Testimonials

Resort Municipality of Whistler (North America) "You can do things with Agresso that aren't easily done with other financial solutions. With Agresso, I can get what I want, when I want it. Agresso provides us with the agility to respond quickly to changes in our business and continue to maintain historical information. Our previous system didn't impart the confidence that we need in our day-to-day operations and ever-changing landscape. With the challenges that face local governments today, the senior management team can't afford to expose themselves to unnecessary risks. Agresso has delivered!" - Robert Surtees, IT Manager

City of Bergen (Norway) “We have useful indicators to show our annual profits the Agresso solution has given us. In total, we are looking at a double digit million amount which alone is a good enough reason to continue to develop the solution.” - Per Kristian Knutsen, Director of Finance

City of Huddinge (Sweden) “The flexibility the system is providing is important in handling large reorganizations. We completely changed the structure of our organization two years ago, but we could keep the financial reporting because we didn't have to change our attributes in the system between the old and the new organization. This was a big advantage to us.” – Nicolas Prigorowsky

Augsburg College (USA) “It was not about meeting the needs we see today, it was about meeting the needs we don’t even know about yet. And that’s what our fundamental investment had to be all about.” – Leif Anderson, CIO

Derwent Shared Services (UK) “Throughout all the changes it simply wouldn’t have been possible to keep providing a fast, reliable and accurate financial service to the ever growing number of organizations if we hadn’t had a flexible, easy to adapt system in place and ongoing support from the vendor.” – Nicola Smith, Director of Client Development

Destiny Resource Services Corp. (North America) “The Agresso solution was the best solution to address our requirements for a seamless one source entry fully integrated ERP system. This was a very important factor in our decision making process. Of our review of ERP products in the market, the Agresso solution was the best choice for us.” – Patrick Egli, Vice-President Finance & Administration, Chief Financial Officer

LogicaCMG (UK) “For more than a decade, LogicaCMG has taken change in its stride using Agresso business systems. Remarkably, globalization, a substantial merger, the introduction of IFRS and the growing demands of an expanding products and services organization have all been satisfied at a local and group level without any bespoke modifications.” – Andrew Smith West, Systems Accountant
“When I made the decision to offshore our F&A transaction processing it was vital that there was no degradation in financial control both during transition and when the new service went live. My neck was on the block, but I had every confidence that our Agresso system was robust enough to support this radical change.” – Kevin Radley UK COO and FD

Halcrow Engineering (UK) “Introducing Agresso as our core business system was critical in helping us move forward. The data can be retrieved, manipulated and analyzed easily so we have an accurate picture of the business’ performance by sector, region or client. Equally important is that Agresso is flexible enough to change with us, allowing us to structure and run the group in the way we want. The quality and visibility of the data, which can be retrieved very quickly, has sharpened our commercial awareness and undoubtedly improved cash flow.” – Jim Billinghurst, Finance Director
“In the past such a restructure would have involved many weeks or even months of system reconfiguration. The whole process was completed in Agresso in just two days.” – Jeremy Burroughs, Systems Accountant about the major restructuring of Halcrow back in 2002

Faceo (Benelux) “If there are changes in our business then we can easily make adjustments. The implementation of the system was a turbulent period for our organization. A reorganization meant a different management structure, we were about to change location from Antwerp to Brussels and we had a number of new customers. You can say that it was the most dynamic period in the short life of Faceo. Nevertheless, during the implementation we were still able to implement certain organizational changes in the system. Agresso Business World gives us more control, without even discussing the flexibility. That is unique.” – Xavier Declerck, Director of Administration and Finance

Adelman Travel (North America) “A solution that will allow us to take and grow our business to any size that we desire and take our business in any direction that we see as advantageous to us in the future.” – Ami Skaar, Controller

Royal Haskoning (Netherlands) “Optimal management of the cash flow is extremely important for a professional service provider; also due to the complexity of the organization and the changes that it is subjected to. Last year we increased our net profit three-fold and the liquidity position also increased by € 20 million. We are proud to grow, and counteract the market trend.” – Ir. R.M. Noppeney MBA, Director Corporate Finance
