VL Solutions
Consulting
2019
Senthil Kumar, a manufacturing engineer turned consultant, founded VL Solutions in Chennai, India, to offer ERP and finance solutions for small and mid-sized businesses. Kumar's expertise comes from over 20 years of experience implementing ERP software for enterprise clients. In 2019, he turned to Zoho Books to manage his growing business.
VL Solutions operates in both India and the USA, and I needed software that could handle our multi-country operations, including different currencies and tax jurisdictions. Zoho Books does all that and more.
Before using Zoho Books, Kumar managed VL Solutions’s accounts manually with Excel, which was time consuming and inefficient. As a consultant working across multiple countries, he needed a solution that could handle complex accounting tasks while supporting multiple currencies and tax jurisdictions.
Excel just wasn’t cutting it anymore. We were spending hours tracking invoices, reconciling accounts, and managing client payments. It was clear we needed a more efficient solution to keep up with our growing business.
Kumar discovered Zoho Books in 2019 and was drawn by its simplicity and robust feature set. The user-friendly interface and automation tools allowed him to drastically cut down the time spent on accounting.
Zoho Books’ support for multiple currencies also helped Kumar manage VL Solutions’s operations across India and the US. The invoicing feature, paired with aging reports, allowed for better client management and timely follow-ups on overdue payments.
With Zoho Books, the transition was seamless. I didn’t need any additional help or consultants to set it up. The integration with banks and automated invoicing made everything easier, from client management to bank reconciliation.
Zoho Books has significantly streamlined Kumar's accounting process. With seamless banking integrations and an intuitive dashboard, he now spends just one to two hours a month on accounting tasks, a dramatic reduction from the hours he used to spend on Excel. The platform’s aging reports provide clear insights into overdue invoices, enhancing follow-up efficiency and improving client management.
Affordability and exceptional customer support have been crucial factors in Senthil’s ongoing satisfaction with Zoho Books. The support team is always available, whether through a chatbot or live assistance, allowing him to manage his operations without the need for a domain expert.
The transition from Excel to Zoho Books has also improved visibility into VL Solutions's financials. With Zoho Books's user-friendly dashboards and reports, Senthil can make better-informed business decisions while tracking overdue invoices and overall performance.
With Zoho Books, I hardly spend more than two hours a month on accounting. It gives me all the visibility I need, from sales performance to outstanding invoices, in just a few clicks. The support I get from Zoho Books is unmatched. They are always available and competent, which gives me confidence in the system
Senthil continues to rely on Zoho Books for both his Indian and US operations and plans to explore further features as his consulting firm grows. He looks forward to utilizing more advanced functionalities like automation and project management to streamline his business processes further.
Zoho Books has given me the tools to focus on growing my business rather than spending time on accounting. As I expand, I’ll be using more of its features to make my operations even more efficient.
