Of course, you can recommend specific accounting software that you prefer, but some clients are very specific about which accounting software they want to use.
So bookkeepers & accountants might have a couple clients using Zoho Books, and then others using QBO, QBD, Xero, SAGE business cloud, Priority etc
The DOKKA partner license caters for this, and allows bookkeepers and accountants to connect each client to the company they want to use. So a bookkeeper with a 100 clients might have 50 clients using Zoho Books, 20 using Quickbooks Online, and 30 using Xero, and that’s perfectly fine.
Using the DOKKA self serve system, you can add new clients onto the DOKKA platform in seconds, and connect them to their chosen accounting software in seconds.
