## Buying guides
- [Accounting Software for Small Business: How to Choose](https://softwarevetted.com/guides/accounting-software-for-small-business): Good accounting software connects to your bank, categorizes transactions, sends invoices, tracks expenses and produces the reports your accountant needs. Choose by what your business actually does: invoicing clients, selling inventory, paying employees or handling sales tax. Check plan limits on invoices, users and bank connections, and ask your accountant which software they prefer to work in.
- [Do You Need a CRM? What a CRM Does for a Small Business](https://softwarevetted.com/guides/do-you-need-a-crm): A CRM keeps every contact, conversation and deal in one place so nothing falls through the cracks. You need one when more than one person talks to customers, when follow-ups get missed, or when you cannot see what is in your pipeline. Choose by how well it connects to your email and calendar, how easily your team logs activity, and the price per user at the plan you will actually need.
- [How to Choose Project Management Software for a Small Team](https://softwarevetted.com/guides/how-to-choose-project-management-software): Start with how your team already plans work: boards for flowing tasks, lists for checklists, timelines for dated projects. Then check the limits that hit small teams first: seats on the free plan, automation runs, guest access, file storage and which views need a paid plan. Price the plan at the team size you expect in a year, not the size you are today.
- [Password Managers for Small Business: What to Look For](https://softwarevetted.com/guides/password-manager-for-small-business): A business password manager stores logins in encrypted vaults, lets you share them with the right people, and lets you remove access the day someone leaves. Look for shared vaults with permissions, admin controls and reporting, two-factor and SSO support, recovery options, and published independent security audits. It is one of the cheapest security upgrades a small business can make.
