Carl Goodin, President of Financial Planning Associates, Inc., another recently transitioned advisory firm, highlighted the best-in-class CRM, portfolio accounting, reporting, and billing tools, as well as the seamless integrations with Direct Advisory Suite, RightCapital, and DPL Financial Partners.
The transition offers firms full historical data conversion from Morningstar Office to Black Diamond on day one, at no cost.
