Helping you succeed in being on top of your profession and customer service that builds business.
As an accountant, you understand the critical importance of technology in today’s business environment. You need reliable, efficient, and secure IT systems to manage financial data and perform complex calculations. But managing your IT infrastructure can be time-consuming and challenging, taking away valuable resources from your core business activities.
That’s where IT Networks comes in. We are a Melbourne-based managed service provider, specialising in providing IT solutions to small and medium-sized businesses, including accounting firms. Our tailored services help accountants to overcome their IT pain points, streamline their IT infrastructure, and enhance their productivity and efficiency.
Accounting firms often face several IT pain points that can hinder their operations and productivity. Some of the most common issues we assist accounting firms with include:
Cybersecurity: Accounting firms often deal with sensitive financial information and personal data of their clients, making them an attractive target for cybercriminals. This means that accounting firms need to ensure their IT infrastructure is secure from cyber threats.
Compliance: Accounting firms are required to comply with various regulations and standards, such as the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) guidelines, which can be complex and time-consuming. IT solutions can assist with compliance by ensuring that data is stored securely and is easily accessible when required.
Data management: Accounting firms handle large volumes of data, and managing this data efficiently can be a significant IT pain point. The data needs to be organised, analysed, and stored in a way that is easily accessible and secure.
Remote access: With many accounting firms moving towards remote work, remote access to IT systems has become a significant concern. The systems need to be accessible from different locations, while ensuring that the data remains secure.
Integration: Accounting firms often use multiple software applications for different tasks, which can result in siloed data and duplication of efforts. Integrating various software applications can streamline processes, reduce manual labor, and enhance efficiency.
Scalability: As accounting firms grow, their IT requirements may change, making scalability a significant IT pain point. The IT infrastructure needs to be flexible and adaptable to changing business needs.
IT Networks can assist accounting firms in addressing these IT pain points by offering tailored IT solutions that align with their specific business needs. IT Networks’ services can assist with cybersecurity, compliance, data management, remote access, integration, and scalability, enabling accounting firms to focus on their core business activities.
IT networks can provide significant benefits to accounting businesses in Melbourne, including:
Enhanced Efficiency: With a well-designed IT network, your accounting business can operate more efficiently. IT networks can automate tasks such as data entry, file sharing, and communication, freeing up time for your employees to focus on more valuable tasks.
Improved Security: As an Australian Cubersecurity Centre Networtk Partner, IT networks provide robust security measures to protect your data, including firewalls, antivirus software, and data encryption. We develop solutions around the Essential Eight Maturity Model.
Access to Cloud Computing: Cloud computing is becoming increasingly popular in the accounting industry. It allows your employees to access data and software from anywhere, making it easier to collaborate with clients and work remotely.
Better Communication: Communication is key to success in any business. An IT network can provide your accounting firm with tools such as video conferencing, instant messaging, and email to ensure seamless communication both internally and with clients.
Improved Data Management: Accounting firms deal with a lot of data. An IT network can help manage that data by providing tools for data storage, backup, and recovery. This ensures that your data is always available and can be recovered quickly in case of a disaster.
Cost Savings: Investing in an IT network can save your accounting business money in the long run. IT networks can automate tasks, reduce the risk of errors, and eliminate the need for paper-based systems. This can result in significant cost savings over time.
Increased Competitiveness: Well-designed IT infrastructure can give your accounting business a competitive advantage. It can provide your employees with the tools they need to work more efficiently, improve customer service, and offer new services to clients.
Overall, IT networks can provide numerous benefits to accounting firms. From improved efficiency and communication to better security and data management, investing in an IT network can help your accounting business grow and succeed.

Ask yourself: What is your core business? Is your time and expertise best spent fiddling with technology? The answer is NO.
We manage the systems which run these and other applications, keeping the systems and applications patched and secure. Having remote or “multi office access” for secure remote access of the applications and client data allows the accountant to make maximum use of their time and is therefore very important for an accounting practice. Our Multi Factor Authentication (2FA) allows for secured access from anywhere, any time.
We set up, install, maintain and take responsibility for every aspect of these technologies to support the efficient running of your business and its reputation.
