Conifer Holdings Gains Modern Accounting, Business Reporting, and More with Oracle Financials Cloud
Thu, Nov 9, 2017 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM EST
The executive team at Conifer made the decision to move to Oracle Cloud for many reasons. The fact that Conifer is a public company, and required to meet certain control requirements that were too cumbersome to execute in the insurance company’s old system, was one driving factor.
The legacy system was not able to produce the managerial reporting that Conifer needed to make important business decisions. Conifer also wanted a modern financial system to help the company gain certain efficiencies – such as the ability to have multiple companies in a journal, intercompany accounting, and consolidation reporting within the system. Come hear about their journey in finding the right solution.
