I have never had to contact Abacus support and have not heard stories from any of my colleagues having to do so either. Our accounting department stresses the ease of Abacus and has not voiced any concerns with the software or the product support team or the product support process.

While I have never had to contact Abacus directly, I have had to reach out to those who are over this product at my company and I have never had any problems with it! The only times I have had to ask for assistance was to set up my account initially and change my email associated with it. Both times were quick and seamless.

I never even needed support... It was very easy to use and I never needed it explained to be for that reason, or had any issues. When bugs did happen, generally I just closed out the app, restarted it, and it worked just fine after that. Never needed to escalate beyond that.
