Case Study: Aspiritech achieves greater transparency and faster reporting with Abacum

How Aspiritech transformed transparency & reporting with Abacum

Aspiritech, a Chicago-based nonprofit that operates like a business, needed a better FP&A solution to improve transparency and reporting across a wide range of stakeholders, including its board, donors, and internal teams. With only QuickBooks Online and manual financial processes, the team struggled to get real-time insights, forecast growth, and scale efficiently. Abacum was selected after evaluating more than 20 FP&A tools, thanks to its flexibility and ease of use for a lean finance team.

Abacum connected Aspiritech’s data across QuickBooks Online, Paylocity, and Salesforce, automating reporting, forecasting, and data flows while providing a single source of truth for financial insights. The result was stronger transparency, better collaboration, and data-driven decision-making, with an estimated 30-50 executive hours saved per month. Abacum also helped Aspiritech measure client-level profitability, ARR growth, and other key trends, enabling the nonprofit to scale without adding headcount.
