## Overview

### Key benefits of Accounting Power

Automated ACH and tax transmission: IRIS moves the money and files the returns, so your firm does not have to be Reporting Agent or Power of Attorney (POA). 

Built only for accounting firms: No small business can buy Payroll Relief direct, so IRIS has no route to your client. 

Wholesale pricing: The margin on the payroll service line stays inside your firm. 

Batch processing: Lets your firm approve multiple client payrolls, print paychecks and file year-end tax forms for many employers at once, from a single screen. 

White-label the platform: Payroll reaches your clients under your firm's brand rather than ours. 

Employee self-service: For pay statements, W-2s and personal details. 

Integrations: Across general ledger, time and attendance, workers comp, 401(k), Earned Wage Access and employment verification, including QuickBooks, Sage and Accounting CS.

### "Get away while you can" — 2.0/5

> **Rogelio** | *18 March 2021* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We decided to make the switch to the cloud. We didn't like the "Per Company" pricing model that most companies had and thought we would try out this product.
> 
> **Cons**: We encountered various backend issues that the support team had no response. Transactions would duplicate on their own, transactions wouldn't have offset accounts. We even had one case where one year worth of data for a client was completely erased. Support had no idea what the problem was and wouldn't even bother investigating why this was happening. Bank rules are very limited. Reporting is limited. You are not able to generate a simple profit and loss for a specific date range, only period to period.
> 
> Horrible. Stay away if you can. Their payroll solution works like a charm, but I would stay away from their accounting suite. Lots of glitches and very limited in use. We would spend more time fixing issues caused by the program then we would doing write up work.

### "Great Cloud Based Accounting Software if You Don't Mind the Customer Service" — 5.0/5

> **Bessy** | *29 September 2020* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We do all of the accounting for our clients on this software. 

1) It is flexible because it lets clients do as much or as little as they want
2) I can import from other apps such as Payroll Relief for a much quicker reconciliation
3) It is very straightforward
> 
> **Cons**: 1) Customer service leaves a lot to be desired.
2) When there is a technical issue they do not inform customers
> 
> We use all of the Accountant World apps. The software is easy, straightforward, cloud based and very flexible. We put up with the customer support because the software is good.

Direct deposit, tax payments, tax form e-filing. and child support remittance are transmitted for you, so your firm does not have to become a Reporting Agent or Power of Attorney (POA), and IRS and state notices do not land on your desk. \n\nBecause it is sold only to the profession, no small business can buy Payroll Relief directly. IRIS has no route to your client, even in principle, and the platform is white labeled. Payroll reaches your clients under your firm's brand rather than ours, unlike national payroll providers that partner with firms and then sell to those firms' clients, and unlike bureau platforms that hand you full ACH and tax transmission liability. \n\nYou get automated ACH and tax transmission, After-the-Fact payroll, employee self-service, direct deposit and check printing, W-2 and 1099 processing and payroll reporting, plus integrations across general ledger, time and attendance, workers comp, 401(k), Earned Wage Access and employment verification. Wholesale pricing keeps the margin on the service line inside your firm. \n\n4,000+ accounting and payroll firms run payroll on the AccountantsWorld platform from IRIS, and 56 of the top 100 US accounting firms use IRIS products. Sold to the accounting profession and nowhere else, since 2000.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/e0875560-17e1-4044-a96b-1a17b75319e0.jpeg","url":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2059104/accounting-power","@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2059104/accounting-power#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","bestRating":5,"ratingCount":14,"ratingValue":4.1},"offers":{"price":"1495","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud"},{"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2059104/accounting-power#breadcrumblist","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Accounting Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/236/accounting/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Accounting Power","position":3,"item":"/software/2059104/accounting-power","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
