BACKGROUND
atmosol started working with SafeSend in 2008 when they were a startup company with one simple product for tax firms and wanted to expand their product mix.
BRIEF
The initial brief was to build a secure file exchange solution based on the premise that client portals used by CPA firms are too cumbersome and something easier is needed. Through the years, atmosol built has worked with SafeSend to build an entire suite of products
GOALS
Ignite growth through the expansion of product portfolio in the tax preparation industry
Build a team that can support the growth long term as the company grows
CHALLENGES
Challenges in the product have evolved from being able to build an excellent product with a lean team to be able to support massive traffic during the last days of the tax season. The system also needed to be highly secure considering it deals with the private information of their customers’ customers
Solution
atmosol built several products for Safesend over a period of 13 years while enhancing existing products and building a team exclusively for them. Over this period, we built products for secure file transfer, electronic signature and later, the company’s now flagship product, Safesend Returns using industry-leading technologies like Microsoft .Net, React, and Azure Cloud
Outcome
SafeSend has won CPA Practive Advisor’s Innovation award three times in five years
