15th May, Melbourne

We’re delighted to announce that Deloitte Australia has chosen accountsIQ as their platform to deliver online accountancy services to their clients after an extensive review of the available online software solutions. 

This is a very significant deal for accountsIQ, not only because of its size but because Deloitte’s international reputation mean they are a very important partner for us to have. 

We're really excited about the opportunity to help Deloitte deliver a world-class online accounting solution to their client base.

“Businesses are becoming increasingly impatient with the inflexibility and cost of traditional financial systems. accountsIQ provides customers with the ability to securely record transactions, monitor performance and prepare financial reports. It also has a clever bulletin board feature which allows our accountants and clients to post messages for one another in a secure online forum.

We see this as a fundamental change in the way accountants work and in the type of the work they can do. It changes the nature of the client-accountant relationship from a ‘once a year’ contact to an ongoing conversation; from accountant to business advisor,” confirmed Peter Williams (pictured below), CEO of Deloitte Digital.

Many thanks to Michael and the team in Australia for helping to drive this forward.

At yesterday's launch in Melbourne were Tony Connolly (CEO accountsIQ), Peter Williams (CEO Deloitte Digital Australia), Michael McKeand (MD accountsIQ, Australia) and H.E. Máirtín O'Fainín (Irish Ambassador to Australia and New Zealand).
