Executive Summary & Pricing

MultiLedger is a solid accounting system that contains all of the necessary features and functions that a small business needs. Solid system security, a good inventory system and multi-company support are bonus features found in this very affordable system. MultiLedger is priced at $399, which includes support for up to 10 system users; a complete accounting/payroll package is available for $548. While MultiLedger clearly does not contain all the bells and whistles found in some of the other financial products, users will find that what it does provide is an affordably priced, easy-to-use system that can accommodate multiple users.
