Thomson, CCH Going Mobile

There’s an app for that.

Both CCH and Thomson Reuters headlined their user conferences with new mobile apps.

First, Thomson Reuters released Mobile CS, “a first-of-its-kind iPhone app for tax and accounting professionals.”  As a practice management tool, it extends Practice CS from desktop to iPhone. Practice CS has 60,000 users.

Then, CCH launched CCH Mobile, a mobile app providing smartphone access to IntelliConnect tax research.

To Jim Boomer of Boomer Consulting, the trend is clear:

These two announcements signal to me that the capabilities of mobile devices like the iPad and smartphones will continue to expand in regards to business applications. I don’t think it’s a surprise that both companies are headed in this direction. What is eye-opening is the speed with which they’ve responded to the market’s rapid adoption of new mobile devices. Hold on for the ride, I think the next several months will be quite interesting!
