“We have Canopy for our three-office accounting firm. The implementation team has been helpful, getting us set up with thousands of users. Thomson Reuters was too clunky to use. Canopy is easier to use and has more functionality."

“Having a secure online portal made the need to meet face to face not necessary. Our firm is trying to determine if being 100% virtual is possible. Without Canopy, we couldn't even have that conversation.”
