Introduction
TallyPrime is the latest and most powerful version of Tally’s accounting software. And with TallyPrime Cloud Access, you can now use this powerful software from literally anywhere in the world — without being tied to a single office computer.
In this guide, we explain everything about TallyPrime Cloud Access — what it is, how it differs from standard Tally on Cloud, how to set it up, and what it costs.
What is TallyPrime Cloud Access?
TallyPrime Cloud Access refers to accessing TallyPrime — the latest version of Tally ERP — through a cloud-hosted environment. Instead of installing TallyPrime on a local PC, your TallyPrime software and company data reside on a secure cloud server.
Note: TallyPrime also has an official ‘TallyPrime Cloud Access’ add-on from Tally Solutions. Tallycloud.net’s service hosts TallyPrime on a cloud server using RDP — a slightly different but equally powerful approach.
TallyPrime Cloud vs Tally on Cloud — Are They the Same?
Not exactly. Here is the distinction:
| Aspect | TallyPrime Cloud Access | Tally on Cloud (via provider) |
| Provider | Tally Solutions (official) | Third-party like tallycloud.net |
| Access Method | Web browser or Tally app | RDP client |
| Licensing | Included in TSS | Separate subscription |
| Customization | Standard features only | Full customization possible |
| Support | Tally official support | Provider’s dedicated support |
