What Fid Manager does

Fid Manager (legal entity: FID-Manager SRL/BV) is a privately held Belgian SaaS company founded in 2010 in Waterloo by Jean-Luc Oosters and Hugues Theyskens, originally developed in response to accounting firm TFRS's request for a better practice management tool. The company sells a web-based, all-in-one ERP/practice management platform targeted exclusively at fiduciaires (accounting firms) in Belgium and Luxembourg, with 2,000+ Belgian customers and 50+ Luxembourgish users as of the most recent data.

The core FID-Manager platform integrates nine functional modules: AML compliance (KYC/KYB/KYT with suspicious transaction detection), legal deadline tracking with VAT acknowledgment validation, timesheet and invoicing, permanent client dossier management, a customizable client portal, profitability analysis, HR management, and eIDAS-compliant electronic signatures, plus Luxembourg-specific features and a native integration layer to 9 third-party platforms (TwinnTax, BCE, Bizzcontrol, WinAuditor, 3CX, Silverfin, BotHive, Comax, Instaclause). The product is browser-delivered (no installation), GDPR and eIDAS compliant, and supplemented by ITAA Category A-accredited training (FID-Academy) and self-service documentation (Documentation 360).

The business model is per-seat SaaS subscription at €92/month per user with all features included, unlimited dossiers, and free implementation/migration; complementary revenue comes from FID-Academy training. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales (demo-led), self-service free trial, and integration partner referrals. The company is bootstrap/founder-financed, has approximately 12 employees, and is consistently recognized as Belgium's leading fiduciaire management software (Forum For the Future 2018, 2019, 2022).
