Reflecting on the 2021 accomplishments, CEO Martin Kratky shared how working closely with customers and partners enabled the company to grow dramatically:
“We are fortunate to have been working alongside some of the world’s largest and competent FP&A teams. It has enabled us to add true enterprise capabilities, particularly from scale, governance and security aspects, to our products and evolve the technology to meet customers’ planning and reporting needs meticulously. We use customer feedback to drive our product development efforts and allocate 80% of the annual budget to R&D, ensuring we are continuously rolling out features that help users approach financial planning and reporting more efficiently.”
Acterys released two major versions in 2021– v21.1 and v21.2. Each version came with significant new updates and features to make enterprise-level planning, consolidation and reporting easier and more agile for our customers. Some of the noteworthy updates include:
• Power BI Sync – a new solution added to the product line
• Acterys add-on for Excel Online
• Oracle NetSuite connector available as an Acterys App
• An enhanced token-based authentication system for all Acterys Visuals
The FP&A software provider has been consistently taking several steps to improve its infrastructure security and quality, ensuring better compliance with international standards. It has undergone an extensive review of security processes and penetration tests by working with experts from SEC Consult, who confirmed the robustness of its enterprise-grade infrastructure and efforts in that area. In addition, the company is in the process of securing ISO 9000 certification for quality assurance and working towards becoming a US Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) authorized SaaS provider.
