Business software for Kenyan SMEs

Accounting, payroll, POS & ERP software — set up, running, and actually used.

We help Nairobi businesses pick the best accounting software for their size, install Kenyan payroll and HRMS systems, fit out supermarket and shop POS with live inventory, and configure QuickBooks — eTIMS, VAT, and PAYE included — so your books match what KRA and your bank expect.

Seven systems, one integrated back office

Most Kenyan SMEs don't need every system on day one. We start with what's actually slowing your business down, then connect the rest as you grow.

ACCOUNTING

Accounting & financial management

We help you choose the best accounting software for SMEs in Kenya — QuickBooks, Zoho Books, or a lighter local tool — then set up your chart of accounts, VAT and invoicing so your reports are audit-ready from month one.

RETAIL

POS & inventory systems

Point of sale and inventory management for Nairobi shops and supermarkets — barcode scanning, stock alerts, and an offline mode that keeps selling when the internet drops.

CUSTOM BUILD

Custom ERP software development

When off-the-shelf software runs out of road, our Nairobi ERP developers build the missing module — production, logistics, or multi-branch reporting — around what you already use.

TOOLS

Statements, invoices & templates

M-Pesa statement to Excel conversion and ready-to-use business invoice templates, for the paperwork that shouldn't need a full software rollout.

QuickBooks, configured for KRA and M-Pesa

QuickBooks is a strong fit for most Kenyan SMEs, but it isn't built for eTIMS or KES payroll out of the box. We handle the parts that trip people up.

We're independent QuickBooks consultants and trainers, not Intuit — so our recommendations are about what fits your business, not what we're paid to sell you. For current QuickBooks Online, Desktop, or Enterprise pricing in KES, ask us directly: Intuit adjusts pricing and exchange rates affect the KES conversion often enough that a number printed on a website goes stale fast.

    QuickBooks vs. the alternatives

Sized to how you actually trade

A single kiosk and a five-branch supermarket need different systems — we size the software to the shop, not the other way round.

Small shops

Offline-capable POS software for supermarkets and small shops, so sales keep ringing up when the connection drops.

Supermarkets

Multi-till supermarket POS systems with centralised stock, supplier records, and shrinkage reporting.

Service businesses

Invoicing, CRM, and accounting for firms billing by project or retainer rather than at a till.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best accounting software for SMEs in Kenya?

It depends on your size and complexity. Many SMEs do well on QuickBooks or Zoho Books; retailers usually need something tied to a POS. We assess your invoicing, VAT, payroll and stock needs before recommending anything.

How do I convert an M-Pesa statement to Excel?

Send us your M-Pesa PDF statement and we return an organised spreadsheet with dates, transaction types, amounts and running balances, ready for analysis or import into your accounting software.

How do I connect QuickBooks to eTIMS in Kenya?

QuickBooks doesn't integrate with eTIMS directly. We set up an eTIMS-compliant invoicing workflow alongside QuickBooks so your sales stay reconcilable with what's filed on KRA iTax.

What does QuickBooks cost in Kenya?

QuickBooks Online is a monthly USD subscription; QuickBooks Desktop is a one-off licence. KES pricing shifts with the plan, user count and exchange rate, so we quote current pricing directly rather than posting a number that goes stale.

What's the best POS system for a small shop in Nairobi?

A lightweight, offline-capable POS that handles barcode sales, M-Pesa till reconciliation and basic stock levels usually covers a single-till shop. Supermarkets need centralised inventory and staff permissions across tills — we size the system to the shop.

Do you build custom ERP software, or only resell existing products?

Both. Most SMEs are better served by configuring an existing accounting, POS or payroll product. When a business genuinely outgrows what's available off the shelf, our Nairobi developers build the missing module around your existing systems.
