We’ve got some news to share, and it’s a big one. G-Accon is now officially SOC 2 Type 1 and GDPR certified. That’s not just another badge for the website. It’s a signal of trust.
And it means that the platform you’re already using to automate reports, sync data, and streamline your work is now independently verified for how it handles security, privacy, and compliance.
What Does The SOC 2 Type 1 Certification Mean?
SOC 2 Type 1 is a widely respected certification that evaluates how a company handles things like:
- Data security
- System availability
- Processing integrity
- Confidentiality
- Privacy
In short, it tells you that we have the right systems in place to protect your information.
You’ve probably heard of GDPR, it’s the General Data Protection Regulation used across the EU. And even if you’re not in Europe, it still matters. A lot of companies look to it as the gold standard for privacy and data protection.
That’s why we made sure we’re fully compliant. No shortcuts, no guessing we offer Just real protection for your data, wherever you are. So, what does this all mean for you as a G-Accon user?
- Your data is handled with strict controls
- Our internal processes are reviewed and tested by third-party auditors
- We’ve committed to transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement
And none of that changes how you use G-Accon day-to-day. You still get the same Google Sheets add-on that syncs with Xero and QuickBooks in real time, pulls live data, automates reports, and saves you hours of manual work. Now it just comes with a new layer of verified protection.
So, Why Now?
Honestly? Because trust matters more than ever. We’ve always taken data protection seriously. But getting certified, having an independent third party come in, evaluate our practices, and confirm that we’re doing it right, makes it real. It’s not just us saying “we’re secure.” It’s a stamp of approval you can actually rely on.
And if you’re working with clients, especially in finance or accounting, you know how critical this is. Trust isn’t optional anymore. It’s expected.

What’s Next?
We’re not stopping here. SOC 2 Type 2 is already underway, and we’ll be sharing updates as we move forward with the next phase of the audit.
Our goal is to keep building G-Accon into the most reliable, secure, and scalable reporting tool for finance professionals, without ever making it more complicated to use.
Why This Matters (Beyond the Badge)
We know most people don’t wake up excited about audit reports. And that’s okay; but behind every secure system is a team making sure nothing slips through.
This certification process helped us fine-tune those internal practices, pressure-test our policies, and strengthen how we work, so you can keep using G-Accon without second-guessing anything behind the scenes.You shouldn't have to think twice about the tools you trust with sensitive data. Now you don’t have to.
A Milestone We Reached Together
This isn’t just our win, it’s yours too. Every user, every team, every accounting firm or solo bookkeeper that’s trusted us with their reporting, this milestone is thanks to you. We’re excited to keep earning that trust and taking it even further.
If you’ve got questions, feel free to reach out. If you just want to keep automating reports and saving time, that works too. Either way, we’re here, and now we’ve got the certifications to prove it.
Live-Synced Google Sheets are changing how finance teams work, and if you’re still managing reports in Excel, it might be time to ask why.
For years, Excel has been the safety net. The default. It’s flexible, familiar, and powerful in the right hands. But when your “workflow” includes exporting five reports, reformatting data, double-checking formulas, and emailing around version 12 of the same file... is it really still working?
New tools like G-Accon let you sync QuickBooks and Xero data directly into Google Sheets, live, in real time. No more exports. No more manual updates. And way fewer mistakes.
This article isn’t just a pitch for automation. It’s a real look at the signs your team might be ready to move on from static spreadsheets, and why it’s easier than you might think.

If you’ve been digging around for spreadsheet-based finance tools, you’ve probably seen G-Accon and LiveFlow mentioned more than once. Both aim to simplify reporting and reduce manual data entry. But there’s an important difference, G-Accon integrates with both QuickBooks and Xero. LiveFlow doesn’t support Xero at all.
That detail matters, especially if you're managing data across different platforms.
Whether you're a solo accountant, part of a growing finance team, or working inside a large organization, this breakdown is for you. We're looking at G-Accon as a LiveFlow alternative, with a focus on pricing, flexibility, and how each tool handles real-world reporting needs, especially if you're not looking to commit to expensive, complex FP&A software.
Let’s get into it.

Managing multiple companies in QuickBooks or Xero can feel like juggling spreadsheets with one hand tied behind your back. Most small business accounting tools weren’t built for consolidation. But that doesn’t mean it has to stay manual, messy, or frustrating.
Today, there are a handful of reporting tools built specifically to help you bring multiple entities together, cleanly and clearly. Some prioritize visuals. Some are spreadsheet powerhouses. Some are just easier to use than others. This article covers five of the best options available—and why one might fit better than the rest, depending on how you work.
