    About us

    Built by people who truly know finance

    Smartbooks was founded by a team with decades of experience in EPM, controlling and SaaS. No faceless tool. You work with people who know the craft and have built proven products for groups like Akzo Nobel, Philips, KPN and KLM.

    The problem

    Finance still runs on Excel and manual work

    It works, until it doesn't. These challenges slow your team down and block further professionalization.

    Fragmented Excel models

    Consolidation across multiple entities relies on complex, organically grown spreadsheets that no one else understands.

    Hours lost to manual work

    Month-end close, data collection, verification, and correction, while you'd rather spend time on analysis and advice.

    Errors discovered too late

    Manual entry and links between files lead to errors that only surface during board presentations.

    Knowledge lives in people's heads

    If one person is unavailable, the process stalls. The complexity is fragile and non-transferable.

    How it works

    Live in days, value from day one.

    Forget multi-month implementations. You're technically up and running within two days. From there, we work alongside your team, onboarding, refining the setup, and identifying where the biggest time savings lie in your close, reporting, and day-to-day workflows.

    Free trial month

    Try Smartbooks free for a month, full implementation included.

    During your free trial month we fully configure Smartbooks on your bookkeeping, structure and reports. You don't just see a demo, you work in your own live environment from day one. No separate implementation project, no surprises later.

    Day 1–2

    Connection and setup

    Your bookkeeping is live in Smartbooks. Reporting, consolidation and planning structures are configured to your general ledger. We do the work, you see your own numbers in the system right away.

    Week 1–2

    Training

    Together with your team we go through the core workflows: close, consolidation, reporting. Everyone learns what's relevant for their role. No generic manual, training on your setup.

    Week 2 and beyond

    Fine-tuning

    Smartbooks works, your team works with it. Now we fine-tune together: sharpen standard reports, add extra dimensions, align checklists. Your rhythm sets the pace.

    Start a free trial month

    No commitments, no costs. Not satisfied? No invoice.

    We align the exact timeline with your availability. Some clients prefer intensive training in one week, others spread it across a month.

    "Don't turn the implementation into a big project, because it goes really fast. During the free trial month the entire setup is already complete and everything is ready to use."

    "In my 30+ years of experience I've worked with many tools, but Smartbooks is by far the easiest and fastest to implement."
