  • "We have used other toolsets in some of our processes, but you need to be very technical to work with them effectively. We’re responsible for getting our data into SAP but we’re not technical people. We needed an easy way of uploading data. We were also starting to get backlogs of work because the processes we were using were too manually intensive and slow."

  • “Previously, our validation process was manual and very laborious, but with the centralized portal in place, our time is now spent on value-added work as the automation process is seamless and the reports are available on the portal every morning.”

  • "I don't understand why everyone doesn't use Quadrate. Why waste time and money to employ expensive resources to work with your data when there's a toolset available that can do it so quickly and easily?"

  • “We can now clearly show our business users how and where their legacy data would result in an error when put through the transformations and validations of the target system.”

  • “We realized that there were a few critical data related issues that we needed to address integrity of legacy beginning balances from different systems, correctness of ongoing transactions, and completeness of transactions booked. The situation necessitated a quick diagnostic process followed by speedy follow through action in the form of an initial data assessment that is backed by a partnership until go-live. BackOffice presented a methodology and solution that reduced the time cycle from six to nine months to less than five months.”

  • “BackOffice’s collaborative, customer-first approach and deep expertise were instrumental in helping us take our data quality standards to the next level with dramatic improvement.”

  • "It would have been too costly to try to convert our legacy system to integrate with a modern technology platform. That was the driver to abandon our 20-year-old system and start from scratch. We knew that to grow with our customer base in the future, we needed technology of the future as our foundation."

  • "Having the right data in the right format is as critical as having the right system in place, and this was one of the most effective implementations I've been a part of."

  • “There were so many barriers and data rules in place within our SAP systems that manually deleting the Canada Bread data in our SAP systems would have been extremely time consuming, costly and difficult without the help of BackOffice Associates.”

  • "New releases of Quadrate bring new capabilities that are genuinely helpful to us, even improvements based on feedback we have given to BackOffice. A good example is the tools for managing logs. In the early days, we were uploading about 200 materials to SAP every day. This entailed the generation of horrendous log files that were difficult to use. I mentioned this to Philippe Jardin and in the next release logs were completely reworked with new tools for sorting, searching, selecting and deleting records. It is refreshing to be listened to."

  • "Failure was not an option. We had to go-live on the appointed day since the consequences for the many companies impacted would have been too significant to imagine and endure...I am confident that significant manual effort reduction was possible due to BackOffice Associates being there. This, in turn, was key to the overall success of the data migration and the upgrade."

  • “BackOffice has helped us to achieve over 99% load accuracy on-time and on-budget, thereby enabling us to have better reconciliation and be more efficient."

  • “Our implementation partner was a key factor in the selection of our EPM platform… CPM Consulting worked with us to streamline our financial consolidation and budgeting process. Rapid implementation methodology, templates and extensive experience helped us to complete our project successfully and in a short time frame.”

  • “Using the evaluation tool, we implemented a majority of our solution within an hour.”

  • “Instead of using SQL replication and having to battle with unknown errors with little to no support, we needed a better solution. And with such a small team, we needed to reduce our time re-inventing the wheel and instead find something that works.”
