Netgain provides CPA firms with a single technology foundation that connects people, applications and data. Combining cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, accounting application expertise and strategic guidance, Netgain enables firms to strengthen compliance and scale for growth.
Built specifically for the accounting profession, Netgain’s managed services model is designed around the realities of CPA firms, including busy season performance, remote work, growth and M&A activity. The platform brings together cloud, IT, cybersecurity and professional services to maintain access to critical applications and protect client data.
– Cloud and Azure services support public and private Azure environments, Azure Virtual Desktop, application hosting, patching, tuning, troubleshooting, cost visibility and performance optimization, so firms can run core accounting systems without deep in-house Azure specialization.
– CPA Cloud Essentials packages secure, scalable IT for small to mid-sized CPA firms with Azure Virtual Desktops, 24/7 global help desk support, accounting application support, endpoint protection, firewall management, network security, Nexus360 XDR threat detection and flexible scaling for seasonal staff, offshore teams and growth.
– Managed IT services give firms a fully managed or co-managed model for monitoring, patching, vendor coordination, change management and user support, allowing internal teams to stay focused on strategic firm priorities rather than daily infrastructure issues.
– Cybersecurity services provide layered protection across users, endpoints, networks and cloud systems, with 24/7 visibility, threat validation, response guidance, documentation and controls aligned with accounting-firm expectations such as IRS Publication 4557, FTC Safeguards and SOC 2.
– Professional services extend the platform with compliance assessments, written information security programs, virtual CIO guidance, technology planning, AI enablement and project-based support for firms that need specialized expertise during modernization, acquisitions or security initiatives.
Netgain is best suited for CPA firms that view technology as an operational foundation for client service, growth and risk management, not simply a help desk function. The platform is particularly valuable for firms that require reliable tax and audit application performance, secure remote access, predictable monthly IT costs, scalable capacity for busy season and growth, and the security, compliance and documentation needed to support audit readiness and client confidence.
