Of course, Canopy recognizes that not all firms are on the same practice management journey or timeline, so we let you build your practice management platform as you need it. Starting with Client Management as your foundation, you can then pick and choose whichever modules your firm needs.

Client Management gives you one place for client communications, records, and interactions—including a global inbox, custom client portal, and bulk actions.
Document Management allows firms to stop wasting time (and patience) wrangling document sprawl. You can use Canopy for document storage, file organization, working on documents (no more need to leave Canopy for something like Adobe Acrobat), document sharing, eSignature and more.
Time & Billing enables firms to invoice and accept payments all in one place. With the industry’s most robust QBO integration, that means no system-switching and no double entry necessary. (Can we get a hallelujah?)
Workflow helps you manage your projects, processes, and productivity so your firm can do more. Manage productivity, projects, and tasks with custom views & filters. And don’t forget to leverage Canopy’s new and improved workflow automation features to help reduce the mental load that goes into setting up and managing your work.
