Access Drake Tax from anywhere, anytime.
Securely hosted in the cloud with high availability, bank-grade encryption, and zero IT headaches — running the same Drake Tax your team already knows.

Same Drake Tax. No local server.
Drake Tax is a favourite among small and midsize firms for its pricing, speed, and form coverage — but it was built around a Windows desktop install. Firms that want to work from a Mac, support a remote team, or scale past one office outgrow it. Hosting solves that without changing the software: your returns, client data, EFIN setup, and add-on modules run on a secure remote server your team reaches from any device.
Work From Anywhere
Prepare and review returns from home, a client site, or on the road — any device, any time of year.
Multi-User Collaboration
Preparers, reviewers, and admin staff work in the same instance simultaneously — no version conflicts, no emailed backups.
No Local Server Headaches
Skip the cost of an in-office server, workstation upgrades, and manual backup routines.
Built-In Disaster Recovery
Automated, redundant backups mean a crashed laptop never puts a filing deadline at risk.
Seasonal Scalability
Add seasonal preparers during tax season, scale back after — pay only for what you use.
Zero Learning Curve
Your team logs in and Drake Tax looks and behaves exactly as it does today.
Everything you already use — without the limits
Hosting simply relocates the Windows environment Drake Tax was built for. There’s no re-training and no workaround — your team logs in and gets to work.
Security you can show clients
Tax data is the most sensitive information your firm handles — Social Security numbers, income records, bank details. Our Drake Tax environment is built around IRS Publication 4557 and FTC Safeguards Rule–conscious practices, giving you documentation for your own compliance obligations. When a client asks how their data is protected, “hosted with SOC 2–aligned controls” is a very different answer than “on the front-desk PC.”
Data encrypted in transit and at rest
Multi-factor authentication on every login
Point-in-time recovery, always current
Data centre infrastructure controls
Information security management
Payment data handling standards
Uptime SLA — your team isn’t locked out during peak filing weeks.
Secure server locations, close to you
Our data centres sit in low-risk zones shielded from natural disasters, with enterprise power, cooling, and network redundancy — positioned to keep latency low no matter where your team logs in from.

Trusted by firms who can’t afford downtime
“We migrated our whole firm’s Drake Tax setup mid-season and didn’t lose a single day. The team handled our EFIN and client data transfer without a hitch.”
“Having five preparers working in Drake Tax at once, from three different states, used to be a scheduling nightmare. Now everyone just logs in and works.”
“The uptime during filing season has been rock solid, and knowing our client data sits behind SOC 2-aligned security makes it an easy answer when clients ask.”
