Woodbridge, NJ – January 20, 2022 Visual Lease, the #1 lease optimization software provider, today announced results from 2021, reporting an increase of nearly 30% in customer count and annual recurring revenue year-over-year, making it the fourth consecutive year that the company has experienced double-digit growth. Visual Lease now assists nearly 1,000 organizations with lease accounting compliance and the financial, legal and operational performance of their leased assets.

  • Introduced a GASB RFP Template, a free, comprehensive RFP template to assist organizations in the evaluation of lease accounting technology providers.
