Quicken

Software and Tech Company with 100 - 249 employees

Minimizing disruptions during a divestiture can define the future of the standalone company. So when Intuit announced it would divest of Quicken in March 2016, Quicken’s leaders needed a new technology foundation that would allow it to grow and evolve a business that has been providing personal finance software for 30 years. It had only six months to transition from the on-premise systems of its former parent company.

Seamless Transition to a Future-Proof Platform

TandemSeven’s accounting and finance teams used a single instance of QuickBooks. Challenges for the business included:

  • 💡

    Fast implementation meets divestiture deadlines

    Quicken chose NetSuite OneWorld for its robust functionality and integration, ease of use, and scalability, seamlessly transitioning from a temporary QuickBooks Online environment in a five-month implementation by the October 1 deadline. NetSuite empowers a lean and growing operation of 100 employees, including 30 in Bangalore.

  • 💡

    Robust functionality, automation for efficiency
    Efficiencies gained through the system and easy integrations with third-party applications like Bill.com allow Quicken to operate with a much smaller accounting team than similar-size businesses, with the flexibility to accommodate complex revenue recognition processes for different product lines.

  • 💡

    Functionality to fuel product evolution
    As Quicken re-architects its own software to run in the cloud, NetSuite’s agile, scalable cloud-based platform will streamline complex revenue recognition processes crucial to selling both traditional license and SaaS solutions. Quicken executives will have real-time insight to evolve products at the pace necessary in this competitive space.

" I’ve used eight different ERP systems—from SAP to QuickBooks Online. NetSuite is perfect. It’s not too complex, not too simple. It’s flexible and powerful, but still easy to use."
