    Easy to use for payroll admin. Good support for help. especially during covid with all those federal and state sick leave laws. Better talking to other software such as a time and attendance one would be useful. Like having a dedicated rep for our company no matter what the issue is and the backup team for that one person. The reason we left ADP- the call center was that they closed tickets before they were fixed; even if I was on holiday, I did not answer within 48 hours, so they stopped working on the issue.

    You need a way to calculate VAT on your remote sales and store tax documents electronically. As part of your evaluation, I would include LOVAT as an option. With LOVAT, we can also avoid asking clients to provide additional information at check out, which keeps our conversion rate higher. It's so easy to upload tax data, calculate VAT, and submit VAT forms

    • Some processes take extra time
    • It will take some time and preferably a demo call with the support team to learn how to use the software yourself
    • Unfortunately, consultation on really difficult questions can be obtained only for an additional fee

    Some things are complicated to understand, such as the process around them or why things cannot be done. That said, support is always helpful and tries to think of solutions.

    The functionality is very powerful, and everything works as promised. But the interface needs improvement in places - sometimes you have to search for something longer than you would like.

    Cezanne HR
    The support is great. They are efficient and resolve issues relatively quickly. The support opening times support our HR opening times. What would make it better is a live chat function for support or the ability to phone. Sometimes explaining an issue and going back and forth over email takes longer than a quick phone call or live chat.

    It is never the same than in person, but the training was also the implementation so it made sense as it was broken up. It made it more cost effective.

    Better for smaller companies. Don't get too big, or you will lose your value. It's a niche market here and the more products you can use, the better; its payroll integrates with on boarding, talent acquisition, staffing, succession planning, and performance management. I don't like the idea of having four different Software companies for something one can do. No manager likes all these different platforms.

    Lovat is a product which is favorable in terms of cost, unlike the many tax software which are expensive and not affordable.Also, Lovat has some flexibility, where different procedures based on the companies demands can be personalized to suit its needs. Lastly, Lovat works in hand with the many programs that are in the accounting area.

    • Good functionality and regular update of the services.
    • This software is a good value for money especially taking into account a not very high price.
    • The support team is professional but available only at weekdays.
    • For the moment the support language is only English that may cause some inconvenience.
