Practice Management Software for Solo CPAs
A solo CPA needs the system to do the jobs a firm would hire an admin for: remembering deadlines, chasing documents and keeping the client record complete. Remindoo automates the recurring work and the chasing, and the per-client price does not change when you eventually hire.

The solo problem is not workload, it is interruption
A solo practitioner is the preparer, the reviewer, the admin, the collections department and the business owner, often within the same hour. The work itself is manageable. What is not manageable is being the only person who knows what has been asked of which client and when.
Every chase you send is a context switch away from billable work, and every chase you forget to send is a return that slips to the following week. That is the whole economics of a solo practice: the difference between a good year and a bad one is usually how much of the administrative layer you managed to automate.
The second issue is the single point of failure. When everything lives in your head and your inbox, a bad week of illness is a genuine business risk, and a future hire has nothing to inherit.
What changes for a sole practitioner
Deadlines exist outside your head
Every recurring obligation generates on schedule, whether you thought about it or not.
Chasing runs itself
Requests keep reminding clients through the weeks you have no time to follow up.
Client history is written down
When you take on help, or sell, the practice has a record rather than a founder.
You can see your own capacity
A solo practice can still be overcommitted. Seeing it in November is better than discovering it in March.
Pricing for a practice of one, and the practice you may become
Per-user pricing looks attractive to a solo: one seat, one bill. The problem arrives the first time you bring in seasonal help or a part-time bookkeeper, because the model that was cheapest at one user is rarely cheapest at four.
Remindoo prices per client, so the bill reflects your book rather than your staffing. A solo with 120 clients pays $108 a month on Core or $120 on Growth, and that number does not change the January you hire a contract preparer.
If you never hire, per-client pricing still fits the way a solo thinks about cost, which is per client, per month, against the fee that client pays.

Frequently asked questions
Is practice management software worth it for one person?
It depends on client count. Below roughly fifty clients many solos manage with a calendar and discipline. Above that, the chasing and deadline load usually justifies a system long before an admin hire does.
How much time does setup take?
Importing clients is quick. Templating one service properly takes an afternoon, and that afternoon is the part that matters.
Does it help if I use a tax software I like?
Yes. Remindoo does not prepare or file returns. It tracks the work, the documents and the deadlines around whatever you already use.
What happens when I hire?
Nothing changes in your bill. Users are unlimited, so the new person gets full access immediately.
Can clients use it easily?
The portal is browser-based and shows the client exactly what you have asked for. Test it with your least technical client during the trial.
