Financial Directors vote IRIS Enterprise Software as No 1

IRIS Enterprise Software has won its first high profile Industry Award as part of the IRIS Group. The company was named 'Financial Software Provider of the Year (smaller implementations)' at the prestigious 2006 Real Finance/CBI FDs' Excellence Awards on April 6th this year.

It is the second time that the company has claimed the award which is based on an in-depth survey of the views of a sizeable cross-section of Financial Directors (579). The title was awarded in 2005 to Exchequer Software, as it was known before its name change to IRIS Enterprise Software.

The mid range accounting software developer has always been identified as a benchmark within the industry and claims the unique accolade of winning more 'Best Mid-Range
Accounting Software' awards than any other author.

Stuart Dawson, Managing Director of IRIS Enterprise Software collected the award. He said: "Winning the title 'Financial Software Provider of the Year' is even more of an achievement this year as it marks the first major award for the new IRIS Enterprise Software team.

"Our award winning software is enhanced by being part of the IRIS Group. High levels of investment mean that we can produce even more innovative solutions and explore exciting and new areas of the market."

Commenting on IRIS Enterprise's success, Richard Young, Editor and Publishing Director of Real Finance, said: "The great thing about the Real Finance/CBI FDs' Excellence Awards, in association with Bank of Scotland Corporate, is that they're based on the votes of FDs using the winning products and services.

"There was nothing IRIS, nor any other of the short-listed organisations (Access Accounting, Microsoft Navision, Pegasus, Red Sky IT Systems, Sage, SAP, Sun Accounts), could do to influence a panel of judges or spend huge amounts of money on a flashy entry pack. The only way you win one of our awards is to offer the UK's finance directors great products and excellent service."

One FD who completed the Real Finance Satisfaction Survey said of IRIS: "The service is excellent." Another commented: "Exchequer software is superb, and the company is really good too. For once I have a system I'm happy to sing the praises for and recommend. In particular their links to Excel make the system really useful outside finance - even sales people can easily use Excel to produce reports showing live data in just minutes."
