Testimonial by a Partner in a Big 4 Accounting Firm:
Our firm helps companies across the globe to identify and capitalize on business opportunities. We are a global leader in assurance, tax, transactions and advisory services. Our offices provide consulting services to different verticals in the Israeli industry and we work with many technology companies.
I've worked with Nextage and Ofer Katz since 2006, across many channels. Our clients hire companies like Nextage to run their bookkeeping and CFO services. This means my firm works with many companies like Nextage on a day to day basis. They help our clients to be ready for our reviews and to recognize the issues for which they need consulting.
Our clients come from all corners of the business world, they aim to develop their companies but they don't always know what kind of effect each one of their activities has, whether performed in Israel or anywhere globally. They require someone with a vast financial background to help them recognize and meet various issues. This is what Nextage does. Our paths as firms converge in many places. Ofer Katz, as an outsourced CFO, takes on the roll of financial management. This means that Ofer is my client's long arm. To me, he represents the client and wears different hats all the time, depending on the client's needs. This defines our work relations.
When you have a market as big as ours, you work with a lot of accounting firms and you get to experience different types of service providers. I enjoy working with Ofer. I honestly and truly believe that he delivers a service which is very different than all the other service providers in his industry.
Ofer knows how to recognize all the small critical issues before they escalate and surprise me or the client. This gives the client a very big advantage. Most alternative service providers in the market deliver a solution which is much more commoditized. Every company offers bookkeeping, budget management, CFO and other such services. These are very important solutions and all businesses need them. But the real difference is that other accounting firms do not perceive themselves as partners of the client.
This is what differentiates Nextage from other firms: When Ofer is the CFO of the client he acts as a partner, other accounting firms are just service providers of the client. When does this come to the test? In the client's money-time, of course.
For example, during fund-raising the client needs to close many loops, there's due diligence and everyone gathers in. Let's say it this way, in those critical times, Ofer certainly has a voice. In discussions, the client doesn't need to open his mouth, he sees that the outsourcing he did works terrific. Other service providers are usually not present when they are needed.
It's the depth of commitment and the client sees it. This is why when a new client asks me about companies that give financial services, though I never give just one referral, I do emphasize the difference Nextage delivers as a service provider. I recommend Nextage to my clients because I believe they bring the best value to any company. When their teams set to work on a client's case they leave no open ends. They act as part of each firm they serve and take care to bring into awareness all vital issues in advance.
