SaaS Profiles of Use
Our flexible pricing model lets you choose from four pre-set, per-user SaaS Profiles (see below)—each reflecting common roles and needs in accounting firms.
Each SaaS profile includes the CS Professional Suite products indicated with a
check mark, Microsoft Office (including Microsoft Exchange), and NetStaff CS functionality.
And it's easy to scale your number of Profiles by adding staff as your firm grows, removing seasonal staff, or modifying staff as responsibility and firm needs change.
