CheckStream makes depositing checks easy, secure, and fast. We used to let checks pile up, then walk them to our bank. We kept a spreadsheet of each check so we could reconcile each payment in Quickbooks Online.
Now CheckStream does all of that for us. It saves us hours every month and gets money in our account faster.
