While other Accounting Excellence categories received a Covid-fuelled shake-up, the top tax software products used by UK accountants were one of the few pockets of stability in an otherwise chaotic year. As longtime Accounting Excellence watchers will have noted, all of this year’s finalists were also shortlisted in 2019 but while the shortlist was the same, the winner wasn't - step forward TaxCalc to take the prize.
Commentary: “To prove there’s no room for complacency in the tax and practice software software market, TaxCalc rebounded to pip last year’s joint winners BTCSoftware and GoSimpleTax for the 2020 Professional Tax Software of the Year Award. The user ratings remain very close in this category, so winning depends on staying abreast of all the compliance changes while also sustaining high levels of customer service and product development. Such intense competition can only benefit customers.”
This year’s finalists:
BTCSoftware
GoSimpleTax
TaxCalc
