I'm a CA in public practice that migrated our 150+ SMSF clients over to Class 2 years ago. No regrets, it saves us time with the automatic data feeds from banks & brokers etc.. Our entire industry is busy migrating to the cloud, from MYOB & Reckon to Xero. From Desktop Super to Class. Clients like seeing their entire SMSF on a report - not just the stockbrokers report which contains some of the fund's assets. Class also aids SMSF auditors with integrated property valuations and actuarial reports from 3rd parties. A one stop shop that makes it a no brainer for the practitioner.
Class most definitely won't become a market leader in the long run but it will experience considerable growth over the next few years as the smaller/medium firms complete the migration for their baby boomer (and Gen X) clients. I would expect Class to one day be a tasty morsel for a bigger fish. Consider the OFX & VED journeys.
Enjoy the ride peeps - shares will be scarce since a large chunk of the IPO allocation was to customers like me using their own SMSFs who will most definitely be holding for the long run and the juicy dividend yield.
