Read the Study

Enterprise accounting teams cut close time in half, reduced external audit fees by 30%, improved internal audit efficiency by 15%, and achieved payback in under 6 months.

FloQast commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact™ study in January 2026, interviewing decision-makers at complex, global organizations to uncover what happens when enterprise accounting teams deploy FloQast.

The Total Economic Impact™ of FloQast

FloQast saved time, reduced stress, and improved the bottom line. Our customers agree.

"Overall, it's an excellent product with great user adoption. With companies of our size and larger, it's almost impossible to actually close without having it. 
I think people would literally lose their minds now to go backwards."
