Software "Plato" from All Consulting is taken over by Abacus
The software company Abacus Research AG is tapping into the market of law firms and consulting companies. The company acquires the software "Plato" from All Consulting AG as of February 10, 2023 and thus expands the functional scope of the Abacus software in the area of project management.
Many Swiss lawyers, trustees and service providers now record their project-specific services with "Plato", a software solution from All Consulting. Thanks to dynamic interfaces, it enables seamless integration with ERP software solutions and other systems. According to the company, the focus is on the digital customer dossier. Abacus Research AG is now taking over this industry solution developed and marketed by All Consulting, including the associated customer base. This is made up of lawyers, trustees and other service providers. This means that Abacus will gain around 600 additional customers directly and at the same time expand its industry portfolio, according to a media release. "With the acquisition of "Plato" and its integration into the Abacus software, we are bringing a software solution to the market that is optimally tailored to the customer needs of lawyers, trustees and other service providers. The software will optimally combine the strengths of both providers. This includes comprehensive and long-standing industry know-how as well as integrated, end-to-end processes," said Christian Huber, CFO and designated Co-CEO of Abacus Research AG. "We are looking forward to the intensive cooperation with the All Consulting team," Huber continues.
With the takeover of "Plato" by Abacus, existing "Plato" users will receive significant added value and, at the same time, a guarantee of continuity: "Plato" will be fully integrated into the Abacus software and will thus benefit from over 35 years of experience in the field of software development. The contact persons and the maintenance contracts remain unchanged. Marcel Rüegg, Partner and Head of Software Solutions at All Consulting: "With Abacus Research AG, we have found a partner who has established itself in the market with a proven solution, is constantly investing in the future with innovations, and shares the same values. We look forward to continuing to serve our existing customers personally and, in new ways, together with the Abacus team."
The software will now be known as "AbaPlato". All Consulting has been a Gold Partner of Abacus for 35 years and implements their comprehensive, modular ERP solution for SMEs.
