CRM specialist RADAR Software is becoming part of Visma. Hogenhouck M&A advised RADAR Software founders Brigitte Buntinx and Harrie van den Bersselaar on this transaction.
CRM System for the Modern Accountant
RADAR Software was founded twenty years ago and focuses on providing CRM solutions to accounting and bookkeeping firms. Today, more than 650 bookkeeping and accounting firms use RADAR Software.
Brigitte Buntinx, Director of RADAR: “As a CRM cloud service provider, we want to offer our customers the widest range of possibilities. We have deliberately chosen to position ourselves as a specialist in the market for accounting and bookkeeping firms. With additions such as document management, time tracking, and an invoicing module, RADAR has evolved into a central system for the modern accountant.”
Innovation in the Accounting Profession
John Reynders, Country Director of Visma Benelux: “RADAR was a strategic piece of the puzzle for us, enabling us to now support all core processes in an accounting firm with innovative cloud solutions. For accountants, the user experience will improve, including the convenience of single sign-on and smarter integrations with other Visma systems.”
Brigitte Buntinx continues: “At RADAR, there’s no shortage of ideas for improvement, and we’re continuing to innovate our products at full speed. This enhances efficiency in how the system is used. Think not only of integrations between systems, but also of alerts from industry-specific software packages to your CRM system, so that you, as an advisor, can take even more relevant actions.”
RADAR will remain a separate company
Reynders: “We are pleased that RADAR Software has chosen to become part of the Visma family. RADAR will remain a separate company, and there will be no management changes as a result of this acquisition. Visma will support the partnership as a network organization.”
Buntinx: “That’s how we see it, too. We want to make what we’ve already built even better and bigger. With Visma’s resources and expertise, we expect to make that a reality.”
