TaxCalc for all firms
We recognise that practices in the UK come in all shapes and sizes.That's why we offer a wide range of Unlimited and smaller pre-built packages to suit your client base.
Whether you opt for your TaxCalc software to be supplied in standalone or server versions,
they both cost the same and come with free, unlimited support.
Standalone
Suitable for startups and those working on their own:
- Local database with option to store tax returns in your own file system or cloud storage (e.g. DropBox)*.
- Designed for a single installation. For multiple standalone machines please contact our team on 0345 5190 883.
- Available for Windows, Mac, and Linux
* Note that tax returns stored outside of the database will not be included in backups. If you move a tax return file, you will be required to help TaxCalc relocate it.
Server
Suitable for multi-staff offices at one or more locations:
- Central database to store and coordinate all your practice data in your office.
- Easy to use installer. One option for the server (which will auto-configure itself to run as a service on your network) and another option for each of the computers on your network.
- TaxCalc's server software is designed to run over modest, lightweight hardware. You don't even need a dedicated server. In simple setups, you just need to bless one computer on your network with the database and TaxCalc takes care of the rest.
- TaxCalc's software is optimised to run over VPN, so connecting in from remote locations provides superb performance.
- Concurrent user model means that you can install software on as many computers as you like.

How do I setup TaxCalc for my firm?
We offer three deployment options to suit different situations. For multi-users working in the same office, our network version allows you to install TaxCalc to a server and connect workstations to the central database. For single users, our standalone version offers a simple installation process for a single computer – all data is stored locally. The first time you install TaxCalc, you will be asked which version you would like to install.
Alternatively for those wishing to work anywhere, we have CloudConnect which allows you to download TaxCalc to any computer and access your data via the Internet. Perfect for firms who need staff to access from the office or from home/client’s premises.
How many computers can I install TaxCalc Tax Return Production onto?
TaxCalc Tax Return Production may be installed on a single computer if you have chosen to use the standalone version. For network and cloud customers, there is no limit, although the number of concurrent users will be limited by the licence you purchased.
Can I upgrade or add additional returns?
Yes. You can start off working with one version of TaxCalc Tax Return Production and later upgrade or buy a version that provides additional returns. We will provide you with a credit for any unused portion of your annual licence.
If you cannot find the product you are looking for, please call us on 0345 5190 883 or email sales@taxcalc.com.
