FAQ
Common questions
Quick answers to help you evaluate whether Meridian Ledger is the right fit.
How quickly can we get started?
Most clients complete onboarding within two weeks. We begin with a discovery call, system access setup, and a tailored implementation timeline.
Do you work with companies outside the United States?
Yes. We support US-based companies with international subsidiaries and foreign entities operating in the US, coordinating with local partners when needed.
Can you migrate data from our current accounting software?
We migrate from QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and most major platforms. Historical data is validated before go-live to ensure continuity.
What size companies do you typically serve?
Our sweet spot is companies between $1M and $50M in annual revenue — from funded startups to established mid-market firms.
Is my financial data secure?
All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Access is role-based, logged, and reviewed quarterly. We never share client data with third parties.
