Why CreditDevice?
In the credit reports you find a clear explanation of the financial data. Before we started working with CreditDevice, we had to write our own explanations. It is so handy that we do no longer have to do this! Such a solution from CreditDevice is fantastic: we can immediately send the reports to our colleagues. As the information is understandable for everybody. We do not have to add anything and get fewer questions.
“In addition to improving the internal processes, a good customer acceptance process ensures that the DSO drops and the cash flow also improves. At SUEZ we are very satisfied with the results since the new customer acceptance procedure: a decrease in the number of depreciations by more than 70%. This is a big profit because it does not only mean that we have less depreciation, but we can also spend our time much more efficiently. ”
“Since collaborating with CreditDevice, Sligro has undergone an important change when it comes to the approach and perception of credit management. When we still had a classic approach, the focus was purely on debtor risk. Can we do business or not? Now that we have a more proactive approach, we are thinking more in terms of possibilities. So no longer just "it is not possible to do business", but "under what conditions can we do business". "
