Accountant Connect Expands Firms’ Value to Clients

Accountant Connect℠ is a free online tool designed to help accounting firms streamline their services for ADP® payroll and HR clients. It offers a unified dashboard where accountants can provide a wide range of services, from payroll management to tax advisory, business valuation, and HR consulting. By utilizing Accountant Connect, firms save valuable time and expand their role as strategic advisors, enhancing their impact on clients’ businesses.

ADP surveys show that many accountants feel the need to move beyond traditional services, while over half of businesses aren’t fully tapping into the insights and offerings their accountants can provide. This creates an opportunity for accountants to broaden their services, such as offering tax advisory, compensation benchmarking, and business valuations.

Key features of the platform include real-time access to multi-client payroll data, comprehensive tax resources like the U.S. Master Tax Guide, compensation benchmarking powered by ADP DataCloud, and business valuation tools to support investment and M&A activities. Accountant Connect also integrates seamlessly with accounting software like QuickBooks Online, ensuring efficient data transfers.

With its cloud-based and mobile-friendly design, Accountant Connect allows accountants to work from anywhere, improving productivity and client satisfaction. By offering higher-value services like business valuation and tax advisory, accountants position themselves as trusted advisors, driving their firm’s growth and strengthening client relationships.
