People used to go around the office and ask who was on the router. It was such a drain. The axiom that says time is money is still true. That's what makes the high speed of broadband so appealing to accounting firms. You're sacrificing time.
Speed saves time.
The faster the connection, the easier employees can communicate with each other and with clients, the quicker essential research can be conducted and work can be completed. But all this speed comes with a hefty price tag, not only for setting up the technology, but also for the staff to maintain it. Yet, it's a price that most accounting firms are willing to pay. We had to put an infrastructure in place to support that. To really do this, we had to make a significant investment.
