Case Study: Stack Overflow achieves a 5‑day faster monthly close and a 2‑month remote audit with FloQast

Sage Intacct and FloQast Provide Right Tools to Optimize Stack Overflow’s Accounting Processes

Stack Overflow, founded in 2008, is a leading developer community and provider of the Stack Overflow for Teams SaaS platform. The finance team faced inefficient, Excel-based consolidation and month-end close processes and needed to better leverage existing cloud tools while adapting to remote work under the new Financial Controller, Andrew Rankin.

By moving consolidations fully into Sage Intacct and using FloQast (including FloQast Flux) to assign tasks, track work, and standardize audit deliverables, the team eliminated error-prone manual steps and tightened controls. The improvements cut the monthly close by five days (to about 10 days), boosted accountability, morale, and communication, and helped complete a first-year remote audit in two months.
