Likelihood to Recommend	Wolters Kluwer If you have a pro that uses the software then you should be fine. If you are using the software and need any support from THEIR customer support people or dedicated rep, be prepared to be frustrated! Horrible Customer Service but it is due to Wolters Kluwer not caring and purchasing various tax products but not having the ethics to make sure they are properly trained or overwhelmed JB Jason Bovell Partner Read full review	Pilot.com, Inc. Pilot.com is a well-established solution that clearly works very well for early-stage startups like us that don't have a dedicated finance team/hires, and want to save as much time as possible closing books each month and filing taxes.

Pros	Wolters Kluwer Customer Service Organization Knowledge Incentivized Justin Gipp Senior Accountant Read full review	Pilot.com, Inc. Quick responses to questions submitted to support Integration with various banking systems and software, including HR systems and cap table system, which saves time when filing taxes Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Wolters Kluwer Billing issues. Customer service. Deceptive information provided when placing order. Then turn around and said that’s not right. Ability to listen to customers. Sales rep doesn’t know what client ordered. Reps who don’t care. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Pilot.com, Inc. I would say that only room for improvement would be to offer more educational opportunities that explain what the numbers mean. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Wolters Kluwer Customer service is horrible for Axcess and getting bad for ATX. Wolters Kluwer has purchased these software products JB Jason Bovell Partner Read full review	Pilot.com, Inc. Pilot.com is reliable and trustworthy. You don't have to worry that your bookkeeper is going to retire (which has happened to us before) and that you'll need to start all over with someone new.
