Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review Centage is suited for all types of business. This is what makes this tool so great. It requires some expertise in setting it up and depending on how complex the business is, it may take longer than expected. It's a complex system and if you are not involved in the implementtion it might be hard to learn what is does.
Read full review Pros Accounting Seed is an affordable accounting solution It offers many features making it an ideal accounting solution for business The software integrates well with Salesforce The software comes with a friendly User Interface Read full review Planning personnel with all the related benefit expenses is very accurate and we are able to forecast increases as well. Storing separate versions of the budget allows us to finalize for the year and have access to the data while we update the default plan with any changes. I ilke the way you can add intelligence see the detail of calculations below th eline item. I like writing Planning Maestro reports to see drill downs of any item and tie them to our ERP Budget Read full review Cons 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. Read full review Head count is a bit strange as each period is considered one Headcount for a total of 12 per year, so we have to adjust when running reports would love to be able to attach related expenses in payroll to a kind of employee instead of doing each individually. It's time consuming. Have the help more available instead of having to log into separate place Read full review Usability 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
Read full review I've lived through the changes over the years, and I have found that most financially-minded professionals should have no problems using this system.
Read full review Support Rating 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!

Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review I used to use an older consolidating product call FRX or something like that, very manual where accounts were adding line the reporting lines one by one.... Centage is far superior, the ability to create custom Dimension hierarchies as improved our reporting 100 fold
Read full review Return on Investment Business users save time sending payments to suppliers and reimbursing employees since it is just by one click. The three-way POS match ensures that figures match on orders and invoices before paying suppliers. Capturing data on reports that are not submitted, approval times, and policy exceptions. Expense management and time tracking enable us to view the exact time taken to complete projects and the exact amount that should be paid. Read full review We were a very small company growing by acquisition so it worked well during these phases of our company growth. The return for our cost was tremendous especially in comparison to peers in the market. Analytics Maestro allowed us to grow without adding headcount by building efficient reports that can easily be mass-produced for all branches within our organization.
