- Connectwise PSA
- Kaseya autotask
- NetSuite
- QuickBooks
It was extremely simple to use Avalara with QuickBooks, although that was done only briefly. We set up Avalara with Connectwise PSA and that also was very simple; you must give your items an Avalara tax code, but that's a one-and-done and after that, it worked seamlessly. Avalara doesn't work at all with Kaseya autotask, and Kaseya is not helpful at all with their support. We tried using Avalara's extractor with NetSuite, and that has not performed accurately and has eaten up a lot of manhours. We are working on a full integration of Avalara and NetSuite, and hopefully that will work well.

- NetSuite
Fairly simple for the integrations, just have been having issues/difficulties with making changes. Seems like we have been having problems with Avalara overriding NetSuite permissions. Haven't been able to fully integrate Shopify with NetSuite due to issues with Avalara overriding sales tax calculations.
