Needs
Manually Managing Monthly Closures
Five years ago, SIG significantly revamped its technology stack. Initially using diverse ERP and accounting solutions, the company encountered challenges in addressing its complex financial and project management needs. Seeking a Salesforce-based solution, SIG opted for Certinia PS Cloud. Certinia’s seamless integration within its Salesforce instance distinguished it from competitors, eliminating the need for additional integrations. This choice marked a pivotal moment, driving a transformative shift in SIG’s efficiency and functionality.
