Accounting Software Expertise That Keeps Your Firm Productive
Your accounting applications are essential to serving clients and meeting deadlines. InnerPC has experience supporting leading accounting and tax platforms, including:
- Lacerte
- UltraTax CS
- CCH applications
- Drake Tax
- QuickBooks Desktop
- 1099 software
- Microsoft 365

The InnerPC Difference
InnerPC can move your firm’s applications, files, and desktop environment to a professionally managed Microsoft Azure cloud platform.
Your employees can securely access the same applications and information whether they are working from the office, at home, at a client location, or while traveling. InnerPC manages the environment so your firm does not have to maintain expensive office servers or handle complex cloud administration internally.
Our hosted desktop solutions can provide:
- Secure access from virtually anywhere
- A consistent Windows desktop experience
- Centralized accounting applications and client files
- Shared folders with customized permissions
- Simplified onboarding for new and seasonal employees
- Scalable resources as your firm grows
- Backup and recovery options
- Support for local and remote printing
Your staff focuses on clients. InnerPC takes care of the technology behind their work.
Accounting firms hold tax records, Social Security numbers, banking information, payroll data, and other highly sensitive client information. That makes your firm an attractive target for phishing, ransomware, account takeover, and data theft.
InnerPC uses a layered approach to help reduce these risks. Depending on your firm’s needs, your security program may include:
- Multi-factor authentication
- Managed firewalls
- Endpoint protection
- Email filtering and phishing protection
- Encryption
- Access controls
- Security monitoring
- Vulnerability management
- Patch and update management
- Data backup and recovery
- Security-awareness training
- Incident-response planning
Security is not treated as a one-time installation. InnerPC helps monitor, maintain, and strengthen your defenses as technology and threats change.
Accounting and tax firms may be subject to the FTC Safeguards Rule. Meeting the Rule’s requirements involves more than purchasing antivirus software. Firms may need a written information security program, risk assessments, access controls, multi-factor authentication, encryption, employee training, service-provider oversight, testing, and incident-response procedures.
InnerPC can help your firm evaluate its current security posture, identify gaps, implement technical safeguards, and organize supporting policies and documentation.
Our compliance-support services may include:
- Cybersecurity risk assessments
- System and data inventories
- Written security policies
- Access-control reviews
- Multi-factor authentication
- Encryption and data-protection measures
- Vulnerability scanning and remediation
- Employee cybersecurity training
- Backup and recovery planning
- Incident-response planning
- Service-provider security reviews
- Ongoing security monitoring
- Virtual CIO guidance
InnerPC provides technology and compliance support, while your firm remains responsible for determining and meeting its legal and regulatory obligations.
Technology problems become business problems when your employees cannot access applications, open files, print returns, or communicate with clients.
InnerPC provides responsive support from real people who become familiar with your firm, employees, applications, and working environment. Our published service commitment includes a 15-minute response time, helping your team receive assistance without waiting hours for a generic ticket response.
We support your firm throughout the year—and understand that speed becomes especially important during tax season.
