Our firm is looking to switch to either Ultratax or CCH Axcess. Anyone want to share what they love/hate about either? Or any quirks we should be wary of? Mostly just going to be 1040's, 1120s', and a handful of 1065's. We'll have 8 users and possibly going up to 25 before we think about switching again (5 years or so.)

Cch axcess is better IMO

like

What do you like about it? Or what is better about it in your opinion?

If you have mostly simple returns go with Ultratax. CCH is much more powerful and is 1000% better if you have any complexity, multi state, and/or international forms.

like

good to know. We do have a few returns I would consider complex and have foreign income and related forms

Ultra tax can handle simple returns but CCH Axcess is WAY more robust.

like

Onesource

Start left and go right for more complex returns. Left side better if you handle more basic returns. Right for partnerships, corporate returns

ProSystem > CCH Access > GoSystems > OneSource

CCH sucks for trust returns. Onesource is significantly better.

Those of you who left for industry, what do you work towards in your role? I was reflecting on my time in public and there was always something, whether it was a new section in the file, getting more client contact, getting invited to a big golf outing, running the jobs, managing the jobs, etc. I worry that leaving would leave me bored and not motivated to hit any sort of goal. I’m burnt out and worry that I’m making a rash decision lol. Thoughts?
