What the evidence shows
Pricing
78% of the firms on this page say nothing about what they charge. 8 of 82 show a monthly price or a starting price, and 7 say they quote. Figures the firms publish themselves, as their sites word them: Team 80 ("starting at $1,000/month"), RedGate Accounting & Bookkeeping ("Starting at $400") and ReliAscent LLC ("$2,000/mo"). Get the monthly fee, the transaction volume it assumes and what counts as extra in writing.
Services and process
8 of 82 say they take on catch-up or cleanup work, which matters if your books are months behind. Fewer write down the process: 16 of 82 describe onboarding and 29 name a reporting schedule. Nationally 24% of listed firms name a reporting schedule, so this group is above the norm.
Software and remote work
QuickBooks is the software named most, by 28 of 82 firms, ahead of QuickBooks Online 22% and Gusto 16%. Remote work is stated by 28 of 82; the filter above the list narrows to them.
Licenses and public records
Colorado publishes records we can match, so we could check this group against them: 5 firms with an active CPA license or permit on Colorado's published register and 45 with a business registration found in the state's registry data. The CPA records we matched belong to Matthew P. Schlanger CPA, Lay & Company, LLC, Lutz Hoenig CPAs LLC and Amy E. Kozleski, CPA. Each profile shows the license or permit number and the date we checked. Any firm that says it's a CPA practice can be checked on the Colorado State Board of Accountancy lookup.
The ranking
The numbered firms score between 23 and 78; the median across every scored firm is 37. 12 more firms reached 70% coverage with fewer than 6 documented items, so they sit under the list as Also scored, without a number. The top of the list: Matthew P. Schlanger CPA (78 at 94% coverage), Centennial Accounting Group (77 at 77% coverage) and Team 80 (73 at 84% coverage). Parker has the most numbered firms (9), and the list spans 16 towns in all. A high-coverage firm with a modest score isn't a weak firm. Its site simply leaves more for you to ask.
