Innovative start for taliance's UK office

Saturday, 05 November 2011

Taliance’s London team is delighted with the market’s reaction to the company’s pioneering asset and fund management software.

Since its launch in January this year, Taliance’s UK office has received an overwhelming response from the property industry in the UK and Ireland. Real estate, fund management and asset management companies have proved very receptive to the creative solutions offered by Taliance’s suite of software – FinAsset and Global Fund.

The lengths to which Taliance will go to ensure that disparate source data can be quickly and successfully integrated into its systems is proving particularly attractive to some companies. Taliance already has proven methods of connecting to the majority of property management accounting systems currently in use. But, some companies are looking for more bespoke solutions.

Many Taliance clients are concerned about the integrity of data flow, as Bruno Fiastre, operations director of Taliance Ltd explained: “There is always a risk when you export data from one system to another. Exported data can be corrupted before import and the physical mechanism used to transfer data – memory sticks, hard drives and so on – can become damaged. And, of course, the import can fail.”

“Worse still,” said Bruno, “there may be a conflict between the source fields and destination fields that may not be realised until much later, by which time the damage has been done. Even if the export and import procedure works, it will need to be repeated frequently so that both sets of data are current.”

Bruno’s team knew that to win clients’ confidence they would have to come up with innovative solutions that guaranteed data integrity.

“Together with Trace, one of our partnerswe have quickly developed what we’ve named SQLview,” said Bruno. “Essentially, this gives FinAsset a window into the source data. There is a direct connection – no data is exported or imported, the figures look exactly the same across both systems because they are the same.”

Clients using this approach  have been impressed with the intelligent and timely way in which the London team has overcome issues and this has been seen by the increase in FinAsset usage within the UK and Irish markets.
