Crossbeam is proud to be associated with Xero, Unleashed Software, WorkflowMax and SmartPayroll - all New Zealand designed and developed online software systems. These operate through an internet browser and securely transmit data using the same technology as online banking.
These software tools are ideal especially when:
- you are spending too much time analysing data in spreadsheets (requiring regularly updates for changes)
- you are spending time re-entering the same information into separate systems (risk of errors)
- you are having trouble retrieving information about your customers
- gross margins fluctuate widely from month to month
- frequently out of stock resulting in missing sales
- your IT costs are increasing with supporting a variety of systems
- you wish to operate in more than one location
- you are looking for new ways of organising your team
- your business is changing and need improved visibility of what is going on
The online technologies improve visibility and make it easy to report/analyse. With real-time and accurate information, in combination with professional support, small-to-medium sized businesses will be able to improve their performance. Crossbeam can assess, implement, configure and integrate Xero, Unleashed Software, WorkflowMax and SmartPayroll. Below is an overview of the key benefits of these online software systems:
