FinQuery Marks Five-Year Dominance in Accounting Software Leadership

ATLANTA, GA – March 18, 2026 – FinQuery, a prominent player in accounting automation, has achieved a milestone few software companies ever reach: five consecutive years as the undisputed leader in its category. The company’s lease accounting solution, LeaseQuery, has secured the No. 1 position on G2’s highly respected Lease Accounting Software Grid for the 20th straight quarter, an achievement that underscores a fundamental shift in the finance industry toward AI-driven efficiency and automation.

This unbroken streak is more than just a testament to a single product; it reflects a deep-seated trust from over 40,000 users and signals the end of an era dominated by manual spreadsheets and cumbersome workarounds. For five years, across all market segments—from small businesses to global enterprises—FinQuery has consistently been rated highest by the professionals who use its software daily.

An Unprecedented Reign Built on User Trust

The foundation of FinQuery's long-standing leadership lies in the authentic, verified user reviews that power G2's quarterly reports. G2, a leading software marketplace, calculates its rankings using a sophisticated algorithm that weighs user satisfaction and market presence, making its Grid reports a trusted benchmark for technology buyers. For a company to remain at the top for 20 consecutive quarters is exceptionally rare and indicates a profound connection with its customer base.

In the latest report, FinQuery’s satisfaction scores created a significant gap with its rivals, boasting a 98% overall satisfaction score that was consistently 15 to 20 points higher than the nearest competitor. This user acclaim extends across multiple dimensions of the customer experience. An overwhelming 96% of users believe the platform is heading in the right direction, a strong vote of confidence in the company's strategic vision. Furthermore, FinQuery maintained a 94% rating for Quality of Support and a 95% rating for Ease of Doing Business, highlighting that the company's success is built not just on powerful technology but also on a robust, customer-centric support system staffed by accounting experts.

“Twenty consecutive quarters at #1 proves that the 'manual workaround' era is officially over. Accountants shouldn't be trapped in spreadsheets,” said Joe Schab, CEO of FinQuery, in a recent statement. “This five-year milestone isn't just a trophy for FinQuery. It’s a reflection of 40,000+ users trusting us to turn complex data into a fast, painless month-end close.”

Empowering Accountants by Giving Time Back

At the heart of FinQuery's value proposition is a simple yet powerful promise: giving finance professionals their time back. The platform is engineered to automate some of the most complex and time-consuming tasks in modern accounting, particularly compliance with intricate standards like ASC 842, IFRS 16, and GASB 87. By abstracting data from dense legal documents like leases and contracts, the software automates calculations, generates journal entries, and produces the precise disclosure reports required by auditors.

This automation has a transformative impact on the daily lives of accountants. Users consistently report faster month-end closes, streamlined audits, and a dramatic reduction in the risk of manual errors. Instead of spending weeks wrestling with spreadsheets to ensure compliance, finance teams can rely on an audit-ready system of record. This shift frees them from tedious, repetitive work and empowers them to focus on more strategic, high-value activities such as financial analysis, forecasting, and business partnering.

As CEO Joe Schab noted, “We’re giving accounting teams the one thing they can’t manufacture: time.” This philosophy resonates deeply in a profession often burdened by long hours and high-pressure deadlines, positioning technology not as a replacement for human expertise, but as an essential tool for elevating it.

The Strategic Evolution to an AI-Powered Future

While its dominance in lease accounting is well-established, FinQuery's ambition extends far beyond this initial niche. The company is leveraging its five-year success as a springboard for a broader strategic evolution: becoming a comprehensive, AI-enabled intelligent subledger for the entire Office of the CFO. This vision is backed by a majority investment from global growth equity firm TA Associates, which is fueling the company's international expansion and product development.

An intelligent subledger acts as a crucial bridge between raw, unstructured source documents—like invoices, contracts, and purchase orders—and a company's core Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. By using AI to read, interpret, and structure this data, FinQuery aims to create a complete, accurate, and auditable system of record for a company’s largest areas of spend.

“Our 20th straight G2 win is the foundation for something much bigger. We’ve taken the blueprint that made us the gold standard for lease accounting and applied it to the entire subledger,” explained Jacob Fabbri, FinQuery’s Chief Marketing Officer. “By using AI to bridge the gap between messy source documents and the ERP, we’re ensuring that 'audit-ready' isn't a goal – it’s the default state for modern accounting teams.”

This strategic pivot reflects a wider trend in enterprise software, where AI is no longer a futuristic concept but a practical tool for solving immediate business challenges. By automating accrual and prepaid accounting alongside its core lease compliance, FinQuery is building a platform designed to simplify complexity at scale and provide a single source of truth for critical financial data.

Maintaining Leadership in a Competitive Field

FinQuery's sustained success is particularly notable given the competitive nature of the accounting software market. While it has maintained the top overall position on the G2 Grid, other capable solutions are also vying for market share. For instance, competitors like NetLease have shown strong momentum in specific G2 indexes, occasionally topping the charts for metrics like “Time to Go Live” or “Relationship.”

This competitive pressure makes FinQuery's five-year run at the top even more significant. It demonstrates an ability to not only innovate but also to consistently deliver on customer expectations for support, usability, and reliability in a way that keeps it ahead of the pack. Its ability to lead across Enterprise, Mid-Market, and SMB segments showcases a unique versatility, offering a solution that scales without compromising quality. This broad appeal, combined with a clear vision for an AI-powered future, solidifies its position as a defining force in the ongoing transformation of the accounting profession.
