Do you use software tools to run your business? If you’re like 99% of business owners, the answer is likely yes.
You probably use more than just a single software solution at your business as well. According to research, on average, small businesses with up to 500 employees use 172 apps. In the digital age, a lot of business is done online.
That’s where software integrations come in handy. With integrations, you can connect software you already use to another tech solution. Integrations allow users to share information back and forth between multiple software tools.
At SumoQuote, we’re in the business of making life easier for hardworking contractors like yourself. That’s why our users can integrate their QuickBooks Online (QBO) account with their SumoQuote account.
In this blog post, we’ll walk you through what QBO is and how you can use our integration with it. Let’s dive in!
What Is Quickbooks Online?
QuickBooks is an accounting software solution designed to help business owners manage their finances. QuickBooks Online is the company’s cloud software that allows users to access their accounts and manage their finances remotely.
Business owners use QuickBooks Online for their accounting needs, from managing their cash flow to tracking sales and maximizing tax deductions.
