WEST NETWORK LLC Migrates from 1C to MASTER: Accounting

Company Overview

WEST NETWORK LLC is a Ukrainian company that chose to future-proof its accounting processes by transitioning from 1C to a fully Ukrainian-developed software solution — MASTER: Accounting.

Background and Motivation

In 2020, WEST NETWORK LLC made a strategic decision to replace its legacy 1C system. The key drivers behind the transition included:
– The need for a modern, fully Ukrainian-made solution
– Full compliance with Ukrainian legislation
– Rich functionality tailored to the local market

After reviewing available options, the company selected MASTER: Accounting as the most reliable and well-suited product for its business needs.

Implementation Process

The transition to MASTER: Accounting was fast and efficient. Most of the legacy data was imported using predefined templates, which simplified the migration process.

Thanks to the clear documentation and step-by-step video tutorials available on YouTube, the team was able to handle the setup with minimal support from consultants.

Functionality That Made a Difference

Compared to 1C, WEST NETWORK highlighted several key advantages of MASTER:
– Flexible configuration to match specific company needs
– All modules operate within a single interface, eliminating the need for external integrations
– Seamless module interaction and expansion of features as the business grows
– Unlimited analytical dimensions for more granular financial and management reporting

User Experience and Training

Employee adaptation to the new system was smooth and fast. The interface and workflow were intuitive enough that no additional training was required — a significant time-saver for the team.

Business Impact

The switch to MASTER allowed WEST NETWORK to unify:
– Operational accounting
– Financial and tax reporting
– Payroll and HR processes
– All within a single information environment.

This integration resulted in improved data visibility, faster processing, and enhanced efficiency across departments — especially in financial analysis and reporting.

Advice for Other Businesses

“Don’t hesitate — choose Ukrainian software!”

WEST NETWORK encourages other companies still using 1C to explore Ukrainian alternatives like MASTER, emphasizing that local solutions can offer not only compliance, but greater flexibility and control over business processes.

Conclusion

This case shows how a company can successfully move away from outdated systems toward more agile, locally relevant tools. MASTER: Accounting enabled WEST NETWORK LLC to increase operational efficiency, streamline reporting, and ensure long-term alignment with Ukrainian legal requirements — all with minimal disruption.
