Closer together: How ECIT NORIAN and Catacloud are shaping the future of accounting
ECIT NORIAN and Catacloud work closely together to give businesses and accountants a simpler, more modern tool for accounting, invoicing and payroll.
When accounting, technology and people come together the right way, everyday life gets easier – both for the accountant and for the business looking to grow. That’s exactly what this partnership between ECIT NORIAN and Catacloud is about.
ECIT NORIAN provides accounting, payroll and technology services to businesses across the Nordics and Europe, while Catacloud is the company behind one of the market’s most user-friendly accounting systems, currently available to customers in Norway, Denmark and Iceland. The partnership is built on close dialogue between ECIT NORIAN’s accountants and Catacloud’s development team. Insights from everyday accounting work feed directly into the ongoing development of the solution, ensuring the product is shaped by real, practical needs.
The partnership was formalized in 2022, when ECIT NORIAN and Catacloud entered a strategic partnership to make Catacloud available to ECIT NORIAN’s customers. Since then, the collaboration has evolved from a straightforward vendor relationship into a close professional and operational partnership, with many ECIT NORIAN customers now using Catacloud as their preferred system.
A close partnership with a shared direction
For customers, this close partnership means that ECIT NORIAN can offer Catacloud as an integrated part of its technology portfolio, with a short path between advisory support, implementation and ongoing development of the system.
“What makes this partnership so valuable is that we speak the same language. We know Catacloud inside out, which means we can offer our customers really close, comprehensive support,” says Ben Tveten, Head of SME at ECIT NORIAN.
“Having ECIT NORIAN as a partner means we develop Catacloud in close dialogue with some of Norway’s leading accounting teams. The experience they gain from working with customers every day gives us valuable insight that we carry straight into product development,” says Aysen Boyar, Head of Sales at Catacloud.

A system built for both accountants and clients
Catacloud was founded in 2017 with a simple goal: to make accounting easier to work with. Today the system is used by accounting firms and businesses across Norway, Denmark and Iceland, and is built around close collaboration with the very accounting teams who use it every day.
This is also where the partnership with ECIT NORIAN makes sense: ECIT NORIAN’s accounting and payroll advisors have in-depth knowledge of what actually works in practice. This knowledge feeds directly into Catacloud’s development, while ECIT NORIAN’s customers gain access to a system tailored to their exact workflow.
Proximity that drives faster development
Because Catacloud and ECIT NORIAN collaborate so closely, there’s a short path between customer feedback and further development of the product. Requests or needs that arise in day-to-day accounting work can quickly be fed into Catacloud’s development pipeline, without going through external channels or lengthy vendor processes.
This also gives customers peace of mind: they know the system they use is grounded in real needs from Norwegian businesses and accounting teams, not just developed at a distance.
”"We're being listened to. When we see a need among our customers, we have a direct line to the people actually building the system."
