The purpose of this research is to explore the transformative function of cloud accounting technologies on SMEs’ (small and medium enterprises) advancement of digital transformation. In addition to the review of current literature, industry publications and case study analyses, this research will explore how these cloud-based accounting systems are used not only for financial record keeping, but also for purposes of strategically reengineering operational workflows, decision-making processes, and competitive positioning. Specifically, this research will address five key components: real-time financial visibility, automation of routine functions, connectivity to the broader enterprise ecosystem, scalability and data security. The findings of this research suggest that by adopting cloud accounting technology, SMEs will have significantly reduced obstacles to implement their digital transformation, which will enable SMEs to be more competitive in an ever-changing marketplace. In conclusion, this paper provides strategic recommendations for small business owners, policymakers and technology providers.
