Leading Canadian hosting and data services provider selects Acumatica to automate complex financial requirements such as multi-currency billing, contract billing, and variable length service plans.
BETHESDA, Md., December 17, 2009 Acumatica, a provider of web-based accounting, ERP, and CRM software, today announced that Robson Communications implemented the Acumatica Financial Suite and reduced billing production time from two days to a few hours. The new billing process accommodates complex financials and offers customers new electronic delivery options.
Prior to implementing Acumatica, Robson utilized Quickbooks to manage invoicing, financial reporting, and other accounting needs. As Robson’s business grew, they needed features such as multi-currency ledgers, multi-user access, complex invoicing, flexible taxation, and contract billing to more efficiently run their business. Acumatica provided these features and helped Robson reduce billing time by over 50%.
“Acumatica made it easy for us to manage hundreds of hosting options and create sales contracts which include non-recurring consulting fees,” said Tamara Robson, CFO for Robson Communications. “Advanced financial features allowed us to automate all of our business processes to reduce costs and improve bill delivery.”
The Acumatica Financial Suite includes a core set of applications such as General Ledger, Cash Management, Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, Currency Management, and Tax Management which can be deployed on internal and external cloud computing environments. Robson implemented the system internally, and since it is web-based, the system could be accessed from three separate locations. Security features allow different users and teams to view different data according to their level of authorization.
“Acumatica helped Robson save money by automating complex billing and accounting needs that could not be managed using Quickbooks,” said Ezequiel Steiner, CEO at Acumatica. “As their business evolves and changes, Acumatica gives Robson the choice of moving to a SaaS licensing model and moving to an external cloud. This kind of flexible deployment option is among the technologies and trends that Gartner sees as most strategic and transformative for businesses going into 20101.”
