CLOUD BACK OFFICE STAFFING SOFTWARE
Professional Advantage is the largest provider of finance and accounting systems specializing in the staffing and recruitment sector in North America.
As a staffing and recruitment company evolves and grows, we see a common pattern in their focus on system-driven automation and efficiency. The front office gets rapid attention, they need to improve the lead generation, client engagement and candidate management. So, they review their front office systems and invest in a CRM and ATS that helps support the growth and drive efficiency in these work packages.
Particularly for staffing augmentation/contracting agencies, next comes the middle office, and by that, we mean the compliance and onboarding of employees, the capture of time and the pay/bill transaction processing. Again, they review the system landscape for a solution that improves their operational stance. Maybe it's integrated to the CRM and ATS, maybe it's not.
Meantime the CFO and the office of finance are feeling left behind holding the purse strings in an entry-level financial system long past its capability and buried in a sea of spreadsheets trying to keep it all together.
Well no longer – 1Staff 365 Financials is the cloud based, AI-driven, enterprise grade AR, AP and GL solution for staffing and recruitment companies at a fair and reasonable value point for the small to mid-sized agency.
