                 There
                are over 1.1 million accountants in the United States today.
                Accounting software has continued to advance at a rapid rate.
                What once helped keep the books straight by managing things like
                invoicing, expenses, and tracking accounts and receivable, has
                now evolved to offer a variety of financial management tools,
                powerful analysis features, and time-saving report generation.
                As can be guessed, accounting software can range from $150
                desktop applications to the powerful systems used by major
                accounting firms to handle massive amounts of data for their
                corporate clients. When looking for accounting software, be sure
                to look for a package that fits your business needs. For many
                small business, lower priced desktop accounting software like
                Quickbooks and Peachtree should be sufficient.
