What if you could have one programme that integrated all of the essential functions of the day-to-day management of your business? This is where a quality enterprise resource planning (ERP) programme comes into its own. Enter Pronto Xi ERP software: a cloud-based business management and analytical solution from Aussie company Pronto Software.

Pronto Xi business management software combines the functionality of many other business management software programmes into one package. At Darcy Bookkeeping & Business Services, we find that many of our smaller business clients are using either MYOB or Xero for their bookkeeping and accounting software. On top of that, they may also be using a separate POS software programme and yet another rostering software programme. They may even have the POS and rostering software programmes integrated with their main small business accounting software programme. However, there is often double handling of data and it can seem a bit clunky, especially as the needs of the business grow and evolve.
Pronto Xi business management software eliminates this clunkiness and holds all of your business management data in one place. It is fully integrated and easy to navigate. Thanks to this, you can make business decisions with real-time data, ensuring that your decisions are informed and based upon the most current information at hand.
