PALO ALTO, CA — (Marketwired) — 08/14/13 — Bill.com, the leader in integrated bill payment, invoicing and cash flow management solutions for businesses, today announced the results of a survey of accountants using the Bill.com service, revealing that almost 93 percent of respondents work remotely and there is a strong desire among respondents to go paperless. Indeed, 63 percent of respondents identified themselves as mostly paperless whereas almost 18 percent had already achieved a fully paperless environment.
“This survey tells a very clear picture — working remotely is the new normal and people want the flexibility of managing payments in the cloud,” said Doug SleeterFounder and President, The Sleeter Group. “Going paperless is a key driver for all these systems. Combining paperless documents with cloud-based payment solutions not only saves time, but it also saves money, improves accuracy, and increases collaboration between accountants and their clients.”
The survey questioned Bill.com accountant customers from both large and small firms. The desire to go paperless was given as the most important factor in an accounting firm-s decision to adopt Bill.com as its integrated bill payment solution. A close second was time savings. Firms also liked the ability to share responsibility with clients for the payment work flows.
Respondents found that before going paperless they managed accounts payable and accounts receivable inefficiently, struggling with manual processes and paper checks. Today, respondents find that they save time and money every month by using Bill.com.
