Datafile Software Solutions

Integrated accounting and business management software, built around the way each organisation works.

What Datafile does

Software that fits the business, not the other way round.

Datafile is a business software company providing integrated accounting and business management software to organisations throughout the UK. Its modular suite is fully customisable to each business, built around the way an organisation works, rather than the limits of an off-the-shelf package.

This is particularly appealing to businesses that want to automate workflows with enhanced visibility, better access to customer data and a clearer picture of their company's financial health.

Beyond the core modules, Datafile implements sector-specific solutions shaped around the requirements of particular industries, refining the software to match the workflows, terminology and pressures each sector brings.

Operating history

Four decades of continuous trading.

Datafile has been operating since 1985, serving organisations throughout the UK with four decades of continuous trading and product development behind it.

Vicen acquired Datafile in October 2022, when the directions were looking to sell the business to facilitate their retirement plans. Datafile had a sticky customer base due to their flexible solutions with high recurring revenue, a long runway for growth, and offered an attractive payback period.

Post-acquisition, Vicen has offered operational support while allowing Datafile to continue operating as its own entity.
