Certinia on Salesforce: streamline your projects and finance

When project administration, invoicing, and time tracking run separately, it inevitably leads to duplicate entries and a lack of visibility. With Certinia, you integrate all processes into one system. This saves time, reduces errors, and gives you control over real-time figures and growth.

Certinia (formerly FinancialForce) is a complete ERP solution on Salesforce that unifies project management, time tracking, billing, and financial reporting in a single platform. Instead of working with disconnected systems or manual integrations, you operate centrally in Salesforce. This way, you automate the entire process from sale to payment and eliminate data silos.

“We now process more than twice as many projects and invoices as before, with hardly any expansion of the finance team. And because everything comes together in one system, we have real-time insight into our figures.”
— Matthijs Hoenen, Finance Director at IG&H

Why choose Certinia?
Certinia is built on Salesforce and integrates project management, time tracking, billing, and financial reporting in one environment.

Certinia in practice: Case studies

IG&H accelerates acquisition integration with Certinia

  • hexa-shape PSA – supports the full project cycle, from planning and time tracking to resource management and invoicing. Clients can easily approve hours via an Experience Cloud portal, after which they are automatically processed in Financial Management Cloud.
  • hexa-shape Billing Central – registers contracts, automates revenue forecasts, and enables bulk invoicing. Changes such as renewals or indexations are applied and processed instantly.
  • hexa-shape Revenue Management – recognizes revenue from PSA and Billing Central in multiple currencies. The system processes intercompany transfers and automatically posts to the general ledger.
  • hexa-shape Financial Management Cloud – manages all financial processes across multiple countries and currencies. Integration with ECB exchange rates ensures accurate reporting and real-time insights.
  • hexa-shape Agentforce (Salesforce) – an AI solution that automates routine PSA tasks and reduces administrative workload. This frees up more time for customer value and business growth.

IG&H doubled its workforce in a short period of time. From 300 to over 600 employees. Mainly through acquisitions in the Netherlands and abroad.
“The growing pains are real,” says Mathijs Hoenen, Finance Director. “You want to stay agile as an organization, but you don’t want to reinvent the wheel with every acquisition.”

Since 2019, IG&H has been using Salesforce and Certinia, working closely with CBEE Remarkable.
“Where we used to spend days on preparation, we now complete integrations in just a few weeks or even days,” Mathijs explains.

The result:
“We now process more than twice as many projects and invoices as before, with hardly any expansion of the finance team. And because everything comes together in one system, we have real-time insight into our figures.”

Looking ahead:
“Thanks to the foundation we have built together, we are not only continuing to grow, but we are truly able to seize new opportunities as an organization.”
