Pest control company boosts visibility with cloud-based implementation
Read this case study to learn how our cloud-based implementation helped Cingo have better visibility and real-time insight into its bottom-line.
Client background
Cingo, formerly Allgood Pest Solutions, has been protecting families from pests in the southeast since 1974. What began as a one-man operation in Dublin, Georgia has grown to a team of 100 and is still owned by the Allgood family. Cingo operates in markets throughout Georgia and South Carolina and has won numerous awards for its superior service and values. Cingo attributes their success to a simple business plan built on core values that has shaped its culture and guided its actions to ensure a flawless customer experience.
Travis Craft, CFO, CingoI thought that after our implementation was complete we wouldn’t have contact with Baker Tilly. That couldn’t be further from the truth – Baker Tilly's customer success manager schedules quarterly calls with me to see how we are doing with Sage Intacct.
The business challenge
Cingo was outgrowing its current accounting solution, Sage 100/MAS 90. Not wanting to invest in an on-premise model, going to the cloud was a quintessential requirement. In addition, Cingo needed a solution that:
- Had enough horsepower to set them up for future growth
- Provided for electronic approvals
- Interfaced with their printers
- Integrated with Bill.com
Travis Craft, CFO, CingoAs we grow and expand our use of Sage Intacct, we have had questions that Baker Tilly has been able to resolve quickly and efficiently. Baker Tilly has exceeded my expectations.
Strategy and solution
Cingo sought the help of the accounting firm Moore Colson to aid in its search. After careful analysis, it chose Baker Tilly to implement Sage Intacct. Baker Tilly's platform offered everything that Cingo was looking for in a cloud-based accounting solution. In addition, Baker Tilly’s team had the experience in both Sage Intacct and Bill.com and could therefore provide a holistic implementation.
Baker Tilly guided Cingo to create a realistic timeline for implementing Sage Intacct and Bill.com. It was important for Cingo to run its business while also being able to make the necessary changes in its accounting systems. The result was a smooth implementation process that hit all the right milestones. Moving to a cloud-based solution was a significant upgrade for Cingo.
Cingo now has anytime anywhere access to its financials, including:
- Automated creation of its financial statements which meant statements no longer had to be manually sent out to individuals
- Baker Tilly's Bill.com integration with Sage Intacct allows Cingo to automate the way it pays bills
- Better visibility and real-time insight into its bottom-line
