Ovation Data's Success with Sage Intacct & itas


In this customer transformation story, we explore how Ovation Data successfully implemented Sage Intacct, a powerful financial management system, with the help of their Sage Intacct partner, itas (that's us!), to streamline their operations and improve their overall business efficiency.

"Once we'd seen Intacct, it was...a different way of looking at things....If I ask for...a breakdown of a certain thing, I can go in and look for it, whereas with Sage 200, I was very limited. It was a lot more spreadsheet work with Sage 200....with Intacct... It's all in the system... The reporting it gives us is absolutely fabulous."

The Challenges Faced by Ovation Data


These challenges impacted productivity, increased costs, and hindered their ability to meet customer demands effectively.

Hear from Ovation Data


Impressed by the improvements in their London office, Ovation Data decided to implement Sage Intacct globally, “We’re so impressed with Sage Intacct in the London office, we’ve decided to go global with it!” The multi-entity and multi-currency features allowed for easy consolidation and management of their global operations.


“Working with itas, it’s almost like you are all employed to work with us! It’s an absolutely fantastic relationship and it’s just made it such a smoother process and an actual fun process working in Sage Intacct... I look forward to it now!"


OVATION DATA SERVICES
Ovation Data encountered some challenges during the initial implementation of Sage Intacct due to a partner who lacked in-depth knowledge of the system. However, once they brought itas on board, the implementation process became significantly smoother. With itas’ expertise in accountancy and Sage Intacct, the team at Ovation Data felt supported and confident in the new system.

"We did have another consultancy company when we initially got Sage Intacct and that was a completely different experience. Once itas came on board it was so easy. We wish you’d been on board right at the beginning because we would’ve been in a much better place earlier on."

Seamless Implementation with itas

Working with itas provided Ovation Data with a reliable, knowledgeable partner who could offer continuous support and guidance. The strong relationship built between the two companies resulted in a positive and enjoyable experience, ensuring that Ovation Data could make the most of their Sage Intacct system.

"Working with itas has dramatically reduced my blood pressure! Obviously, an accounts system is critical to anyone’s business, and now working with itas, I don’t have any concerns with our accounts functionality. Working with previous partners I’ve got some grey hairs and sleepless nights, but working with itas has been an absolute pleasure, and long may the relationship continue!"
