Our Mission

"Cougar Mountain Software is an innovative business solutions company committed to providing customers with high-value integrated accounting software applications combined with excellent services and customized solutions. We will nurture increasing double-digit growth and profitability as an extension of customer benefits. Core values include a high degree of integrity, customer satisfaction, and a commitment to employee appreciation and rewards."


Cougar Mountain Software was founded in 1982 with a vision to develop powerful accounting, nonprofit accounting, and point of sale software solutions. Back then, founder, Bob Gossett, knew PCs would change the face of accounting practices and began to develop software to meet the demands of growing businesses. Bob grew the company around the principals of quality service and product integrity, knowing that high standards in both areas would beget successful products and satisfied customers. Additionally all product development and customer/technical support has always been done at our Boise, Idaho corporate headquarters.

Today these same practices and principals continue to govern our own business growth. Cougar Mountain's product offering has grown from a single accounting program to an extensive list of software applications and accompanying services for our customers. We sell our software through a sales force in our corporate headquarters in Boise, Idaho as well as through a nationwide network of business partners.

In order to accomplish the above mission statement we must first deliver on creating products and services that foster our customers’ success; allowing them to make important management decisions, increase efficiency, and save money in order to grow and be successful. Our products consistently garner top reviews that praise their ease of use, flexibility and high levels of security. Cougar Mountain Software's products are developed and supported in the United States.

American made and supported -- Cougar Mountain Software products are exclusively developed inside the United States. Technical support is provided solely from our offices in Boise, Idaho.
