Paperchase Products, a retailer of design led and innovative stationery in the UK, has purchased the latest version of Coda’s Dream accounting software.

Dream is a best of class accounting package that is designed to deliver flexible and scaleable user-defined accounting for growing businesses that principally operate in the UK or other English-speaking locations around the world.

“Having worked with Dream at a previous organisation, I was aware of the functionality available from the product,” said Kevin Heath, head of UK finance at Paperchase. “Paperchase was looking for a system that is flexible, intuitive and easy to use, as well as giving excellent visibility over the database. Dream, through its fully integrated ledger system, meets these requirements and also contains some well thought out extra functionality.

“I believe this product will give us a stable base to work from, create efficiencies across the department, allow us to easily interrogate the data and hence drive an informed approach to decision making. Our financial information will be more available and more useful, to the right people across the organisation.”

The software uses the latest Microsoft SQL Server and .NET technology, which provides a robust technology platform and additional functionality for users.

Paperchase has also purchased licenses for Coda’s DreamView tool, which builds upon and extends Dream’s in-built browsing and reporting functionality, by providing direct, seamless access to external reporting products. This will enable the company to interrogate data and prepare custom reports.
