BrightManager

Practice Management

UK-built practice management trusted by over 6,000 accounting firms.

Overview

BrightManager is a UK-built practice management tool used by over 6,000 accounting firms. It focuses on the core essentials: task management, deadline tracking, client records, and team workload visibility.

The platform is deliberately simpler than Karbon or TaxDome, which is actually its strength for many firms. If you want practice management without the complexity of a full-featured platform, BrightManager delivers what you need at a sensible price.

The HMRC integration for deadline tracking is useful, and the client record management is solid. It is not trying to be everything to everyone, and that focus means the core features work well.
