Joshua G
owner
4.0

Joshua G.: I'm Joshua. I'm the owner of an accounting firm and I give Canopy four out of five stars. Before there was Canopy, it was a hodgepodge of trying to use different systems and software. There wasn't anything that really stood out. I chose Canopy because they allow me to keep every client's information confidential and secure. It's, well, as I understood it, better than bank level security when it comes to keeping private information private. Getting onto Canopy was a piece of cake, I guess you could say. Logging in, seeing everything laid out, I guess you could say ergonomically, it was just very easy to use. If you're considering Canopy to use in your business, I don't know. I'd just say they're a great product to work with. Customer support is excellent and I just really love it and hope you will too.

5.0

Speaker 1: Hi, my name is Odette and I'm the owner and photographer at Odette for Art, and I give tax1099.com five out of five. Well, for me, sometimes as a photographer, sometimes I have contractors, especially I work with the stylists, and I needed to provide them with Tax 1099 form for the IRS, and I found Tax1099, and it was really easy for me. What I like the most about this program is that it's so easy even for me, that I don't have a lot of knowledge about tax form and the IRS, and it was really easy, really comprehensive for me to fill out all the information and give all the details and deliver the forms in time. I don't think I would change anything, but, well, this is my second year using the program, and maybe with more years I would have more information and things that I would change. But right now, as it was so easy for me to set up and deliver the information, I would say I like it as it is.
