Andica CT600 Corporation Tax Software vs CCH Axcess Practice

Andica CT600 Corporation Tax Software prepares CT600 Company Tax Returns and submits them electronically to HMRC. It is aimed at companies, accountants, and tax advisers. Version 2026 supports accounting periods through 31 March 2027 and includes CT600 plus CT600A, CT600L, CT600M, CT600N, and CT600P supplementary forms. Tax calculations use the accounting period and entered form data. Users can attach iXBRL accounts and computations made elsewhere or generate iXBRL data with the included template. That template has limited predefined fields, omits some FRS 102 tagging, and excludes FRS 105 micro-entity accounts. File By Internet sends returns through the Government Gateway after HMRC registration. Printed reports support records and signatures but cannot be filed with HMRC. The product has Windows desktop and browser-based cloud editions. Desktop data stays on the user's computer, according to Andica, with password protection and access rights.

CCH Axcess Practice is practice management software for accounting firms, covering time entry, billing, client payments and profitability reporting. Firms can bill hourly, at fixed fees or by progress, create and edit invoices, and use multiple billing fee agreements or batch billing. Staff can enter time on one screen, use automated clocks, or record time in the mobile app; clocks are accessible from a route sheet and tax return. Reports include productivity ratios, work-in-progress and accounts-receivable analysis, and profit by office or project. Supported payment partners let clients pay electronically through a Pay Now button in invoice emails, invoice templates or the client portal, with payments appearing automatically in Accounts Receivable. The product is part of CCH Axcess, a cloud solution Wolters Kluwer describes for work from home, travel and client visits using a laptop. CCH Axcess APIs support firm-built integrations, and Marketplace lists software integrations. The product page offers a quote request and demonstration registration. Pricing is available on request.
