Learn Why Directors Love CountGPS

James Solomons Partner Elite Financial Solutions NSW


"When CountGPS was first released we had just been through the process of updating all of our standards documents, checklists & letters and didn’t feel as though there would be any real value by jumping on board.  In January of this year we decided to look into CountGPS again because the constant battle to keep our documents, checklists and letters up to date was proving to be too hard and we also felt as though we needed a new and fresh approach to both our internal procedures as well as for the content and look & feel of our letters and reports going out to clients.

Also what interested us were the extra “tools” that CountGPS had available particularly the Business Structure Wizard. For years we had literally given away our initial advice meeting for free and set up structures for clients without providing them with a report like what came out of CountGPS nor billing them properly for our time.  

So we went through the demo webinars with Harvee and as a team made the decision to subscribe and as is usually the case we now wonder why we didn’t jump on board earlier.

With a slight change in our approach to dealing with our clients and utilising some of the extra functionality and reports that can come out of CountGPS we have now almost recouped our investment for year one within 2 months.

The team are enjoying being able to step through the more advanced processes like Business Valuations and Interim Tax Planning that were usually done at the Partner level.

And we know that over time the benefits to come out of CountGPS will continue to increase as our team gets use to its operation and capabilities. And with CountGPS 2.0 soon to be released along with the integration with Acclipse Practice Manager, Acclipse Tax, Voyager and our Acclipse Website, within 12 months we will have a total firm wide practice management solution which is totally “in the cloud” which is the only way to go !!"

"I don’t jump in and spend money without doing a real due diligence, but I was just looking for something because I haven’t been happy with how our checklist system had been going. Also I’ve been trying to find something that is not trying to replace giving advice, but that will assist the lower level people. And I just thought that for the price, it was going to do the job for me.  I have already sent the CountGPS FBT checklists out and I’m ready to start using your 2011 Tax Planning documents and the Lifeplan report. You can ask any of my staff I hate spending money, but I saw the benefits of it (CountGPS) and the merits of it quite quickly so yeah, it was a no brainer for me in the end."

"We have implemented CountGPS as a standard tool for use by all staff in the office to drive efficiency and financial results. CountGPS provides many standard solutions to enhance the quality and value of the client deliverable. In particular the access to the corporate structuring templates has enabled staff at all levels to develop their expertise in this area while generating valuable solutions for clients. CountGPS paid for itself in the first month of implementation. We now find CountGPS to be one of our most valuable tools in generating additional revenue streams with high level recoveries."

"I thought I would send you this email thanking you for all your assistance regarding CountGPS to date. As the appointed CountGPS Coordinator; the time you have spent with me and some of our team members at Evan Bulmer & Associates has been paramount to the beginning of our implementation. I have had discussions with Evan Bulmer the Principal, commenting on the service provided by yourself on behalf of CountGPS, which reassures the confidence of our investment. We appreciate your time as there can never be too much training regarding this type of investment and encourage CountGPS to remember us with any future ideas, updates and training that may assist with the partnership between Evan Bulmer & Associates and CountGPS."

"We have been using CountGPS for around three years. It has improved our efficiency and has allowed us to standardise all our documents. All the services provided have been useful and we look forward to receiving further updates."

 "The CountGPS system has so far been useful especially with the wizards – it makes life a lot easier and more efficient. We have had our own intranet system for a few years now where we have all of our own procedures and letters etc, so we mainly wanted the GPS system for the higher level work like what the wizards provide. It also saved me a lot of time using the tax planning documents as we did not have any in our system. I can see BCG getting a lot of benefit from GPS in the coming years even more so when the CGT wizard becomes available."

Sarah Power- CPA
Business Concepts Group Pty Ltd, VIC

 "Using CountGPS has really improved our productivity without having to reinvent documentation, checklists and work papers."

Wayne Clarke- Managing Director

Steve Thiele- Partner

 "Our team at Kidmans Partners has benefited greatly from CountGPS. It has changed the way we do business at Kidmans Partners - CountGPS has helped our team to focus on value adding services and also increase our average hourly charge out rate. CountGPS has assisted our multi-partnered firm to achieve harmonisation of client communication procedures and standardisation of working papers. The ongoing webinar sessions are invaluable. It has significantly assisted us in the process of identifying and delivering new initiatives and offering beyond the numbers service offerings to our clients."

Pravneel Karan- Senior Accountant

"CountGPS has changed the way we do business at Kidmans Partners- it has helped us to focus on value added services and on increasing our average hourly rate - a continuing effort in every practice that is impossible without a tool like CountGPS. The ongoing monthly training and new service offerings of CountGPS is helping us to be more proactive now in meeting our clients' needs, which we can now confidently discuss and engage in with our clients. We have also used CountGPS to improve / re-engineer some processes within Kidmans Partners as we always are looking at better ways / more profitable ways of delivering new initiatives to our clients."
