What we are often asked
Another question? Write to us.
Can we start with a single module?
Yes. Most of our clients start with accounting or payroll, then activate other modules without migration.
Does the ERP handle several frameworks at the same time?
Yes. The same entry can feed SYSCOHADA statements, an IFRS package and regulatory reports through mapping tables.
How is our data migrated?
We migrate balances, third parties, fixed assets and useful history from your previous software or files, with consistency checks.
Is our data secure?
Access is managed by role, every action is logged and backups are automatic, in the cloud or on your servers.
What support is there after go-live?
A support team based in Central Africa answers by phone, e-mail and client portal, with request tracking.
Does the ERP keep up with regulatory changes?
Yes. We update scales, rates and filing formats whenever the rules change.
