Cloudnine Realtime, an AbacusNext Product, Named Best Outsourced Technology Service in CPA Practice Advisor 2017 Awards

 

Top rankings in The CPA Practice Advisor’s 2017 Readers’ Choice Award positions AbacusNext as leading provider of fully managed technology solutions for finance professionals 

SAN DIEGO, CA, March 21, 2017 – Cloudnine Realtime (Cloudnine), a division of AbacusNext, has won two prestigious rankings in The CPA Practice Advisor’s 2017 Readers’ Choice Awards. The company, which was acquired by AbacusNext in early February, won first place in the Outsourced Technology Services category with 27.5% of the votes, and third place in ASP/Hosted Solutions Providers with 12% of the votes, respectively. No other Cloud provider has won a Reader’s Choice Award six years running, which puts Cloudnine Realtime in rareified territory within the industry.

The Outsourced Technology Services category recognizes specialized technology services that help accountants better serve their clients and better run their practices, while the ASP/Hosted Solutions Providers category recognizes programs for businesses that want the full version of traditionally installed programs available online, thus having the benefits of not having to maintain and update it.

“This award demonstrates why we invested in Cloudnine Realtime – they strive for excellence in innovation,” says Alessandra Lezama, AbacusNext’s CEO. “As part of the AbacusNext portfolio, we are delivering secure solutions that provide CPA’s security, simplicity, and savings in today’s rapidly expanding digital world.”

The CPA Practice Advisor’s Readers’ Choice Awards, now in it’s 14th year, allows readers to help share the spotlight on the programs they respect and trust. The award offers professionals the chance to share with their peers what they consider the systems that help CPAs and financial professionals to be more productive, responsive to client needs, and profitable. More than 6,000 readers placed their votes this year.
