Grant Thornton LLP and Intuit QuickBooks Canada join forces to bring cloud accounting solution to Canadian small businesses

Toronto, October 5, 2021— Grant Thornton LLP , a leading Canadian accounting and advisory firm providing audit, tax and advisory services to private and public organizations, and Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU), the leading global technology platform powering QuickBooks, Canada’s leading financial management software, today announced a strategic alliance.

Under this alliance, Grant Thornton has selected QuickBooks’ all-in-one accounting software as a cloud accounting technology of choice, leveraging the power of QuickBooks’ suite of financial tools to create a collaborative and seamless experience between the small business client and advisor.

“QuickBooks is a platform that allows our people to collaborate seamlessly with their clients. This digital platform provides our clients with a greater understanding of their business metrics and empowers our people to provide more impactful operational and strategic advice. We believe that businesses embracing digital solutions will be in a better position to thrive, particularly when combined with strategic insights from a business advisor,” says Jim Copeland, COO of Grant Thornton.

The new cloud accounting service from Grant Thornton was designed with the small-medium sized business in mind, encouraging customization, scalability, collaboration and automation to meet the unique needs of each client as they grow and evolve. Using QuickBooks’ connected suite of business tools will enable automation, and simplify operations, making it easy to bring financials into focus.

“It’s important for us at QuickBooks to partner with industry leaders like Grant Thornton to support the evolving needs of small businesses.
