Having already embraced computerisation the adoption of cloud software is the next logical step for the business community. Anglian Cloud Accounting is a fresh face for an established accountancy practice focused on the development of cloud accounting for clients, both old and new.

In the short time since the division was launched a close working relationship has been forged with the leading cloud accounting software houses; indeed Anglian Cloud Accounting has helped one software house to produce a version of their software suitable for the differing reporting requirements of farmers.

By specialising in cloud software staff are able to keep at the front of what is a rapidly evolving industry.

They can not only direct clients to the most appropriate software packages but can also advise on which add-on packages can transform the basic records to a functioning management information system.

For example, the construction industry suffers a plethora of tax rules which impact on how it accounts for its transactions. One software provider is shortly due to release software which will cope with CIS deductions. Any construction company adopting cloud accounting needs to be aware of this.

Knowledge is a fine thing but why should businesses talk to Anglian Cloud Accounting? Does location matter when dealing with the Internet? Stephen Malkin of Anglian Cloud Accounting believes location is critical. He says that although many issues can be resolved remotely, however good electronic communications such as Skype are, there are times when nothing can beat a face-to-face meeting. As part of Whiting & Partners, Anglian Cloud Accounting has the benefit of access to an existing network of offices and it has been ensured that there are cloud accounting trained staff at every location who can help Anglian Cloud clients. In addition there is the benefit of the full range of services and technical expertise of Whiting partners available to our customers.

As they proclaim on their website www.thecloud.accountants : –

“Internet focussed, we can offer responsive support buttressed by remote access to your records. We can also give proactive advice and benefit your business because of that remote access. But what about when that is not enough? That is when you will feel the advantage of an adviser with an office near you in the Anglia region.”

The awards are in place to celebrate and recognise blossoming and established companies in Fenland that continue to thrive in their business.

The awards ceremony this year will take place Friday September 23 at the Braza Club where the cream of the crop of Fenland businesses will be welcomed to an evening of glitz and glamour. Whether you are a finalist yourself or simply looking to network with fantastic companies, this is the event to attend!

From a drinks reception, three course meal, entertainment and an evening of high attainment in business, you cannot miss the highlight of the business calendar for the area!
