Why Cloud Hosting

Same TaxWise. No local server.

TaxWise built its reputation on affordability and speed for high-volume, EA-run practices and community tax sites — but like most desktop tax software, it was designed for one Windows machine. Hosting doesn’t change TaxWise itself — it swaps the physical machine underneath it for a managed server your whole team can reach, whether they’re at the office, a filing site, or home.

01

Any Site, Any Device

Preparers at a community filing site or a home office reach the same TaxWise environment either way.

02

No More Passed-Around Files

Preparers and reviewers work the same return at once instead of trading a file back and forth.

03

Skip the Office Server Entirely

No hardware to buy, patch, or replace between filing seasons.

04

Your Data Survives a Bad Laptop

A crashed or stolen device at a filing site never puts client data at risk.

05

Scale Up for Peak Filing Weeks

Bring on temporary preparers for the busiest stretch, then scale back down after.

06

Nothing to Relearn

TaxWise runs exactly as your staff already knows it, just reached from a different screen.

Built For Tax Professionals

The TaxWise your staff knows, minus the office hardware

Full Forms LibraryFederal and state individual and business returns, including bilingual English/Spanish form sets.
Fast E-Filing & Bank Product SupportE-file federal and state returns and process refund and bank products through the same built-in tools.
Error Check & DiagnosticsBuilt-in diagnostics flag missing data and e-filing errors before you transmit.
Client Data ImportPrior-year carryforward and client data import work exactly as on a local install.
Multi-Office SupportFirms and franchises running several locations see one consistent hosted environment across all sites.
IN SHORT

The software doesn’t change. What changes is that a crashed office PC no longer means a lost afternoon during filing season — TaxWise keeps running on the hosted server regardless.

Security & Compliance

Security you can show clients

Tax data is the most sensitive information your firm handles — Social Security numbers, income records, bank details. Our TaxWise 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.”

Client Testimonials

Trusted by firms who can’t afford downtime

“We run a high volume of returns through TaxWise every season, and hosting means our seasonal preparers can log in from day one without us configuring a single new machine.”

Yolanda Reyes · EA, Reyes Tax Services

“Our site serves a lot of walk-in clients across two locations. Having one hosted TaxWise environment instead of two separate offices worth of computers has made scheduling so much easier.”

Frank Delgado · Delgado Community Tax

“Simple, reliable, and the support team actually answers the phone in March.”

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about TaxWise hosting

Is TaxWise hosting secure enough for client tax data?+
Yes. Your hosted environment runs on infrastructure with 256-bit encryption, multi-factor authentication, and SOC 2-aligned controls, which meets or exceeds what most firms run locally.
Can multiple preparers work in TaxWise at the same time?+
Yes. Hosting supports simultaneous multi-user access, so preparers, reviewers, and admin staff can all work in the same TaxWise instance without version conflicts or emailed backup files.
Does hosting support bilingual English/Spanish forms?+
Yes. TaxWise’s bilingual form sets work exactly the same in a hosted environment as they do on a local install.
Will TaxWise look or work differently once hosted?+
No. Hosting relocates the same Windows environment TaxWise already runs on, so the software looks and behaves exactly as it does on a local install. There is no retraining required.
Can I access hosted TaxWise from a Mac or tablet?+
Yes. Since TaxWise runs on a remote Windows server, you can connect from a Mac, Chromebook, or tablet using a remote desktop connection, not just a Windows PC.
What is the uptime guarantee during tax season?+
Your hosted environment is backed by a 99.99% uptime SLA, so your team has reliable access during peak filing weeks when downtime is least affordable.
How is pricing structured for TaxWise hosting?+
Plans are priced per month based on user count, RAM, and storage, from a Starter plan for solo preparers up to Enterprise for high-volume practices. There are no hidden setup fees.
What support is available if something goes wrong?+
U.S.-based support is available, including 24/7 priority support on Growth and Enterprise plans, so issues during filing season get resolved quickly rather than sitting in a queue.
