Controllers Council Seal of Approval – Program Announced

Chicago, IL—January 19, 2022—The Controllers Council Seal of Approval™ program utilizes a community of more 90,000 Controllers, CFOs and other corporate finance professionals to validate and rate services, solutions and products used in accounting, finance and organization-wide. 

For Controllers Council members and subscribers, the Seal of Approval helps Controllers and CFOs identify and evaluate brands that have been vetted and rated for performance by corporate finance peers. Executives can visit the Controllers Council Seal of Approval website page to view Seal of Approval brands by category, and drill-down for more information.

The program includes an application process, a screening algorithm, along with confidential and anonymous surveys of community end users and subject matter experts to identify and rate brands on specific variables. Brands that achieve the highest rating thresholds are granted the rights to license the Seal of Approval badge for a period of twelve months.

“The Controllers Council Seal of Approval program leverages the power and authenticity of subject matter experts and peers in our growing community, while analysts and review sites are often paid for and inherently biased”, states Neil Brown, Controllers Council Executive Director. “The Seal of Approval is a win-win for members, subscribers, and brands that achieve the highest ratings.”

The Controllers Council conducts surveys for specific categories year-round. Brands that serve corporate finance can apply for consideration on the Seal of Approval Application page.
