QuickBooks graduates experience growth and success with a modern cloud ERP platform that enhances visibility and automates processes
Bellevue, Wash., – August 14, 2024 — Many small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) reach a crossroads when growth outpaces the capabilities of basic accounting software like QuickBooks. As business operations become more complex, QuickBooks’s limitations can result in roadblocks that hinder efficiency, productivity and scalability. An increasing number of businesses have graduated from QuickBooks and succeeded in achieving their growth ambitions with Acumatica Cloud ERP. The comprehensive business management solution offers advanced accounting capabilities, seamless application integrations, superior usability and scalable solutions tailored to specific industries.
“We are seeing more and more companies that need to scale their operations and are ready to leap to a comprehensive business management solution,” said John Case, CEO of Acumatica. “For growing SMBs, Acumatica is not just an upgrade; it’s a complete reimagining of business management, designed to meet their changing needs.”
One customer that has outgrown its basic accounting software and embraced cloud ERP is Phoenix Renovation & Restoration, a contracting company that previously relied on QuickBooks for accounting. The system struggled to support expanding operations, making simple accounting tasks time-consuming and inhibiting cash flow projection. Once team members finalized reports, they were often two to three weeks outdated due to manual data entry. The company needed a more robust solution to simultaneously manage hundreds of open projects.
“Acumatica has made our lives easier by providing enhanced visibility, creating a culture and expectation of accountability and providing our team with real-time data at their fingertips anytime, anywhere,” said Eric Hugunin, chief operating officer of Phoenix Renovation & Restoration. “Since going live on Acumatica, we’ve eliminated the need to tap into our line of credit, becoming cash flow positive for the longest period in 25 years.”
“Many businesses have been using QuickBooks alongside other disparate systems such as CRM and inventory management,” said Case. “Acumatica Cloud ERP goes beyond just replacing these starter systems like QuickBooks and consolidates all these operations into a single platform, offering a powerful system that enables businesses to transform their operations through streamlined processes, enhanced visibility and access to real-time data for better decision-making. Additionally, customers have the flexibility to customize and integrate Acumatica with hundreds of other solutions.”
Acumatica customer DiamondBack Truck Covers, a truck bed cover manufacturer, struggled with inefficiencies when feeding several systems into QuickBooks. These obstacles resulted in hours spent on manual data entry, creating bottlenecks in order tracking and customer relationship management. Acumatica reduced the time needed to gather data by 90%, enhancing efficiency through automation.
Similarly, Q-PAC Systems, Inc., a custom plug-and-play fan system manufacturer, needed more visibility into its production and inventory, which hindered its growth potential. After adopting Acumatica, Q-PAC benefited from automated processes, saving valuable time and improving inventory and production tracking. The company also experienced enhanced billing accuracy and more efficient warehouse management. Leveraging Acumatica, Q-PAC will be able to support its growth plans of increasing production by five to 10 times.
These customers are only a handful of the hundreds of organizations that have found business success transitioning from QuickBooks to Acumatica Cloud ERP. Businesses across industries are growing rapidly, and Acumatica delivers the modern ERP solutions they need to reach new heights.
“QuickBooks is suitable for small organizations needing basic accounting capabilities. However, as businesses embark on their growth journey, they require a more comprehensive and adaptable solution. That’s where Acumatica comes in,” said Case. “We deliver a scalable business solution engineered to grow their operations and tailored to their specific industry needs.”
