geographies and work groups ,” said Daniel Denton , IT Director at Menzies . “ Beyond the productivity and collaboration gains we expect , a secure platform like iManage Cloud ensures all of our confidential documents are properly looked after – allowing us to confidently address regulations like GDPR .”
Menzies was particularly impressed with the tight integrations iManage Work has with Microsoft Excel and Outlook , which are essential to accounting work .
Additionally , after a thorough review of the market , Menzies felt iManage provides more robust email management , a better record of stability and uptime and is more intuitive than competing offerings , making it easy for staff to pick up .
iManage , a company dedicated to transforming how professionals work , has announced that Menzies LLP – a leading UK accountancy firm offering the full range of services including business and personal tax , audit and compliance , transaction services and strategic advisory services across London , Surrey , Hampshire and Cardiff – has selected iManage Cloud as the strategic work product management platform to support the firm as it grows organically and through acquisition .
The firm had outgrown its legacy on-premises , which was no longer fit for purpose . Leveraging the document and email management platform , iManage Work 10 , as a secure , high availability cloud service , allows the firm to take a technological leap forward – breaking down information silos and gaining organisational agility , while establishing a solid cloud foundation to build upon .
“ iManage Cloud solves the information fragmentation problem that multi-office firms face . It brings important files , regardless of location , together in one system of record , enabling our staff to work quickly and efficiently to service our clients across iManage partner Morae , which acquired long-time iManage partner Phoenix Business Solutions in 2019 , played an important role during this requirements gathering process , setting up a demo system that allowed Menzies to get first-hand experience with Work 10 ’ s streamlined user interface and try out features like search and email filing .
“ Working with Morae was a smooth process . We felt that they understood thoroughly the needs of our industry and our firm ’ s specific requirements ,” said Denton .
The firm expects to complete its move to iManage Cloud by the end of Q1 2021 . Once completed , there will be approximately 450 users within the firm across all seven of its UK offices .
“ iManage delivers what the professional services market needs in a work productivity platform to drive efficiency and allow for effective growth and collaboration ,” said Geoff Hornsby , General Manager , EMEA , iManage .
“ By making an investment in iManage Cloud , Menzies is gaining a system that can keep pace with it and support its ability to deliver the highest level of accounting services and strategic commercial thinking as it grows .” �
