SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – July 12, 2016 – Esker, a worldwide leader in document process automation solutions and pioneer in cloud computing , today announced that it is a finalist in the 2016 SaaS Awards Program in three categories: Best SaaS Product for ERP, Best SaaS Product for Business Accounting or Finance and Best SaaS Product for Management Accounting or Budgeting.
With awards for excellence and innovation in SaaS, the Software-as-a-Service Awards program received more than 200 entries from around the world, including companies located in the US, Canada, Australasia, UK and EMEA. 2016 is the inaugural year for The SaaS Awards program, which is partnered with the annual Cloud Awards.
“Our mission is to enable our customers to streamline their business processes by improving efficiencies, accuracy, visibility and costs,” said Steve Smith, U.S. chief operating officer at Esker. “We consider it validation of our success in that goal to be recognised among the best SaaS providers worldwide.“
Esker’s solutions help organisations automate multiple document-based business processes on one integrated platform, approaching the entire cash conversion cycle through one interface. Esker was also the first to offer 100% cloud-based solutions that free businesses from buying, building or maintaining the necessary IT infrastructure.
“We have seen a great adoption of Esker’s SaaS solutions for order management and accounts payable in the Australian and New Zealand markets over the past 7-8 years. To be nominated in three categories is a fantastic recognition of the commitment of the Esker teams to driving Cloud adoption through smart and robust Cloud software solutions,” said Christophe DuMonet, Managing Director at Esker ANZ.
Esker’s sales order processing (SOP) solution, which automates the entire order process, from the reception of a customer order to its creation in the ERP/business application, is a finalist for the Best SaaS Product for ERP category. Esker’s accounts payable (AP) solution, which streamlines the process of verifying, entering vendor invoices and getting approval of the order, is a finalist for the Best SaaS Product for Business Accounting or Finance and the Best SaaS Product for Management or Accounting categories.
SaaS Awards and Cloud Awards organizer Larry Johnson said: “The SaaS Awards is a recognition platform specifically for software solutions. In a maturing international marketplace for cloud services, SaaS has proven to be the poster boy for leveraging thin-client technologies, while ensuring end-users are always working at the cutting edge.”
