Class today announced it has signed a partnership agreement with accounting and financial advice firm Countplus for the provision of SMSF and wealth accounting software.
Countplus practices will now be able to use centralised billing and supporting services when using cloud-based SMSF administration software Class Super, and Class Portfolio for administration and reporting for companies, trusts and individuals.
Class will also provide Countplus practices with dedicated resources for implementation assistance and transitioning portfolios to Class.
The agreement presented a unique opportunity for Countplus practices that had yet to try Class or were using Class software but had not transitioned all their portfolios, Class chief executive Kevin Bungard said.
“With accountants under increasing pressure from regulators, clients and competitors to improve their processing and reporting of SMSFs, it’s critical to have the right systems in place to meet these challenges,” Bungard said.
Countplus chief executive Matthew Rowe said Class software was already widely used across the Countplus network.
“This agreement acknowledges our ongoing relationship with Class, the process efficiencies delivered to our firms from Class software and our view of the benefits that cloud-enabled real-time solutions provide to our clients,” Rowe said.
