Welcome to our 100-percent PPP-free episode! We've got lots of other news to cover though, including a new survey proves that remote work is more productive for accounting firms, which makes it all the more astounding that it took a global pandemic to make working from home the norm in this profession. Also, Sage Business Cloud suffered a multi-day outage in South Africa, Biden's financial watchdogs set new targets, Syndio raises millions for its pay equity app, and Rewind (coincidentally our sponsor for this episode) raises a Series A. We'll also cover some of the best laptops for 2021, SMS apps you should consider for your firm, and talk about a survey showing Zoom fatigue is real, why nearly a third of professionals would rather quit than go back to the office, and more stories about remote work than you can shake a martini at!
