Project Management Software for Accountants
Mango's project management software is designed around how accounting firms actually operate — recurring work, firm-wide visibility, and strict deadlines.
Project and task management software that never lets you miss a deadline
Due dates are maintained perpetually. Complete a task and the next due date is automatically created. Duplicate projects and tasks in batch mode from the Template Library. Customize your workflows with our project management tools.
Robust Features to Get Your Due Dates Under Control
Comprehensive Project Dashboard
Get real-time project visibility from the Dashboard and drill into the Project List and the Project for the details. Track project progress at a glance with dashboards that show status, bottlenecks, and overdue tasks across clients and engagements.
Standardized Projects & Tasks
Create project templates for tax returns, monthly bookkeeping, payroll, advisory engagements, and more. Templates ensure every engagement follows the same proven process, reducing errors and improving consistency across staff.
Recurring Project Automation
Automatically generate recurring projects and tasks for ongoing client work. Tag projects to segment for filtering, add notes to projects and filter your projects to narrow the project list and better manage what accounting projects need your attention most.
Clear Task Ownership & Due Dates
Assign tasks to specific team members with clear deadlines and dependencies. Send notifications via email when Projects or Tasks are assigned, or when a certain part of the project is ready for review.
Integrated Client Communication
Keep project-related conversations connected to the work itself. Emails, requests, and updates stay linked to the engagement, so nothing gets buried in inboxes.
Scale Your Firm with Task and Due Date Tracking Software
Mango’s simple, intuitive tax due date calendar helps you stay ahead of important tax deadlines and avoid late fees. You can use our accountant due date monitoring software to keep track of multiyear deadlines, payments, extensions, filings, projects, and more.
Transparency with clients and auditors
Maintain the entire history of a client’s work in real-time for future reference in one place. Search projects by name for client status.
Reduce the client chase
Assign filings and other tasks to clients and users. Send automatic email reminders.
