From sole practitioners to firms with 100+ staff, we provide secure hosted desktop services for UK accountancy practices — Sage 50, IRIS, TaxCalc and practice files in one managed workspace, accessible to the whole team from any location.
Move off a single office PC and get a properly backed-up environment for your practice software, without needing your own IT setup.
Give every office and every home-working member of staff the same access to the same practice management system, with proper access control by role.
Enterprise-grade infrastructure and UK-based support for multi-office practices, sized to handle your busy-season peaks.
We install and configure your practice management, bookkeeping and tax software inside the environment, checking licensing terms as part of scoping.
Files and client records live on infrastructure we look after directly, rather than spread across individual laptops that leave the building every evening.
We talk through your seasonal peaks — self-assessment, year-end — during scoping so the environment is sized for when you actually need it most.
Support from the engineers who run the platform, not a script-reading call centre — useful when a filing deadline is on the line.
Hosted desktop services for accountants work best when the apps your firm already relies on run well in one shared environment.
Desktop Sage stays available to the whole practice from one managed workspace, without installing and updating it on every PC.
Tax and practice packages sit alongside bookkeeping tools so partners and juniors work from the same live files.
We install the desktop systems you already use, then confirm licensing and performance needs during scoping.
Browser-based tools run alongside desktop apps inside the same secure hosted desktop session.
Real accountancy software, moved properly — outside working hours.
Poorly supported by their previous cloud provider, Hadfields moved to a managed RDS environment with FSLogix. Sage 50 Accounts, IRIS and TaxCalc were all migrated out of hours — the team never lost a working day.
Read the case study →A hosted desktop gives every member of your practice a full Windows desktop that runs in a UK datacentre instead of on the PC in front of them. Your practice software, client files and settings live in one centrally managed environment, and staff connect securely from the office, home or anywhere else.
Yes — desktop practice software like Sage 50 Accounts, IRIS and TaxCalc is exactly what hosted desktops are built for, and we've migrated practices running all three. Cloud tools like Xero or QuickBooks Online run alongside in the browser. We confirm licensing terms for each application during scoping.
Yes, when the environment is sized for the applications you run. We check CPU, memory and storage needs for packages like Sage 50, IRIS and TaxCalc during scoping, and size for January peaks rather than quiet months so performance holds when the practice is busiest.
We size the environment for your January and year-end peaks, not your quiet months — that's part of scoping, not an afterthought. If the practice grows or the workload spikes, resources can be increased without replacing anything.
Yes. The environment runs in a UK datacentre and client data stays on infrastructure we manage directly, which keeps UK GDPR conversations with your clients straightforward.
Yes — in-house finance teams use hosted desktops for the same reasons practices do: one secure environment for finance software and shared data, accessible from anywhere, without an office server to maintain.
