"It is what it advertised to be”
It is what it advertised to be. Professional quality training and CPE tracking and certificates; systems knows AZ CPA CPE requirements and categories. I've needed help on several occasions and the assistance was quick and effective; however, there were some problems with data entry. The assistance sometimes asks for input, but when I try to type it is dissallowed for some reason. On several occasions I had to close the popup to get it out of my way.

An outsourcing decision is a strategic choice made by a company to engage external organizations or professionals to manage specific business tasks or services rather than handling them internally. This decision is driven by various factors such as the desire to reduce costs, access specialized expertise, focus on core business functions, and improve operational efficiency.
Outsourcing involves a comprehensive evaluation of potential benefits and risks, considering its impact on current operations, and selecting the right outsourcing partner. It significantly influences a company's operational dynamics and competitiveness.
Outsourcing decisions play a crucial role in helping businesses achieve significant cost savings, access specialized skills and technology, improve efficiency, and focus on core business functions. Making the right outsourcing decision can provide a competitive advantage by enabling companies to adapt quickly to market changes and scale operations effectively.
However, it requires careful assessment of potential risks and benefits, understanding its impact on company culture and employee morale, and ensuring alignment with the company's overall strategic goals.
