The world has changed so much in just a few weeks. We’re seeing a lot of change in the lives and work of our accounting customers and their clients. The rapid shift to remote working. New legislation and financial actions by world governments. Clients under extreme pressure and in need of emergency advice, particularly SMEs.
So we wanted to do something practical to help. To help our customers, their clients and the wider accounting community. After all - we’re all in this together.
Here you’ll find information and advice on how Silverfin can help you respond to the challenges represented by COVID-19. We’ll keep you up to date with developments on our platform, training resources and information from other sources.
So bookmark this page and join the community to share your advice, ideas and questions with us and your peers.

We’ve released two Silverfin templates to identify, and then track, clients under pressure from COVID-19 and to make critical cash flow planning faster and easier. These are free to all customers and available for download now on our Marketplace.
With these templates you can:
Accountants can use the templates to identify clients that need their help across the whole firm, by industry and organisation size and then create a plan with them individually. Contact us to find out more information.
We’ve released a major update to our communication and collaboration capabilities and made it available now to all clients for free. Silverfin Inbox makes working with clients and team members easy and will be particularly helpful at this time when everyone is working remotely.
Accountants see all their personal communication across their client portfolio consolidated into one inbox. They can communicate with any client from here and don’t have to switch into an individual client file and inbox unless they want to. They also get an alert when new messages arrive that need their attention even if they are working in a different client file.
For clients, they get a simple way to communicate and share information with their accountant from within Silverfin using an inbox approach they are familiar with.
All correspondence is then linked to, and saved, within the context of the client file.
Contact us to find out more information and about the additional collaboration benefits you can achieve when you combine Inbox with Silverfin Interact.
Join our new community - The Connected Accountants. This is a place for accountants and our partners to share ideas for new ways we can help and ask us (and each other) questions.
It’s designed to bring the wider accounting community together and for us all to benefit from each other’s experience and ideas. We welcome anyone in accounting to join the community so we can all help each other as best we can.
We’ve made Silverfin Insights available free for 90 days from 1 April 2020 for customers that don’t have it. Insights gives you the tools needed to interrogate data at a client and portfolio level, and analytics and reporting to turn that data into powerful advice. Our new COVID-19 templates utilise Insights to give the forecasting and reporting capabilities necessary to support clients at this time so we wanted to ensure every customer could take advantage of them.
We’ve pulled together some useful Silverfin resources we think will help you and your team use our platform more successfully at this time. We’ll add to these all the time so make sure you come back regularly to find out what we’ve added.
