Taboola achieves ASC 842 compliance efficiently and accurately with Trullion, saving 36 workdays per year

The problem

Taboola's finance team managed lease reporting entirely in Excel — a process described by the VP Finance as a 'nightmare' of endless spreadsheets, back-and-forth number reviews, and high error risk that became critical once the company decided to pursue an IPO and needed to comply with ASC 842.
