What we look after

The IT a busy practice depends on.

From secure client document exchange to the software you live in at year-end, we look after the technology a Kent accountancy practice relies on every day.

  • · 01

    Practice software, kept running

    We look after the IT around the software you work in, the devices, logins, printing and connections that Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, IRIS or TaxCalc depend on, and we deal with the vendor when the issue is theirs.

  • · 02

    Client data, kept confidential

    Financial records are about as sensitive as data gets. We keep them encrypted, access-controlled and backed up, with secure document exchange so nothing sensitive goes out over plain email.

  • · 03

    Email and invoice-fraud protection

    Finance teams are the prime target for invoice and payment-redirect fraud. We harden Microsoft 365, switch on multi-factor authentication and set up the checks that stop a spoofed email costing you.

  • · 04

    Ready for busy season

    Downtime in the run-up to the 31 January deadline is not an option. We make sure your systems, backups and remote access are solid before the busy period, not during it.

  • · 05

    Making Tax Digital and the cloud

    We help you move to cloud accounting and Microsoft 365 cleanly, with the secure, compliant setup that Making Tax Digital and your professional body expect.

  • · 06

    Cyber Essentials and assurance

    Some client contracts and insurers now ask for Cyber Essentials. We put the technical controls in place and help you through certification.

The day-to-day services behind this are the same ones we provide every business: Microsoft 365, cybersecurity and Wi-Fi and networking, set up for the way accountants actually work.

Why accountants are different

Downtime is not just annoying, it is a missed deadline.

  • 01

    The data is highly sensitive

    Client financial records and personal details are exactly the data regulators and your professional body expect you to protect.

  • 02

    Deadlines are immovable

    Self-assessment and filing dates do not move for an IT problem, so the systems behind them cannot fall over.

  • 03

    You are a fraud target

    Practices handle money and payment instructions daily, which makes email security and staff awareness essential, not optional.

FAQs

Common questions from accountants.

Anything we have missed? Drop us a line and we will happily talk it through, no obligation.

  • A.01

    Yes. We support the IT around practice software like Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, IRIS and TaxCalc, the devices, logins, connections and printing they rely on, and we deal with the software vendor when the issue sits with the application itself.

  • A.02

    Yes, and we strongly recommend it. We harden Microsoft 365, switch on multi-factor authentication, set up anti-spoofing and help the team spot payment-redirect scams, which target finance teams more than any other.

  • A.03

    That is exactly the right time to call us, well before January. We check your backups, remote access and core systems are solid, so the busy period is not where you find out something was not.

  • A.04

    Yes. We put the technical controls in place, access control, multi-factor authentication, patching and secure configuration, and guide you through certification, which some client contracts and insurers now ask for.

  • A.05

    No. Ashford is our base, but we support accountancy and bookkeeping practices across the whole of Kent, on-site where it is needed and over a secure remote session where it is quicker.
