Sage Intacct Salesforce Integration 4 No CFO wants to se le for "good enough," but for too long, this has been the hallmark of enterprise financial so ware. Back in the bad old days, we had two choices for so ware implementations to run the business: • Separate modules of functionally rich so ware - that could never deliver the right level of interoperability • A suite of "Worst in Class" so ware components that worked together - but could never automate or streamline processes efficiently Instead of wallowing in the bad old days, maybe it's a good idea to consider this: When you selected Salesforce�com as your customer relationship management (CRM) system, you made a visionary, forward-thinking decision by choosing more than just an industry-leading application. You chose an entire platform and ecosystem with robust functionality, unparalleled ease-of-use, effortless user adoption, and an undisputable system of record for your customer relationships and sales processes� Doesn't it make sense to apply that same forward-facing thinking and strategic vision to your financial management solution?
