Exponent gives you control over your client records, so that you can keep track of every key detail that might help you bring in a sale or provide better customer support later on.
You and your employees can leave comments about your vendors, assigning positive or negative points to each comment. The final tally gives you a clear overview of which vendors are the best to work with, and which are the worst, saving time and money for future projects.
Each client and vendor record can support as many addresses or contacts as you need. There's no built-in limit. The addresses can be used later on for Bill To and Ship To fields when you are handling orders, so there's no need to re-type information.
With Exponent, your orders are indexed and organized in an intelligent manner, so that your product sales can be analyzed later on. Each line item is tied to a product (and product version) record, and invidivual line items can be invoiced separately from others by simply highlighting the ones you're interested in.
The main menu for Exponent's Accounting section reveals how powerful the software really is: it can handle Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Assets (with automatic S/L and MACRS GDS depreciation calculation), multiple bank accounts, client credit card records, dividend income, equity (such as stock and mutual fund) portfolio trades, General Ledger, Invoices, Payroll, and a number of useful reports.
Exponent works directly with the Authorize.Net AIM API, so that payments coming in from your web site can go directly into your Accounts Receivable, General Ledger, and checking account—with a single click.
Forget about paying your bank for checks. Print your own, using Exponent. The software can print your checks on a PDF template with your logo on it, making your company look bigger and more professional.
Kiss expensive and cumbersome payroll services goodbye. Exponent handles payroll, too, and presents checks and reports in a manner that entrepreneurs (and employees) can understand. No more pages upon pages of typewriter text in all capital letters; Exponent does payroll the intelligent way.
If you ever put your business purchases on a credit card, you can use Exponent to reconcile your monthly statements for as many credit cards as you have. You can track expenses by employee or by General Ledger category.
Exponent's most amazing feature is its ability to do your taxes for you. Though there are always some exceptions for complicated scenarios, Exponent is equipped to handle IRS Form 1120S, the federal tax return for S Corporations, and can be customized to work with hundreds of other federal, state and local forms, as well.
