Case Studies

Solomon IV Keeps Pace with Aggressive Plans for Growth at Rare Medium

Rare Medium Group Inc. enables and builds next generation online businesses, taking equity stakes in companies that benefit from its award-winning Internet Solutions services. Based in New York City, the firm has made venture and incubator investments in several innovative new businesses, and its distinguished Internet Solutions client list includes Microsoft, Pfizer, Epson, Compaq, Intel, The New York Times, and Yahoo!

A year ago, Rare Medium was a small company with only fifty employees, running a low-end Windows-based accounting system. Since then, the company has added 200 employees, and acquired several subsidiary companies. With the company's dramatic growth in mind, Rare Medium management recognized the need for an accounting system that would be capable of handling additional locations and companies.

Rare Medium turned to the Solomon IV mid-market accounting system from Microsoft Certified Solution Provider Solomon Software, Inc. for its unmatched flexibility. Running on Microsoft BackOffice technologies, Solomon IV facilitates rapid growth by making it easy to rework reporting relationships and reorganize profit centers. Powerful multi-company features make it possible to give subsidiaries operating flexibility while maintaining tight controls.

Since implementing their Solomon IV accounting system, Rare Medium has acquired ten companies and opened six new locations. Even with the company's rapid expansion, the BackOffice-based Solomon IV system has adapted to these changes without requiring any major modifications. The firm is able to accurately track the performance of individual offices and can quickly shift its business structure to adjust to changes in the business climate.
