Press Release - Thursday, November 22, 2007
Access Accounting has received double honours at the Anglian Business Awards clinching the Innovation and Technology Award and the runner-up title for Business of the Year.
The honours were presented on Thursday 22nd November at the Trinity Park Conference and Events Centre in Ipswich.
Barry Anderson, marketing director for Access Accounting, commented, “I’m delighted that Access has been recognised as a company that embraces new innovation and technology, through the software that we provide our valued customers.
“As the UK’s largest independent business and accounting software house in the mid-market, we are dedicated to developing new solutions and working closely with third-party software providers to offer fully-integrated solutions that meet our customers growing business needs. Our teams’ dedication to finding new and innovative ways to expand our Dimensions solution continues to bring us closer to our vision of providing the software that every user will positively recommend.”
Access Accounting was awarded the accolade for its flagship Access Dimensions solution, which has been extended to include a suite of web portal modules aimed at the project management-based professional services market. The solution allows businesses to view the status of their projects, budgets and resources at a glance – all via standard web access. It also allows them to update information online including keying in expenses and timesheets directly into the system, saving a huge amount of time and money.
The celebratory evening, which was compared by comedian Dominic Holland, brought together businesses from all over Anglia to celebrate success in the region.
The Anglian Business Awards, which are in their tenth year, recognises excellence and achievement in the business community. There were 14 categories this year including Marketing, Young Business Person, Business Development, and Community Involvement.
