Acceller Graduates from QuickBooks to Intacct to Improve Reporting and Financial Controls
Intacct’s On-Demand Financial Management System Provides Easier Access to Information and Better Business Insight
SAN JOSE, Calif. (August 05, 2008) –
Intacct, a leader in on-demand financial management and accounting applications, today announced that Acceller has deployed Intacct to improve financial controls and gain greater insight into its business. Acceller, a leading provider of digital services including high-speed Internet, TV, phone and bundles, switched its financial management system to Intacct after outgrowing QuickBooks®.
Like nearly all other companies, Acceller enjoyed using QuickBooks as its first financial system. But, as its business grew rapidly and the company expanded, Acceller began to recognize that it had outstretched the capabilities of QuickBooks. Acceller was ready to graduate to a new financial system with more sophisticated financial reporting, professional financial management capabilities and solid financial controls.
“We wanted a financial management solution that would give us better reporting so we could more easily evaluate and manage our fiscal processes, and have better insight into our business,” said Ivette Ruiz Babylon, controller at Acceller. “It was also important for us to be able to share information with remote staff without having to export data to Excel. We chose Intacct because it offered tremendous capabilities from the start, as well as the ability to customize the solution for our particular needs.”
“QuickBooks is a good entry-level accounting solution, but companies eventually reach a point where they have outgrown the functionality and need a more robust system,” said Daniel Druker, senior vice president of marketing and business development at Intacct. “We’ve become experts in helping thousands of companies like Acceller transition to a productive life after QuickBooks using Intacct.”
Intacct provides Acceller with a complete on-demand financial management system. The company manages all financial processes within Intacct, and now can easily gain access to information it needs to continually optimize its fast-paced and always-changing business. In addition to standard reports, such as income statements, balance sheets and cash flow, Acceller uses the sophisticated financial reporting capabilities in Intacct Insight(TM) to quickly create specialized reports and dashboards.
“As a growing technology and marketing services company, our IT staff is focused on customer support and revenue-generating applications; we don’t have the luxury of a large support staff to lean on for internal application support,” said Babylon. “Intacct is very intuitive and very reliable, so we in finance can completely manage it on our own and make changes as needed.”
Since the company started using Intacct back in 2005, Acceller has benefited from enhanced financial visibility and gained significant improvements to operational efficiency. The company is pleased with the more robust reporting, and everyone in finance – no matter where they are located – has access to the information they need.
Acceller also appreciates the flexibility of Intacct – knowing that the solution will scale as the company continues to grow. The company already has plans to take advantage of Intacct’s native support for salesforce.com to connect its financial and customer relationship management systems.
“Intacct has provided value in many ways. The on-demand delivery enables staff in Miami, Austin and in other remote offices, to all work together as though we’re in the same room. Everyone has visibility into our data, and we have confidence in its accuracy,” Babylon commented. “We’re also able to more quickly create the reports management needs to make important business decisions. Now, with a press of a button, we are able to run the report we need.”
