When you're an business owners employee you don't have time or authority to change accounting software because you're overworked & thought of as a cost centre.
When you're a business' owner you do whatever your accountant says which is usually a legacy software because a lot of tax preparers & accountants aren't actually in the trenches anymore and don't know about the granular bookkeeping part of accounting and how much better software has gotten in the last decade.
When you're an tax preparers employee you don't get to talk to the client.
When you're the tax preparer director/owner you don't use software anymore.
