Zap Accounting "Software" is a simple yet sophisticated Bookkeeping Solution for Individuals, Sole Proprietors, Partnerships, S-Corps, LLC's, LLPs, and Real Estate Investors. CPAs, Corporate Accountants, Auditors and Divorce Attorneys like it too.
ZAP Accounting "Software" is an open-source, cloud based, data independent, double-entry Bookkeeping Software Solution designed in Google Sheets that puts you in full control of your Chart of Accounts, your Accounting Data and fully customizable reporting for the first time in Digital History. As an additional benefit our spreadsheet templates increase spreadsheet and database user competency and they can be used to teach spreadsheet, database and java-script programming too.
ZAP Accounting Software combines paradigm shifting Google Drive and Google Spreadsheet Technology, Small Business Accounting Best Practices and powerful accounting programming in a surprisingly robust manner. ZAP Accounting Software is "just" a bunch of Google Spreadsheets, but never under estimate the power of the word "just" nor the paradigm shift being delivered via Google Cloud Technology.
Spreadsheets have always been the proper digital platform for bookkeeping and accounting, not relational databases. Most small business owners and individuals do not realize the level to which CPA's and corporate accountants use spreadsheets for their reconciliation and reporting needs. Spreadsheets simply are the better platform for accounting, and the only reason you haven't realized that yet is because commercializing a solution in spreadsheets isn't nearly as profitable as controlling relational database solutions. And speaking of commercialization and profitability, we feel you are really going to like our pricing structure...
ZAP Accounting Software is licensed via a one-time licensing fee (of $1xx), and your licensing fee gets you much more than empty software. Your software comes preloaded with a year's worth of demo date. You get access to detailed setup and use instructional videos, access to our Facebook forum and more. Think of us as Monks of Old working for a global good with debits, credits, and technology as our tool. A Brotherhood of Benevolent Bookkeepers of sorts. For those who don't have bookkeeping needs but see benefits of global accounting literacy, donations are always greatly appreciated.
ZAP Accounting Software is a panacea for small business owners. ZAP Accounting Software helps experienced business owners begin healing from a thousand tiny cuts inflicted by bad software, expensive software and less than sincere bookkeepers and accountants. ZAP Accounting Software helps new business owners avoid the thorns related to bookkeeping and accounting that those before them have had to endure. There are no shortage of challenges on any commercial path these days thus there is no need to keep the complex bookkeeping kerfuffle in play.
ZAP Accounting "Software" is expected to replace most instances of Quickbooks Cloud and Desktop Solutions, Quicken, and most other web-based bookkeeping solutions within just a few short years. Few of the current software solutions are truly flexible, functional and/or user friendly. Most have extreme software bloat and/or navigational dysfunction, and pricing on many is inappropriate for the level of service offered. And once you figure out that your tax accounting/bookkeeping software should NOT be connected to other modules, like Point of Sale, payment processing, Invoicing, Accounts Receivable and Accounts payable, a lot of things will make more sense. At that time you may or may not keep Quickbooks in play for some things and not others. Time will tell.
We feel you are about to get blown away in a really cool way. We hope you enjoy the ride. For those this resonates with, please share it with others and remember to donate a little something from time to time.
