No obligation · 100% free · For firms with 1–50 employees
The problem
Most accounting firms are one mistake away from disaster
If your tech feels slow, unreliable, or risky, you’re not alone. Here’s what it’s quietly costing you:
No WISP or FTC compliance
The FTC Safeguards Rule requires firms that handle tax data to have a Written Information Security Plan and a designated point of contact.6 Most firms don’t.
Slow, crashing systems
They kill productivity during your busiest deadlines. Every staff frustration is billable time walking out the door.
Downtime bleeding revenue
$1,000–$5,000 per hour in lost billables. A single 8-hour outage can cost $8K–$40K.
Data scattered everywhere
Home offices, in-office, remote employees, personal devices, and no reliable backup or recovery plan.
Phishing & ransomware exposure
Accounting firms are prime targets. One click on the wrong email can expose every client’s tax return and bank info.
Paying for tools you don’t use
Random vendors, overlapping licenses, à la carte invoices. None of it adds up to a system.
One mistake can cost you
