Case Study: SNG Grant Thornton empowers accountants to become advisors with Syft Analytics

SNG Grant Thornton empowers its accountants to become advisors with Syft

SNG Grant Thornton, the South African member firm of the global Grant Thornton network, sought to modernize its operations and empower its accountants to become forward-looking advisors. Their challenge was to move beyond traditional data manipulation and reporting after a major shift from the desktop-based Pastel software to the cloud-based Xero accounting platform. They needed a new analytics solution to transform their financial reporting processes.

The vendor Syft Analytics provided the solution, offering an easy-to-use reporting and analytics platform that delivered consistency and a customized look. The Syft platform provided clear, graphical reports that clients could easily understand, transforming the accountants' role from data processors to strategic advisors. SNG Grant Thornton reported that Syft was a "game changer," with clients now actively engaging with their reports. The firm also highlighted Syft's exceptional localized support, noting that support tickets were resolved in under 20 minutes.
