Canopy, which makes practice management and tax resolution software, has received $11 million in funding. The company said proceeds will be used to build its cloud-based practice suite.“Our suite can now compete toe-to-toe with the legacy on-premise software suites for mid-size and large accounting firms, and this is showing up in our post-tax season marketing and sales metrics,” CEO Davis Bell said in a prepared statement.
It is the third round of funding for Canopy. The company received $20 million early in 2017 but then had two rounds of deep layoffs with its founding and CEO Kurt Avarell leaving. Bell joined as CEO early in 2019, concurrent with the receit of $13 million in funding.
The latest round includes new investor Ankona Capital, along with existing investors NewView Capital, Pelion Venture Partners and Tenaya Capital.
