"The great thing about Ercolini is that they are intimately involved in our account. They are able to resolve issues quickly because they understand how our business works. Our partner and manager understand the roles and responsibilities of our operations, compliance, human resources and development departments. Ercolini team members work directly with appropriate client personnel to solve issues. Ercolini gets it done."

"What we’ve gotten from our relationship with the firm is nothing short of spectacular. We couldn’t be more pleased. Through their guidance on tax structuring, it’s fair to say that Ercolini & Company LLP has saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars [since 1998]. They have been the perfect complement to us. They have tremendous experience in tax accounting for partnerships – and they’re highly innovative at identifying ways that can maximize after-tax benefits for business owners. We’re important to them as clients; they pay a lot of attention to us. Quite simply, Ercolini & Company LLP takes great care of us."

"Simply stated, the quality of the firm’s work is beyond reproach. Although we’ve worked with Ercolini & Company LLP for years, I’m required by investors to work with other accounting firms as well. The bottom line? I assess their performance by holding them up to the Ercolini & Company "standard." In a heavily regulated industry like ours, you have to really know your stuff when it comes to audit and tax-compliance issues. And that brings up what I consider to be the firm’s greatest asset. They’re my sounding board; I rely implicitly on the partners’ advice and counsel. And that’s just it: I have the attention of the most senior people. I pick up the phone and get right through to people who understand my unique situation and deals. It’s very reassuring."

"The process of working with Ercolini & Company LLP has gone very well. They’re very knowledgeable about the industry – and our company in particular. One reason for that is they have a great continuity of staff; we don’t have to constantly re-explain the specifics of our business and properties because the faces stay the same from year to year. They fully understand the issues. And given their meticulous attention to detail, I have a real level of comfort about the accuracy and thoroughness of their work."

Higher Education

"Ercolini was the college's auditing firm when I arrived here as president, but we have since chosen to stay with them, and it was an easy decision. They are outstanding in their service and professionalism. They are responsive and knowledgeable about regulatory and statutory requirements for higher education. And they have great honesty and integrity. We need our auditor to be utterly truthful with us and keep us on the right track, and we can absolutely depend on Ercolini to fulfill that responsibility."

Robert Antonucci
President
Fitchburg State College

"All of our independent audit services are handled by Ercolini, including financial statements of college operations and financial aid. The deadlines for these audits are critical, and not being able to meet them reflects poorly on operations. And the deadlines seem to get tighter every year. Thanks to Ercolini, we always submit on time. We couldn't be more pleased, which is why we've continued our relationship with them for a number of years."

Non-Profit

"Ercolini has helped with taxes and accounting at the charitable foundation for about 5 years, and I have worked with them in other capacities for nearly 20 years. I can say without hesitation that they are not only technically proficient and highly competent, they are practical problem-solvers extraordinaire. With their help, we have been able to maximize our cash flow to help us accomplish our goals. They are timely, creative, and they take our interests to heart. They are a true partner in our mission."

"Our law firm often needs to recommend an accountant for our clients and we consistently recommend Ercolini. They are creative, practical, and have very high standards. I see how they work with clients, and I can tell you that the clients are very happy and depend on Ercolini, and they are never disappointed."

Retail

“We are a small company that does not have an HR or Accounting department so when a question arises Ercolini is a phone call away. We rely on them to answer questions and assist us through processes all the time. They not only help with our accounting and taxes, but even supported and guided us through a major switch in accounting programs and the creation of a database to better manager our sales and labor. They are always looking out for our best interest and often times get more involved in something that they are required to in order to make sure we have all the tools to be successful. To be honest, Ercolini goes above and beyond.”

Succession Planning

"In preparing for retirement, I was faced with numerous issues concerning the succession of my business operation to family members. Ercolini & Company LLP became very involved in the complexities of the process and got to know us on a personal level. It was really the only way to fully understand all the nuances and subtleties of the situation. With larger firms, you’re just another client. But not with Ercolini & Company LLP."

Hospitality

"We’ve been working with Ercolini & Company LLP since the 1980s – and we’ve always been very pleased. What sets them apart is their unrelenting focus on accuracy, their attention to client needs, their invaluable insight on minimizing our tax exposure and their creative advice that makes such good business sense. To me, the firm’s about professionalism, quality of service and staff, knowledge and depth of skill. One of the best things is you can go to any partner and get answers in a personal way. That goes a long way. Undeniably, we think we get as good – or better – service than we would traditionally get from some of the bigger firms … at a lot less cost."

Technology/Software Development

"Our experience with Ercolini & Company LLP has worked flawlessly. The ways in which they help us go way beyond accounting. We rely on their opinions concerning business matters in general. Like advising us on the best ways to make optimal investments for the company’s future. I’ve found my contacts there to be highly accessible; they’re very easy to work with … We also have a great line of communication with them – something we lacked with other firms. But above all, I’d say trust is the biggest thing. We rely on them to come through – and they always do."
