Exact’s software suite digitizes business processes like financial management, CRM, HR, and payroll. It integrates with primary processes in accountancy, professional services, wholesale, manufacturing, and construction while empowering SMEs to make better business decisions.

Additionally, Exact’s white-label offering of Qlik delivers the seamless integration SME customers expect to drive immediate and measurable business value from the start.
“Our longstanding partnership with Exact is a great example of the mutually beneficial relationships that come from a commitment to a common cause,” said Francisco Mateo-Sidron, Senior Vice President EMEA for Qlik. “We believe Data Literacy can empower decision makers at all levels of the organization to do great things. Exact adds tremendous value in implementing and training SME users to tap into their data to inform their next decision, just as a data scientist at a Fortune 500 company would.”
