Fast Implementation

Clarivos implemented both solutions in four months. Electra’s finance team was able to learn the systems with minimal training and start using them in a matter of weeks. The software is delivering as promised and Electra is now planning ahead to move from reporting as an investment trust to the additional requirements of reporting as a normal UK corporate.

Cloud deployment means I have access to systems and information wherever our team members are in the world. From a group accounting point of view in a business like ours this is a huge benefit
