Guest Article: Finance with ITISeasy.business UE – Full-featured, Sophisticated and Adaptable

The subject of finance often divides opinion: Some consider it a science, while others simply an indispensable requirement for managing a company. While for some entrepreneurs “management by account balance” quickly exhausts the possibilities of strategic business, for others the constant overview of cash flow, EBIT and cost accounting is simply indispensable.

Asked about it, many say: This is the domain of well-known, expensive programs.

A new EGroupware version is available in the Univention App Center, and it offers some cool new features.
