Hiring an accountant for an office or accounting role at a flooring store can be an absolute nightmare. That’s because most people don’t have experience with flooring-specific software. Learning a completely different accounting system can be even harder. Training from scratch on software they’ve never seen before takes up time your business doesn’t have.
That’s where the way Kronus Flooring Software is built makes a real difference.
Two Systems, One Workflow
Kronus Flooring Software doesn’t have a built-in accounting module. It’s a design decision, not an oversight. Instead of building a proprietary accounting system that forces your team to learn from scratch, Kronus Flooring Software runs QuickBooks Online. Sales and operations are handled in our system, while accounting is handled in QuickBooks. The two systems work together to prevent anything from falling through the cracks and there’s no separate processing between them.
For flooring store owners, this means you don’t have to choose between a great business management platform and a great accounting tool. With us, you get both.
The Hiring Advantage Nobody Talks About
Where does the QuickBooks integration have a real operational advantage? It’s in the hiring pool.
QuickBooks Online is one of the most common accounting platforms in the world. Millions of people know how to use it including bookkeepers, office managers, accountants and administrators who have worked with it throughout their careers. When your accounting lives in QuickBooks, you can hire from that entire pool.
Legacy flooring software with its own accounting software doesn’t give you that same edge. When you hire people for an accounting or office role, they are stuck learning your software’s accounting module from scratch as well as everything else their job involves. The result is onboarding taking longer, more errors during the learning curve limiting the number of candidates you can realistically hire
Kronus Flooring Software and QuickBooks work together — this lets your accounting hire know the system from day one. Rather than training them on accounting, you only have to catch them up on flooring operations. Onboarding doesn’t take long.
Easier to Train, Easier to Scale
Beyond the accounting function, flooring store owners are training people faster. Kronus Flooring Software is easier and less disruptive than legacy software.
That’s because our software is simple from day one because it matches how a flooring job moves. The QuickBooks integration makes it easy for accounting staff to pick it up and get working. You only have to train new employees on one platform at once rather than two.
For multi-location or businesses in a growth phase, this is a lifesaver. Every time you open a location or expand your team, you start the onboarding process all over again. A faster, smoother process causes less disruption.
More Affordable Than You Think
Flooring store owners switching from legacy software will notice the price difference. Legacy flooring software with its own accounting system as well as the support and maintenance costs of older platforms can add up.
Kronus Flooring Software is affordable, but doesn’t cut corners when it comes to capability. QuickBooks online subscriptions are widely accessible and your accounting staff likely already has experience using it. Because of this, running Kronus Flooring Software alongside QuickBooks is much more favorable than all-in-one legacy alternatives.
Affordable. Easy to use. Easy to train. And built to work with tools your team may already know.
The Right Tool for Each Job
The integration of QuickBooks into Kronus Flooring Software is using the best tool for each part of the job instead of forcing one system to do everything. QuickBooks Online is one of the top accounting platforms on the market and our software is built specifically for flooring operations. Running the two together gives your business purpose-built capability on both sides.
