2014 Innovation Award Nominee: CCH Mobile
Apr. 22, 2014
Ask any tax professional and they’ll tell you two things that challenge them day in and day out…they have to be right all of the time and they never seem to have enough time in their day. They’ll also tell you that how they work and the demands of their clients are constantly changing and evolving.
Professionals need tools to help them answers quick questions that clients are asking of them on a daily basis, as well as, check key information to ensure that the work that is being done on behalf of clients is correct. Mistakes are deadly for any professional as it can lead to penalties and interest due on tax owed, not to mention the hit to reputation and business at the end of the day.
