It integrates client/CRM and client communications, a client portal and secure file exchange with e-signatures, workflow/projects/tasks and automation, and time, billing, invoicing, and payments—plus add-ons focused on tax workflows such as transcripts/notices and tax resolution. The product is positioned to replace multiple separate tools with a single consolidated platform.
