Why Choose CloseCore?
If you're wondering why you're paying so much for close management software, you're not alone.
Fair, transparent pricing
FloQast sales reps will pitch their "quick implementation" and "fast ROI" to you, but then they'll also try to charge you a five-figure implementation fee. You can't have it both ways. CloseCore does not charge implementation fees and does not automatically raise prices 10% every year.
Live within a week
The close management platform typically goes live within a week and can be deployed in a day. Afterwards, AI automation rolls out in phases. CloseCore is compatible with the same folder structure and #fq- tags as FloQast, and we can import your historical data from FloQast.
Visibility helps, but automation is what counts
Once you've gained visibility and identified the risks and delays, you need to fix them. CloseCore offers a full suite of automation modules integrated directly into the close platform to help you shorten the close.

The close management platform typically goes live within a week and can be deployed in as little as a day.
Enterprise deployments usually happen in phases, starting with the close management platform. AI automation follows, with workflow discovery, agent building, deployment, and ongoing monitoring and improvements. This process can take around three months, depending on the workflows and scope.
If you're coming from FloQast, we can sync with your existing folder structure and import your historical data from FloQast, to ensure a seamless transition that preserves your previous sign-offs and allows you to keep using your existing folder structure.
It doesn't make sense to us that other close management tools are so expensive, and all of the teams who have switched from FloQast to CloseCore agree.
Old close management software tools like FloQast are project management tools and don't actually do the accounting work for you, yet they cost 5-10x more than project management tools like Asana and Jira.
We are resetting a broken market so that close management software is accessible to all teams.
Yes. CloseCore is designed to work with all ERP systems and has direct integrations with most common ERP systems.
In general, we can directly integrate with all cloud-based ERP systems. If you don't see your ERP listed as a direct integration, please contact us. We can build new integrations in as little as two days.
Furthermore, if there is no direct ERP integration, you can export a trial balance from your ERP, and CloseCore can read the trial balance export to sync in your chart of accounts and trial balance.
Usually. If your self-hosted ERP has a developer API, then CloseCore should be able to build a direct integration.
In addition, CloseCore can provide a secure agent that you install on your server to enable communication between your ERP and CloseCore, ensuring your data remains secure and up-to-date. There is custom development work involved with this process, and if you are interested in learning more, please contact us.
Lastly, even if a direct integration is infeasible, you can always upload a trial balance to CloseCore and use the platform in the same way as a direct integration.
