Although we’ve been in the UK accounting market for over 40 years, our North American story began in 2019, when we acquired IRIS Practice Engine, a pioneering Cloud-based practice management software based in the US. In the same year, we broadened our practice management offering further with IRIS Star Practice Management, leaders in advanced practice management solutions to CPA firms in the US, Canada and Caribbean Islands.
Since then, we’ve continued to build our business in North America, providing accounting solutions to half of the top 100 CPA firms, focused on improving productivity and processes, freeing up their time to deliver real value-add services to customers.
We recognize the huge value accountants’ knowledge and experience can bring to their clients’ business. So, our overarching goal is to create the time and provide the tools for accounting firms to do exactly that – add value.
