The Problem
For small and medium-sized accounting/tax firms, frequent hardware upgrades are a perennial challenge. As software becomes more powerful, it demands greater processing capabilities. Upgrading hardware annually is no longer sufficient.
Maintenance burdens include installing updates, service packs, and patches regularly. Keeping data synchronized across CPAs’ devices, juniors’ desktops, and bookkeepers’ home computers is challenging. Data loss from hardware failures can mean losing invaluable data and countless hours of work.
Tax season brings demands for short-term resources and temporary desktops that need to be procured with security and reliability in mind, along with additional workstations and office space.
Our Solution
Apps4Rent provides a single, meet-all-needs solution. Our Virtual Desktops help you take your entire accounting/tax desktop to the cloud, with all your software, documents, time and billing system, workflows, and more.
With our accounting Virtual Desktops, you no longer worry about processing power, as virtual CPUs and RAM meet all demands. We monitor machine resources and handle automatic regular data backups.
Our Virtual Desktops are provisioned from SSAE16 Type II certified datacenters compliant with AICPA requirements including GLBA and SOX. Scale up or down as needed – add users during busy season and remove them in leaner times.
