Senta and TaxDome are both powerful practice management apps for tax and accounting firms. However, there are some key differences between the two tools.
Firstly, TaxDome is independently owned, and Senta has been acquired by Iris in 2021. When larger firms acquire companies, the founder’s vision goes away and development slows. TaxDome is focused on innovation as a company ethos and continues to innovate at a fast pace, expanding functionality and improving user experience for firms and their clients.
On the feature front, TaxDome offers advanced e-signatures with the ability to do KBA, QES (Qualified Electronic Signatures) and AdES (Advanced Electronic Signatures), while Senta does not. This can be a significant feature for firms that need to collect a lot of signed documents from their clients. Another difference is that TaxDome offers an integration with the IRS, which allows firms to pull client transcripts.
Senta is built for professional services firms. It provides tools to manage appointments, collect client information and automate follow-up. Most of all, Senta is dedicated solely to scheduling and intake functionality.
TaxDome is an end-to-end practice management platform designed for tax, accounting and bookkeeping professionals. In addition to scheduling and workflows, TaxDome provides a comprehensive platform to power mid-size and large tax and accounting firms for firm management, client management, revenue operations and client experience.
Senta is like a flashlight, providing illumination on client communication and basic tasks. TaxDome, however, acts as a powerful spotlight, casting light on every aspect of your tax and accounting practice. With its comprehensive suite of tools it ensures that your entire practice is well-lit, leaving no corner in the dark.
