IT for Accountants

XFER offers technology solutions to meet the needs of today’s money managers

Accountants are some of the most important people associated with a business, even though many of them aren’t employed by that business. Accountants are responsible for the collection, accuracy, analysis, recording, and presentation of a business' financial operation. While it doesn’t take a lot of high tech business solutions to balance a ledger, the use of today’s most dynamic cloud-based financial resources can present many benefits for accountants.

At face value, accountants use many of the same technologies that your administrative employees use. Various devices, productivity suites, cloud platforms, and security solutions are necessary to properly manage your business' money, and protect it from the inevitable problems caused by today’s near-ubiquitous access to information. At XFER, we offer a full cache of solutions that can be packaged to improve the efficiency, and security, of your accounting practice.

XFER Has the Technology You Need to Stay Compliant

Meeting regulatory compliance standards is important for any industry.

In the accounting industry, there aren’t that many technology standards that have to be met. At XFER, we know that no matter what regulations your organization has to meet, you need your data protected. To protect data we use encryption, access control, and other security and management tools to ensure your business’ infrastructure is safeguarded.

One compliance regulation that accountants are often held to is by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; and, while there are no specifications to meet, it does state that a publicly-traded company’s management team is accountable for establishing and maintaining internal controls and procedures that foster accurate reporting. If your organization needs to meet SOX Act compliance standards, the IT professionals at XFER can expertly design and propose changes your organization can make to its IT to help promote secure and reliable transfer of financial information.

Accountants are crucial to many business’ sustainability and at XFER, we work hard to ensure our accounting clients deploy the secure and reliable computing infrastructure they need to help businesses and individuals stay whole.
