From the Oct. 2018 reviews of Cloud Hosting systems for accountants.

Right Networks Hosting is designed for CPA firms, accounting firms, and small businesses. Specializing in QuickBooks hosting, Right Networks can host more than 150 applications on the cloud. Right Networks is scalable, with three editions of hosting available to choose from, with users able to easily scale up to the next version when needed.

Right Networks currently offers 99.999 uptime using HyperRight Technology®, where users log into a pool of servers instead of a dedicated server, automatically routing users to the most available systems at the time of login. This reduces or eliminates downtime typically experienced during hardware failures or maintenance issues. Right Networks uses multiple data centers, that are located more than 2,000 miles apart and include redundant power systems, onsite power generation, and redundant battery backup. Data servers are secure at all times, with 24/7/365 onsite security guards, complete data encryption, and secure backups. Right Networks also offers a rolling 90-day retention of all data stored.

All programs hosted by Right Networks are mobile-friendly and can be accessed using any device including smart phones and tablets.  

Right Networks can host the 2016 or later versions of QuickBooks Desktop, with all editions available, including Pro, Premier, and Enterprise. Those without a current QuickBooks license can purchase the product directly from Right Networks if desired. Along with QuickBooks hosting, Right Networks can host over 150 additional applications in a variety of categories including Business Analytics and Reporting, Financial, Management, and Retail. Some of the applications available include Abacus, ADP, Bill.com, BillQuick, Certify, Drake Software, Expensify, Magento, SmartVault, SpringAhead, and Tallie. The product can also host Microsoft Office 365.

Right Networks is a licensed Intuit Premium Reseller, so users can purchase or lease QuickBooks Desktop directly.
