Avalara Is Great At Calcuation And Filing Gets A Bit Iffy Outside Of That

Avalara is great at calculating taxes and filing state registrations. It is easy to turn on new state tax calculation and fairly easy to set up new state filings. It is not so great at setting up new state registrations, and it has no coordination between its own state registration setup and setting up the state filing. Avalara integrates well with some platforms, and not very well with others.

The overall usability has been good, but we just have some problems/issues with the integration, especially with NetSuite. I believe that this should be a simple fix but having difficulty with getting our problems/issues addressed. I do like the Avalara homepage and it being easy to navigate to different pages when needed.

With having customers all over the United States, it is a seamless task creating invoices that include sales tax that varies from state to state. Avalara gives you peace of mind that your calculations are accurate. The fact that Avalara integrates with so many accounting software services is a big advantage to any accounting department for any business.
