The integrations with Microsoft OneDrive and Egnyte are designed to let FloQast users access financial data residing in Excel workbooks housed within these cloud storage applications. Within these integrated channels, FloQast accesses customer financial data from Excel-based account reconciliations to ensure all accounts are automatically tied-out against the general ledger system.

The Okta and Google SSO integrations are hoped to bolster security by supporting password complexity and multi-factor authentication. The idea is that within these ecosystems, FloQast close management software can only be accessed by authorized users.

FloQast already integrates with Box, and Google Drive.
