Accounts Receivable
Comparison of Accounts Receivable features of Accounting Seed and Anchor
I wouldn’t recommend Accounting Seed to enterprise companies. However, Accounting Seed is the best cloud accounting tool for small and medium-sized companies that are yearning to automate accounts payable and receivable, inventory management, and invoice customization in one integrated platform.

Anchor is well suited for solopreneurs and small businesses that may want to use the app in conjunction with their accounting software (QuickBooks and Xero). When used in tandem with their accounting software, billing and reporting issues can be resolved. For those solopreneurs and small businesses that do not use the listed accounting apps, in my opinion, Anchor may not be a good fit.

Custom reporting seems cumbersome, but it could just be that we need better instructions, more examples, maybe some more canned reports. My company needs the ability to compare multiple years, and more than one budget in a report - we start with an approved board budget and then we reproject each quarter.
Non profits need to print financials by restriction level - this has also been very awkward - all the data is there but I have to piece it together in an excel spreadsheet every time I want it.
In general, the materials needed for non profits is not as accessible as it could be.
It always works well. We've never had programming issues. Never. It is easy to customize. The system can grow with you as your business grows and changes. Being cloud-based you can work from anywhere. It is intuitive. You have all the features of Salesforce, like workflows, that work perfectly in Accounting Seed. Having that full integration with Salesforce allows you to see all our data in one platform

From the start of the relationship with Anchor, they are there to assist. I really like the fact that in the setup process, the app does a review of our website to get a feel of the types of services our business offers. As of the writing of this review Anchor has recently launched a mobile app, which should be an exciting addition. Still testing the app now.

We seldom have had to use their support but when we have, they have been responsive and actually were able to answer our questions in a simple, nontech language. You don't have to be a programmer to talk to them!

Honestly, Accounting Seed was the only one I focused on when looking to switch from our existing program. It showed in the partner app store and stated it was created native to SalesForce. As I read through it's capabilities, cost, etc., I knew it was the right choice.
