Case Study: Sutton McGrath achieves restored efficiency and up to £70,000 saved in time costs with IRIS Software Group

Sutton McGrath returns to IRIS after traumatic experience”

Sutton McGrath, a firm of Chartered and Chartered Certified Accountants with offices in Sheffield and Chesterfield, had long used IRIS Software Group’s IRIS Accountancy Suite but in 2012 moved to a competing, cheaper solution to test the market. The alternative promised a modern interface and full integration but proved only partially integrated and slow, increasing time spent on data input and extraction and creating recurring inefficiencies for the practice.

Sutton McGrath reverted to IRIS Software Group and the IRIS Accountancy Suite, restoring a centralised database, automation and a suite of truly integrated modules. The move recovered many hours of valuable practice time—Sutton McGrath estimates the failed switch cost between £50,000 and £70,000 in lost time—and delivered the time savings and efficient workflows they had previously experienced with IRIS.
