should buy accounting software since we have 3 employees and client numbers are up.

I've got experience with this, gotta say: choosing accounting software depends on a few factors. Gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.

Another perspective: maybe the core issue with choosing accounting software is something else entirely. Think about it like this...

Yes, that's exactly how it is with choosing accounting software. The answer varies greatly by industry; there is no one-size-fits-all rule.

Exactly like that. Look where the bucket leaks; pouring water on top doesn't solve it.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

Let me summarize what's been said so far. Measure first, then divide. When the order is right, the debate ends.

Everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth. Of course, it varies if your situation is different.

We need to take it step by step. honestly hasty decisions become decisions you have to fix six months later.

Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's right. Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

do you think this works at any scale? when we decide withut measuring, we always end up in the same place.

My questions are cleared up, thanks. When making a decision, also write down the cost of reversal.

If you post the result here, it will help others too.

The cheap-looking path usually ends up costing more later. People defend habits, not processes. Resistance comes from there.

The biggest time-waster for us was not knowing who had the final say. I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

Let me speak from the other side; I'm on the supplier side. People defend habits, not processes. Resistance comes from there.

Everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth. Good luck with that.

There is something to watch out for... The real issue isn't the number but what it's based on.

Processes without records never improve, because you dont know what to fix. Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

For the record: the most common mistake in this area is relying on a single preventive measure. Go layer by layer — if one fails, the other stops it.
