Hassan Safdar CEO at TruckersCall
5.0★
SaaS Development Review from Hassan Safdar
Built our entire product from zero and delivered beyond expectationsWe hired WebCraftio to build TruckersCall from scratch a full AI-powered Transportation Management System for the US trucking market and they delivered on every front.What they built is not a simple app. This is a complete fleet operations platform including a full TMS with dispatch management, load tracking, and fleet visibility; marketplace integrations with major US load boards so carriers can see and respond to loads in real time; AI automation that handles repetitive operational tasks without manual input; AI agents that work in the background to optimize workflows; and an AI chatbot that guides users through the platform and answers operational questions instantly.Every single one of these features was built from the ground up no templates, no shortcuts. The product is demo-ready and sophisticated enough to present to US investors and enterprise customers.What stood out most was their ability to understand a complex, niche industry like trucking and translate it into a clean, functional product. Most agencies struggle when the domain is technical WebCraftio figured it out.If you're building something serious in logistics, AI, or SaaS and need a team that can handle complexity without hand-holding these are your people.

I contacted Jay for some help with my tax return. He responded very quickly and we arranged an appointment within a day; he looked into everything very meticulously and gave me all information that I needed. He took time to explain things that nobody ever explained to me about a lot of different things. He answered all my questions very patiently and clearly. I couldn't really expect a better service and I fully recommend to others. From now onwards, I will only call Jay!

Molly Hall's Review Sourced from Google
Jay and his team have been an incredible support throughout my first year as a limited company. From managing my accounts and PAYE to guiding me through unexpected HMRC issues and corporation tax queries, he’s gone above and beyond the typical duties of an accountant.What really sets Jay apart is his proactive approach. He doesn't just handle the numbers — he explains what’s going on behind the scenes, helping me understand how corporation tax works and how to make smarter financial decisions.He carefully reviewed my accounts, identified allowable expenses, and structured my year-end in a way that legally reduced my corporation tax liability — saving me money I didn’t even know I could.Jay’s clear communication and transparency gave me peace of mind throughout what could’ve been a stressful process. He’s efficient, reliable, and genuinely cares about his clients.I feel much more confident running my business with Jay’s support and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to other freelancers, creatives, or business owners looking for trusted help with corporation tax and year-end accounts.

An accounting agency is a professional service firm that helps businesses manage their financial records. This includes tracking income and expenses, preparing financial reports, handling taxes, and ensuring compliance with financial regulations.
In short, an accounting agency makes sure a company’s finances are accurate, organized, and aligned with legal standards.
How can an accounting agency help businesses streamline finances?
An accounting agency helps businesses streamline their finances by organizing and managing all financial activities in one place. This includes budgeting, bookkeeping, payroll, and tax preparation.
By taking over these tasks, the agency reduces errors, saves time, and improves cash flow. It also gives business owners a clear view of where their money is going, helping them make smarter financial decisions.
Which types of companies benefit most from outsourced accounting services?
Small to mid-sized businesses benefit most from outsourced accounting services. These companies often don’t have the time or budget to hire a full in-house accounting team.
Startups, eCommerce brands, service providers, and growing businesses use outsourced accounting to save money, stay compliant, and focus on core operations. It’s especially helpful for companies that need expert financial support but want to avoid the overhead costs of hiring full-time staff.
What are the top-rated accounting agencies on DesignRush in 2025?
The top-rated accounting agencies on DesignRush in 2025 are:
What core and specialized accounting services do these agencies offer?
Accounting agencies offer core services like bookkeeping, payroll, financial reporting, tax preparation, and budgeting. These cover the basics every business needs to stay organized and compliant.
They also provide specialized services such as forensic accounting, audit support, financial forecasting, and CFO consulting. These are useful for companies with complex financial needs, growth plans, or legal concerns.
How much do professional accounting services cost in 2025?
Accounting costs vary depending on how small or big your needs are, who you hire, and where you're located. In 2025, accountants in the US typically charge between $150 and $400 per hour. Junior accountants or bookkeepers are more affordable, often ranging from $40 to $100 per hour.
Basic monthly bookkeeping services can cost around $300 to $2,500 per month, depending on how many transactions you have and how detailed the work is.
How quickly can businesses expect financial clarity and improvements?
Most businesses see financial clarity within the first 30 to 90 days of working with an accounting agency. This depends on how organized your current records are and the scope of services you need.
For example, cleaning up books or setting up new systems can take a few weeks. But once that’s done, agencies usually deliver clearer reports, better cash flow insights, and fewer compliance risks fairly quickly. You’ll start noticing improvements as soon as the agency finishes its initial review and puts systems in place.
What criteria should businesses use when choosing an accounting agency?
When choosing an accounting agency, look for:
Experience with your industry
Clear pricing and services
Certified staff, like CPAs
Good communication and quick responses
Modern tools for reports and tracking
Always check reviews or ask for referrals. A good agency should explain things clearly and help your business grow.
What red flags indicate an unreliable accounting partner?
Watch out for these signs:
Vague pricing or hidden fees
Slow replies or poor communication
No certifications like CPA or licensed staff
Outdated software or manual-only processes
Missed deadlines or frequent errors
If an agency can’t explain things clearly or makes you feel unsure, it’s a sign to look elsewhere.
What essential questions should you ask before signing with an accounting agency?
Before signing with an accounting agency, you should ask some of the following essential questions:
What services do you include in your fee?
Do you have experience in my industry?
Who will handle my account? Are they certified?
What tools or software do you use?
How often will I get reports or updates?
How do you handle deadlines and tax filings?
Clear answers mean they know what they’re doing and that you’ll be in good hands.
How does working with an accounting agency differ from using accounting software or in-house staff?
An accounting agency gives you expert support without hiring full-time staff. Unlike software, it doesn't just track numbers; it explains them and helps you plan.
Compared to in-house teams, agencies are often more affordable and more experienced, especially for small businesses. You also get access to the latest tools and tax updates without managing it all yourself.
What tools, reporting systems, and compliance platforms do top accounting agencies rely on today?
Top accounting agencies use tools like QuickBooks and Xero for bookkeeping, NetSuite for full financial management, and Gusto or ADP for payroll.
They also use TaxJar or Avalara for sales tax compliance and Fathom or LivePlan for reporting and forecasting. These tools help automate tasks, reduce errors, and keep businesses compliant with tax and financial laws.
