The product was launched during an appreciati­on dinner for some of ALgoBiZZ’s clients at the hotel.

According to ALgoBiZZ Berhad CEO Serene See Aik Lian: “This solution was created to cater to the increasing demand of tax profession­als who require instant access to client data anywhere, anytime. We are proud to be the first in Malaysia and the first in Southeast Asia to create this product. Moving forward, iBiZZtax will be integrated with other modules such as Secretaria­l, Accounting and Audit on a single platform.”

iBiZZtax Cloud Version is suitable for various types of small and medium-sized businesses, serving all tax needs. Multiple users can upload tax data remotely through cloud and access the same data from other devices, translatin­g to time savings for users. The software is constantly and continuall­y updated with the latest Malaysian tax law compliance ahead of time before the tax filing period each year.

Among the other key advantages of iBiZZtax Cloud Version are high-level security protection by Dataflex, DigiCert and Microsoft Azure as well as automated backup of users’ data on secure servers with prior year returns stored, accessible to users at any time.

Touted to have a low entry cost and pay-per-use strategy, the software is capable of delivering Tax Return Review Form, Tax Computatio­n, supporting schedules and Statutory Forms (Helaian Kerja and Lampiran) as well as configurat­ion of offline and online push2e-filing modules to the Malaysian IRB e-filing portal.

ALgoBiZZ Berhad states that future updates to the software include the incorporat­ion of the conversion tool, namely Malaysian Income Tax Reporting System (MITRS). “This feature will provide an even more seamless experience and service for our clients,” said See.

The offline version of iBiZZtax was launched 12 years ago and was officially endorsed by the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia in 2016 on their capability of performing e-Bas e-filing.
