They’re on a mission to become the central hub for managing every aspect of business life.But when it comes to financial workflows, there’s still a gap. Too many critical tasks like managing cash flow, tracking payments, or reconciling accounts happen outside the software, across spreadsheets, email threads, banking portals.It’s a missed opportunity. Business software shouldn’t just record financial activity — it should run it.To learn more about us: ; .Statement of WorkTeam Management:
