## What sets Snad apart

- **One database, not linked programs.** A sale draws down stock, posts its accounting entry and reaches the report before you close the screen.
- **Invoice in your customers' currency.** The currency on your customers' documents is independent of the currency you pay us in.
- **The tax rate is configured, not assumed.** Set the rate that fits your business and each branch once; the software applies what you configure, and deciding the correct rate stays with your accountant.
- **Branches across countries, one report.** Each branch carries its own balance, currency and rate, and the group reads together with no manual consolidation.
- **Every app on every plan.** Plans differ by how many users you have and how many apps run at once — not by features.
- **Running today.** You open the account and switch on what you need the same day: no setup fee, no minimum number of users, no implementation team.
- **No government-portal integration in this edition.** Snad issues invoices with sequential numbering, a QR code and a digital signature, keeps the archive and exports it in standard formats.
