Groupe Petra Manages Portfolio Growth with Yardi Voyager News provided by Share this article Quebecois property owner gains efficiency in reporting, invoice processing and more SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Commercial property owner Groupe Petra increases property management productivity by adopting Yardi Voyager® Commercial as its real estate technology platform. "We needed to automate business processes as our portfolio grew significantly. Using 50 spreadsheet tabs to perform accounting for 50 buildings was too time-consuming, for example," said Olivier Rocheleau, corporate controller for Groupe Petra. "Voyager cut the time previously needed to execute month-end procedures in half for some activities and at the same time we were able to establish robust automated governance with the help of the software."
