What this page is, and is not
- It is a count of how often AI assistants named EY when asked buyer questions about fractional CFO and outsourced accounting firms and NetSuite and ERP implementation partners. Nothing here is a review, a rating, or an assessment of the firm’s work.
- EY did not submit this listing, was not contacted about it, and cannot pay to change it, move up, or be removed.
- A firm named in few responses may still be excellent. Share follows what has been published about a firm online, which is what an AI assistant reads.
- Wrong details, or a firm merged with another of a similar name? We fix those.
