ASYST International SA, the sole southern African distributor for UK-based Access Accounts` leading accounts and business software, today announced that Access Accounting has reported the biggest increase in turnover in the group`s history for the year to June 2005, with revenues rising 33%.
This growth has been fuelled by a 42% increase in new site sales, and the acquisition of manufacturing software company, Access Supply Chain, the previous year.
Access` national network of channel partners had an unprecedented year with 92% of its top dealers growing by more than 20% during the year. In the same period, inbound customer support calls in the UK dropped by 5%.
In addition, the independent UK assessments on Access Accounting have also yielded excellent results. For example, the ICAEW analysis of mid-market accounting software solutions showed that Access has the lowest incidence of business-critical failures and a survey by Real Finance magazine showed that Access was the package most likely to be recommended by its users.
"Our vision is to be the business and finance software that every user recommends," added Alistair O`Reilly, Managing Director of Access Accounting. "This drives an ethos of exceptional quality and service throughout everything we do. The year ahead will be another investment year for Access as we grow our solutions and channel ready to meet tomorrow`s business needs with cutting-edge technology and cast iron reliability."
"Access Accounting has a solid history of delivering market leading software that is stable and intuitive to use," commented Dennis Marketos, MD of ASYST International. "Our customers give us great feedback and we have seen the user base of Access Accounts grow significantly over the past 12 months, both in new sites and existing customers."
ASYST International SA has a significant base of Access Accounts users in southern Africa, particularly in SA and Kenya.
