A good way for small businesses to do accounting In the start-up phase I couldn’t really afford an accountant. Instead of an accountant, I invested in this software and it certainly did the job. The details of every deal is uploaded as and when it takes place, invoices are created making it easy to track expenses. The reports made by the software help in making financial decisions. It helped me with the tax calculations too

Good app for startups The app has all the basic accounting functionalities required for any business. Bookkeeping in particular is a great module.I used to work with Quickbooks before, but I switched to Deskera a while back. Have managed to stay on top of my finances with this app. Their chat feature is exactly like whatsapp so my team and I don’t have to bother each other for official communication personal whatsapps. This feature is especially cool because staying in touch with my team is very easy. I would recommend anybody with a small business to give it a try.

Think twice before starting a free… Think twice before starting a free trial with this company. I was interested in Deskera’s features, so I signed up for the trial and entered my credit card info. After a few hours of use, I was clear it was not a platform I wanted to use. I went through a cancellation process, but must have failed to complete it because two weeks later a credit card charge showed up. I emailed back and forth with their support 6 or 7 times to finally receive the answer that they just want to keep my money since I failed to cancel before the two weeks. Well, I don’t understand why a company that wants to provide a functional service would want to keep the money of someone who does not want to use the service, based on a technicality. But they do. So, make sure you get a cancellation email or something if you try and cancel. Otherwise, they are not going to be interested in refunding you whether you like, or use, their service. They are just excited about the $149 they get to keep.

Changing resources for a job Small businesses like mine have had to face an uphill task in resource management ever since we have started working from home. So I tried out Deskera after finding out that it has a resource management tool, I am pleasantly surprised with how efficient that tool has turned out to be. Assigning people jobs based on projects, rather than based on designation, really helped me eliminate any sort of confusion regarding job responsibilities. The interface is very smooth as well. Easy to figure out, and easy to operate, so that there are no gaps in my understanding of how it works

Easier to track cash flow Tracking day-to-day income and expenses for my shop has become a lot simpler since I started using this app. While I have dabbled in other similar software before, Tally and Vyapar, I think Deskera manages to give me the best of both in one place. It’s an all in all solid app and choosing it to run my business has been the right choice so far. There are some functions that would like for the product to have in the mobile version of the app, like the ability to get rid of unused/ irrelevant documents, but that doesn’t compromise the basic functioning of the app in any way, so it’s not a major concern right now
