Esker processes the paperwork. Modern moves the cash.
Days to go live, not 6-18 months
A full Esker O2C rollout calls for a dedicated project team, significant change management and a buildout that spans months. Modern links your ERP and CRM and has first collections running within days.
Designed for relationships, not paperwork
Esker is designed for document processing: capture, matching and routing. Getting paid comes down to relationships: missing W9s, PO mismatches, an approver out of office. Modern works through each one and acts.
No AR department needed
Esker is built to coordinate large AR teams. Modern is built to take the manual work off the table. It runs without a dedicated team.
Live in days. DSO moving by day 90.
How the switch plays out
Week 1
ERP and CRM linked. Invoices imported, Salesforce or HubSpot in sync, AR aging mapped. None of it lands on your team.
Day 7–30
First collections live and a DSO baseline in place. AP portals lined up for automation, plus a live view of every open balance.
Day 60
Portal submissions automated and aging trending down. Dispute playbooks tuned, and DSO shows its first measurable drop.
Day 90
DSO gains confirmed and manual work off your team's plate. Most teams have already earned back more than the yearly cost.
