<div><br></div><div></div><a href="http://www.beansbooks.com" target="_blank">www.beansbooks.com</a><div><br></div><div>BeansBooks was designed to solve an efficiency and scaling challenge at System76. As we grew, it became increasingly difficult to manage accounting and due diligence. Accounting simply wasn’t integrated into all of the other systems that run the company. We searched for a pre-built solution that was extensible and easy to use. It didn’t exist, so we built one. We also realized that the challenges we faced were not our own. Instead of building a private system for ourselves, we built an Open Source platform broad enough to fulfill the needs of most companies.</div>
<div><br></div><div>We’ve been designing, developing and testing BeansBooks for fourteen months. System76 has used the platform internally since November 2012. We’ve experienced the enormous benefits of real time, easy, integrated accounting. We’re excited to finally deliver the same potential to all businesses.</div>
