Tazk vs Excel & Spreadsheets

Q: Is Tazk worth it if I only have 5 employees?

Yes. Tazk's free Starter plan has no employee limit and no time restriction. Even a 5-person team loses 10-15 hours/week to manual spreadsheet work — data entry, formula fixes, manual invoicing, and stock counts. Tazk automates these from day one. The free plan covers basic billing, inventory, and payroll.

Q: Can I import my existing spreadsheet data into Tazk?

Yes. Tazk supports importing product catalogs, customer lists, employee data, and opening stock from Excel/CSV files. The import wizard maps your columns automatically. Most businesses complete the migration in under a day. Historical data stays in your spreadsheets for reference.

Q: What if I only need billing, not the other modules?

Start with just POS billing on the free plan. Tazk's modules are independent — you can use POS without touching Payroll, Leads, or Projects. Add modules as your business grows. No pressure to use everything at once.

Q: How much time will I actually save?

Based on customer feedback: billing time drops 60-80% (barcode vs manual entry), month-end inventory reconciliation drops from 2 days to 5 hours, payroll processing drops from 1-2 days to minutes, and GST report preparation drops from 3 days to 2 clicks. The exact savings depend on your current volume and complexity.

Spreadsheets are free but cost you hours every week. Here is an honest look at when it makes sense to switch.
