What the evidence shows
Pricing
None of these 12 websites shows a monthly fee. 1 of 12 says it works by quote, and 8 of 12 don't mention pricing. Ask for the fee and what it covers in writing before the first month starts.
Services and process
If you're behind, start with the 1 firm that says it does catch-up or cleanup work. On this page that's The Accounting Guys. On process, 2 of 12 give a reporting schedule and 4 explain onboarding. Nationally 24% of listed firms name a reporting schedule, so this group is below the norm.
Software and remote work
QuickBooks is the software named most, by 4 of 12 firms, ahead of QuickBooks Online 17% and Gusto 17%. Remote work is stated by 2 of 12; the filter above the list narrows to them.
Licenses and public records
Without Utah 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 66.5%. Any firm that says it's a CPA practice can be checked on the Utah Board of Accountancy lookup.
Provo-Orem area in figures
