Payroll With an Ag Focus
Payroll Built Around the Way Farms Actually Pay People
CenterPoint Payroll handles Form 943 for agricultural employees, piece-work crew time sheets and bilingual pay stubs right out of the box. Hourly, salary, seasonal and piece-rate pay all live in one system, so you are never bending generic business payroll software into something it was never built to do.
Offline, Desktop Installation
Built to Work Even Where the Internet Does Not
Rural connectivity is not always reliable, so CenterPoint can run as a local install with no dependence on a live connection. Your books stay fully functional in the field or the shop, with none of the downtime that comes from a dropped signal.
Unlimited American Based Support, No Bots
Real People Answer the Phone, Every Time
Our U.S. based support team averages 14 years of experience with CenterPoint. There are no phone trees, no offshore call centers and no per-call fees. Call as often as you need, for as long as you need, and you will talk to someone who actually knows the software.
Cloud-Based Multi-User Access
Or Access CenterPoint From Anywhere You Need To
For multi-location operations and teams that need to work from more than one place, CenterPoint Cloud gives every user secure, real-time access to the same set of books. Switch between desktop and cloud as your operation grows. It is your choice, not ours.
Multi Entity and Enterprise P&L Separation
See Every Entity Clearly, Without Duplicate Books
Family operations with multiple LLCs, partnerships or crop and livestock enterprises can track each one separately while still rolling everything up into a consolidated view for lenders, accountants or family meetings. No re-entering the same data twice.
Livestock and Equipment Depreciation Scheduling
Depreciation That Covers the Whole Operation
CenterPoint Depreciation handles both purchased breeding stock and equipment like tractors, combines and irrigation systems, calculating schedules according to IRS rules so tax planning is never a manual spreadsheet exercise.
Fund and Municipal Accounting
The Only Option Here Built for Nonprofits and Municipalities Too
None of the ag-only competitors in this comparison touch fund accounting. CenterPoint Fund Accounting manages grants and reporting for nonprofits, while CenterPoint for Municipals handles budgets and compliance reporting for cities and counties, all with the same trusted platform.
