Synder has the edge in more precise and detailed synchronization and allows users to sync each transaction separately.

This granular synchronization from multiple sources also provides e-commerce businesses with the ability to accurately track inventory. In addition, Synder supports multicurrency payment synchronization that allows users all around the globe to work with all types of currencies conveniently. Furthermore, the Synder smart rule engine allows users to fill in missing gaps in their books based on indirect conditions, for example, to automatically set tax based on the location or apply a category based on the product name. And last but not least – the rollback feature is a win that is designed to constantly keep the books safe, if they want to change or re-sync the sales.
Helping Businesses Move Online
When asked about the impact of pandemic on businesses, Michael opines that the pandemic has made it hard for some businesses to move to the online model in the changed reality. A lot of companies did not even think they could exist as an online business. That is why, Synder puts a lot of effort into helping them find a solution to successfully move their business processes, including accounting, online with minimal resources.
Michael highlights that Synder has amazing expansion plans for the coming future! The company is planning to strengthen its positions in the US, UK, Canada and Australia markets, as well as to extend the list of features to cover all needs and pains of e-commerce and Saas businesses.
Michael says, “Synder makes the data flow of your business as easy as possible. And we’re sure we can do more in the future!”
