New Simply Accounting Payroll Software From ACCPAC Gives Small Businesses A Low Cost, High Function Payroll Alternative
Simply Accounting Payroll Operates Alone or Integrates Directly With MYOB, QuickBooks, and Simply Accounting Versions 6.0 - 9.0
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Nov. 5 /CNW/ -- ACCPAC International, Inc., a subsidiary of Computer Associates International, Inc. (NYSE: CA - News), announced today the release of Simply Accounting(R) Payroll, a new, standalone Canadian payroll package that also integrates with Simply Accounting versions 6.0 to 9.0, MYOB(R), and Intuit(R) QuickBooks(R) accounting software. The MSRP of $129 (CAD) includes up to one calendar year of employee tax calculation tables at no additional charge.
New Simply Accounting Payroll provides full function payroll for an unlimited number of employees. Its ability to integrate with several all-in-one accounting packages gives small businesses an option to reduce costs and break away from the forced annual accounting software upgrade typically required for maintaining payroll within those products. For example, users of QuickBooks can save up to 46% in their first year software maintenance costs. Businesses that do not use accounting software can use Simply Accounting Payroll on its own, with the full confidence of working with a system developed by the makers of Canada's #1 selling, award-winning accounting system.
"There are hundreds of thousands of small businesses in Canada who will benefit from the combination of powerful payroll features, tax table updates, low cost, and flexible integration that Simply Accounting Payroll offers," said Scott Garell, Senior Vice President, ACCPAC Small Business Group. "QuickBooks users in particular will find great value in lower payroll-related costs and the ability to continue using QuickBooks if they desire, without fear of a forced payroll compatibility upgrade. MYOB users who no longer have the benefit of Canadian payroll service from the manufacturer now have a simple, low cost payroll option. This product saves small businesses money and lets them focus more on running their business."
Simply Accounting Payroll benefits from over 15 years of ACCPAC payroll development experience that has resulted in top quality, integrated payroll software that is easy to set up and easy use and offers a low cost to operate. Its many features include:
