Challenges

Consolidated West Distributing, a produce broker specializing in apples, pears, and cherries, struggled with disconnected sales and accounting systems. Previously using standalone QuickBooks, they faced inefficiencies, double-data entry, and limitations as the operation expanded.

“I was frustrated with QuickBooks’ limitations as our company grew. It’s not applicable to a sophisticated business like ours.”
