Consulting Firm Uses Lease Accounting Software for Firms and Clients

ProNexus has been facing a significant challenge: helping clients adopt and comply with the new lease accounting standard, ASC 842. The firm knew that if clients tried to manually use spreadsheets, even for a small lease portfolio, it would be time consuming and introduce the risk of inaccuracies now and in the future. ProNexus recognized that software would not only be more efficient, but help reduce errors and decrease the time it takes to audit. As a result, one of the company’s primary objectives and priorities was to advocate for the use of software to streamline the process.

After evaluating several lease accounting platforms, ProNexus decided on LeaseCrunch to help their clients implement ASC 842. ProNexus liked that LeaseCrunch is designed to be easy to use. Clients can get up and running quickly and have minimal questions, further simplifying adoption. The software allows them to view all their clients in a single dashboard, and also offers simultaneous client and CPA firm access for collaborative implementation and ongoing lease accounting support. Finally, they found it to be cost effective compared to other solutions in the market.

Key factors ProNexus took into consideration:

1. Cost Effective: The software is easy to log into and to navigate.
2. Big Picture Reporting: The in-app tool tips and guidance helps users answer questions about nuances within the standard, making it easy to use even for non-lease accounting experts.
3. Unrivaled Support: Purpose-built for CPA firms, the ability to manage all clients in one place makes it allows the firm to serve clients better, faster and easier.

Since using LeaseCrunch, the firm has reduced overall costs because the software’s efficiency has saved their team work during the audit. Staff are able to get amortization schedules, journal entries and footnote disclosures which allows them to look at leases holistically. They also find LeaseCrunch support to be exceptional and always available to answer questions.

ProNexus has taken the time to invest in educating their clients on the tool and onboarding those with significant lease portfolios. The firm is committed to transitioning more clients from spreadsheets to LeaseCrunch so that they are able to understand existing leases clearly and have access to a proven solution for current and future lease accounting standards.

ProNexus not only uses LeaseCrunch for its clients but is also a LeaseCrunch customer.
