    it seems to be able to handle multiple locations well. It has a good vpn connection. It makes working at home easy. The problem is it is still run on a dos system. They are removing it slowly, but not all aspects of DDMSPLUS are easy. In my experience, it is hard to get any types of reporting out of that system. For us, AP and payroll are impossible.

    If you are a big company and have an active accountant then this system can be for you, it has many options but you need dedication. But the price starts from €39 and then you are not there...Most of the time you need other options to make it complete. Like ERP functions + €199~ want to book hours? +€129. And this is all per month... It goes up so fast that it's not interesting for small companies. When there are better options on the market that are even free...

    • Support... It's bad, and when you want to stop or step back it's near impossible.
    • Price, they tend to increase it without warning, and with all the extras it goes up fast.
    • If you wanna spend all your time in accounting buy Exact... It can be complex and many handlings needs to be done.

    There are a few people that are perfect ratings, but if you dont get one of them it is a little difficult to move forwards. [...], [...], [...], [...], [...]. If you talk to one of them your problems will be solved very quickly. The other support agents im not as familiar with but, in my opinion, some are good

    I would not select Exact Online, but I can direct you to better options. Due to the high price, getting behind the competition and support I would suggest options like Zoho Books for you bookings, or CyberStockroom as ERP. And here in the Netherlands e-boekhouden.nl is a real nice, cheap, and fast working booking platform for the smaller companies.

    • Things like contracts under the master account only instead of having to carry them through to all departments would be a plus!

    • Negative: High costs and implement time turned 1 client in to the negative, and after 2 years of use wants to stop.
    • Positive: Once an ERP connection is running you can automate a lot in the process.
