Ecologic's Value Through the Eyes of our Clients
CGI Group Inc.
“As a global company, CGI delivers mission-critical information technology and business process services to governments and industries everyday. Since 2000, we have relied on Ecologic Leasing Services to ensure that our leasing programs deliver the financial and strategic benefits we expect. Ecologic has consistently provided us with expert management of our lease portfolio, strong controls, as well as reporting and advice that my team benefits from. I would recommend the Ecologic team to other CFOs looking for a combination of cost reduction and best practices around leasing processes.”

NetApp Inc.
“After deciding that equipment leasing was in NetApp's best interest, over the last two years, we have grown our leasing portfolio by over 350% in dollar volume and 700% in the number of lease schedules. We currently have approximately $67 million (cost) of assets managed representing over 200 schedules. Without a Company such as Ecologic to manage and control the procure-to-pay process, and provide independent analysis and advice, we simply would not be doing leasing today and could not have managed this tremendous growth. We have been told by our lessors that we exemplify best practices compared to their other large lessees in terms of our responsiveness, process and controls.”
