Client Hub offers month-to-month billing, with no minimum number of users and no multi-year term.
We want you to be sure we are right for you before you commit to a large financial outlay.
TaxDome integrates with QuickBooks Online, and that integration is built around billing: invoices and payments you create in TaxDome sync out to QBO so you are not entering them twice.
That is useful. It is not bookkeeping.
Client Hub connects to QuickBooks Online and Xero to work the books themselves — identify uncategorized transactions, send the question to the client, capture the answer against the transaction, manage month-end close, and review the financials.
TaxDome does not list a Xero integration.
Takeaway: One system for the client, the work, and the books.
Most firms that do the books also file returns. You do not need a second system for them.
Client Hub handles the tax engagement end to end: tax questionnaires with built-in document request lists so the client answers and uploads in one pass, KBA eSignatures for the returns that require identity verification, and the same workflows, deadlines, and client messaging your bookkeeping work already runs on.
TaxDome markets integrations with Drake, Lacerte, UltraTax, ProSeries, CCH Axcess and others. Read their own documentation and those integrations are just one mechanism: a virtual printer that gets the printed return into TaxDome. No client data, return data, or e-file status moves via API between the systems.
Client Hub does the same job with the Client Hub Uploader app — Save As into the uploader and the file lands in the right client workspace, on Mac as well as Windows.
Takeaway: Your bookkeeping clients and your tax clients live in one system.
Client collaboration only works when clients actually use it.
Client Hub gives clients a clean portal and mobile app for messages, tasks, files, eSignatures, and accounting questions.
The experience is designed to feel familiar from the first interaction, so your team spends less time explaining where to click.
“We tried TaxDome for a year, but it never quite clicked. Client Hub made our process so much easier — especially at month-end.” — Douglas T.
Takeaway: Simple for your team. Easy for your clients.
TaxDome publishes AI for document handling and AI-powered reporting.
Client Hub's AI goes at the accounting work itself. It can review a client's Balance Sheet and Income Statement directly from QuickBooks Online or Xero, analyze the figures, and highlight areas that may warrant further review — inside the same system where you manage the client, the work, and the follow-up.
Takeaway: AI that helps your team review the accounting work.
TaxDome publishes, per seat, on a 1-year term:
Two- and three-year terms lower the annual rate. All plans are billed upfront.
Client Hub offers:
All Client Hub plans include unlimited clients, unlimited storage, AI features, support, and training.
Takeaway: Pay monthly while you grow into it, or pay annually and save — without signing up for years.
Two firms can pay similar annual totals and still be in very different positions on day one.
This compares Client Hub's Practice Manager Plus with TaxDome Business on a 1-year term.
Client Hub annual figures use Practice Manager Plus at $79/user/month annual plan; initial month figures use $99/user/month. TaxDome figures use Business at $1,200/seat on a 1-year term, billed upfront. TaxDome's two- and three-year terms carry lower annual rates. Confirm current pricing on each site.
Takeaway: Client Hub costs less per year and asks for far less before you have proven it works.
Identify uncategorized transactions from QuickBooks or Xero, send questions to the client, let the client answer from the web or their phone, and keep each response tied to the transaction and the workflow.
Track the accounting work for each client alongside the tasks, owners, deadlines, and client dependencies needed to finish it — with visibility into what is done, what is missing, and what needs attention next.
Once the books are ready, Client Hub analyzes Balance Sheets and Income Statements from QuickBooks Online or Xero and highlights areas worth a closer look. The accountant stays in control; the review gets faster.
Open a client's Word or Excel file in Client Hub, edit it, and save — no download, no re-upload, no second copy circulating by email. The version in the client's file area is always the current one.
TaxDome previews Office files in its viewer; editing their contents means the Windows desktop app or virtual drive, or taking the file out and putting it back.
Takeaway: Both are capable platforms serving different centers of gravity.
The better fit depends on whether your firm's core work is tax returns or the books — and on how much commitment you want to make before you know.
Changing practice management systems is already a big enough decision.
Client Hub onboarding is included at no additional cost. We help you get set up and get your team using Client Hub without charging separately for onboarding or training.

TaxDome's QBO integration syncs invoices and payments created in TaxDome into QuickBooks Online, so billing is not entered twice. Client Hub's integration works the books — uncategorized transactions, month-end close, and AI review of financial statements.
TaxDome lists Essentials at $800/year for solo users, Pro at $1,000/year, and Business at $1,200/year on 1-year terms, with lower rates on longer terms. Client Hub is $59/user/month for Practice Manager and $79/user/month for Practice Manager Plus on annual billing, or $79 and $99 monthly. Pricing changes, so confirm on each site.
