Tabs 3 Cloud Based
Tabs 3 is an integrated legal billing, financial, and practice management suite that helps law firms manage the account billing process, company financials, and other aspects of case management. It has many features including a general ledger, accounts payables, trust accounting, time tracking, client and matter management, LEDES (Legal Electronic Data Entry) statement creation, and more. Its streamlined approach to case management provides a variety of benefits to firms, from increased productivity to enhanced security and performance.
Some law firms seeking the reliability, security, and mobility that comes with cloud computing assume they must abandon their premise-based software applications in favor of web-based software. While web-based applications can offer convenience and accessibility, they can sometimes be limited in depth of functionality and scope of features.
Fortunately, Tabs 3 is a robust and fully-developed software application that offers superior features to the vast majority of web-based solutions available today. This means that law firms can enjoy the benefits of cloud computing while keeping the tabs3 cloud they are familiar with and know how to use.
When it comes to moving Tabs 3 to the cloud, your choice of hosting provider is essential. The right partner will help ensure that your transition to the cloud is seamless and that all aspects of your software and hardware are migrated to the new environment. A dedicated project manager is often the best way to achieve this. At Uptime Legal, we refer to this person as the “Onboarding Manager.”

A private cloud solution, also referred to as a virtual desktop or DaaS solution, allows you to access your Tabs 3 application from a virtual desktop that lives on a server in the data center of your choice of service provider. Unlike a traditional desktop or laptop, where the core applications are installed on your local computer, in a DaaS environment only the icon to log into the virtual desktop is displayed on your local computer. The server where your virtual desktop resides carries all of the applications and data that you need to run and operate Tabs 3.
Tabs 3’s robust billing processes allow users to create PDF statements to email or print for clients, incorporating last payment dates, outstanding balances, statement notes, and more. You can even password-protect statements for high-profile cases. It’s also easy to track and report on unbilled time or expenses using a variety of reports in the software.
In addition to providing a secure and scalable environment, a Private Cloud or DaaS solution can save your firm significant costs compared to running Tabs 3 in-house on in-house servers. The costs of in-house servers, ancillary IT infrastructure, and hiring a capable IT consultant to proactively maintain and support your software can quickly add up.
