EmpowerFinancials

EmpowerFinancials provides accounting, payroll, and distribution software to what was then an emerging market for packaged software. Put simply, it is about recording transactions, reconciling banks and producing financial statements.

The natural audience is small businesses and their accountants. They also list Accounting, so expect those to show up in the feature set.

EmpowerFinancials is based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Their site is empowerfin.com.

Our checklist for this category: bank feeds, multi-entity support, and accountant access. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.
