ROI on choosing the right partner? Priceless.

When you choose BlackLine for financial automation, you’re following in the footsteps of almost 400,000 accountants worldwide who use it daily. 

BlackLine delivers ROI in abundance with a 70% faster close and 50% less time spent on audits. You’ll also reduce manual efforts by 85%, intercompany variances at month end by 96%, foreign exchange exposure by 50%, and more.  

But how do you confidently choose a partner that can deliver on BlackLine’s good name and add even more value? 

1. rack record: What’s their experience in your region and your industry? And do they have real-world experience? 
2. Approach: What’s their approach during the discovery phase, and how does that influence the project set-up? 
3. Support: What support do they offer before and after go-live? 
4. Knowledge: Do they live and breathe accounting and finance? Do they ‘get’ you and your organisation needs to be successful?  
5. Certification: Are they a Gold BlackLine solution partner, and do they have specialist certifications?
