What the evidence shows

Pricing

6 of 26 firms here publish a price or a starting price, 1 say they quote, and 19 say nothing about fees (73%). Figures the firms publish themselves, as their sites word them: Bilingual Consulting ("$150 Per month"), Books on the Go CPA Firm ("$250/month") and ChurchShield ("Starting at $99/month"). Across Indiana, the share publishing a price is 16%, so this group is ahead of its state. Get the monthly fee, the transaction volume it assumes and what counts as extra in writing.

Services and process

4 of 26 say they take on catch-up or cleanup work, which matters if your books are months behind. On this page that's Books & Business Solutions, ClearBridge Bookkeeping, Elevation CPA and Trueblaze Accounting & Tax. Fewer write down the process: 7 of 26 describe onboarding and 6 name a reporting schedule.

Software and remote work

QuickBooks is the software named most, by 10 of 26 firms, ahead of QuickBooks Online 19% and QuickBooks Desktop 4%. Remote work is stated by 7 of 26; the filter above the list narrows to them.

Licenses and public records

Without Indiana records we can match, the evidence here is what firms publish about themselves, and that alone stops short of the 70% coverage a ranking needs. Median evidence coverage here is 69%. Check any CPA claim yourself on the Indiana Board of Accountancy lookup.
