Servus Credit Union is a member-owned, community-based financial institution based in Edmonton, Alberta. In 2015, Servus became the second-largest credit union in Canada and the largest credit union in Alberta.
Avanti helped Servus scale its business with tools that increased its Payroll team’s efficiency by 40%.
Goals
Find the right solution for a growing organization
When Servus Credit Union merged with two large credit unions in Alberta in 2015, their needs changed. Suddenly, their payroll had to serve three times as many employees in offices across the province. Going through a formal RFP process, Servus wanted a solution that could scale with their growing organization.
Improved payroll functionality
With a bigger employee count, efficiency became a top priority. Servus needed tools that could help reduce redundancies and keep payroll running smoothly.
Easy reporting
With more stakeholders in the organization, it was imperative to have the right reporting tools for the job. Servus needed a clearer and faster path to their own essential data.
The Solution
Powerful and easy-to-use payroll software
By moving forward with Avanti, Servus merged three companies into one with an easy-to-use, unified configurable system. As an essential tool for the Servus team, everything from year-end tax slip processing to creating payroll test environments is much more efficient with Avanti’s payroll software.
Increased efficiency
When compared with other systems, Servus Payroll Supervisor, Carolyn Lesyhen said that Avanti made her 40% more efficient in her role. “I’ve used a lot of Canadian Payroll systems. By far, Avanti has the best features and the most flexibility.”
Report Designer
With Avanti, Servus payroll reporting is much easier and faster. So easy, that the Payroll team is helping other departments pull their own reports.
