Loved simplified taxes filing

Rating: 8 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I register and report VAT and sales tax. LOVAT truly simplified the submission of documents. As an entrepreneur, I prefer to spend time working rather than deal with documentation and business laws. Works simply and reliably.

Pros

  • Software is cloud-based. That is so cool. Can enter account whenever I need, like, I'm not stuck on the desktop. Interface is user-friendly
  • I have workers from different countries and nations, and they say that the Chinese version of the website could be better

Cons

  • I have workers from different countries and nations, and they say that the Chinese version of the website could be better

Some amazing product here

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use LOVAT to automatically file VAT tax returns. We have an online store, we sell to different countries, so without automation it would be a lot of paperwork. LOVAT takes care of the calculations, reminders, and the filing itself — it saves a lot of time.

Pros

  • The biggest plus is that everything is automated. We connected the store, everything works just fine: VAT was calculated, declarations were filed, nothing was forgotten.
  • Support is also standard - if something is unclear, they answer quickly and to the point.

Cons

  • Navigation in the dashboard is not very good. Sometimes it is a bit difficult to find the desired function the first time. For example, we did not immediately understand where to add new countries or reports. It would be cool to have tips in the interface

Likelihood to Recommend

LOVAT is great for online businesses selling in the EU or UK — fast registration and automated reporting. Less suitable for local companies without cross-border activity.

Great support

contacted LOVAT for help with VAT registration. We are also currently using a

trial subscription to the LOVAT software.

It is still too early for me to assess the advantages and disadvantages of

the software. However, I would like to acknowledge the LOVAT support team,

which has provided us with professional assistance in understanding the

intricacies of tax legislation in different countries and our obligations to

the tax authorities. I am very happy with the level of service that the LOVAT team has provided us.

Pros

Likelihood to Recommend

If a

company sells its services in several countries and needs VAT information in

different countries, as well as reminders about VAT payment deadlines, I

recommend using LOVAT.

Credible, Automated and Standard Tax Compliance Program

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We were selling only in the US and were dealing with Sales Tax with which were familiar. However, when we decided to expand to the EU and Australia we realized that it's a completely different tax system and had many troubles in understanding how it works. Lovat team and their platform helped us by explaining everything and solved our matters with tax reporting and now we are using it for both the USA and EU and Australia as the platform supports all of these regions and we handle our tax reporting in one place in one account of our company.

Pros

  • Variety of subscription plans which are flexible thanks to possibilities of purchasing various add-ons.
  • Tax audit reports which are available for download is a great feature that allows us to have a deeper look to our transactions from different sales channels of ours.
  • The support team in always helped us with difficulties or questions that we had on different stages while working with LOVAT

Cons

  • Include bigger amount of transactions to be supported by subscription plans
  • Make 24 hour support
  • In some countries VAT returns are not submitted immediately

Likelihood to Recommend

The automatic calculation of tax returns is absolutely great as almost no manual work is needed but the information about imports is not picked up automatically by the system and has to be filled manually. Furthermore, the filing of VAT tax among other specific taxation requirements has been resolved by LOVAT.

In our company, the platform is mainly used by the tax department.

Pros

Likelihood to Recommend

In my opinion, the Lovat team is doing an excellent job.

I got a good impression of this cooperation.

<table><tbody><tr><td>We use Lovat platform for VAT filing, which is a credible business operation. The software offers clear video instructions. That is very helpful. More so, LOVAT developer issues some documentations for simple learning. I can do my tax reporting without any problems. Lastly, LOVAT focuses on tax compliance, which ensures no state collisions due to failure of accomplishing the set laws.</td></tr></tbody></table><table><tbody></tbody></table>

Pros

  • Professional support, with short waiting time for answer
  • Free trial period. That helps to test the software before purchase
  • Regular updates according to the TAX rules and requirements in different countries

Cons

  • The support is only in English
  • No available support during weekends
  • Some search option of a specific transaction would be helpful

Likelihood to Recommend

It's well suited for e-commerce companies that sell abroad in various regions since it collects all the different data from different regions in countries in one place. However, for domestic sales it can't be the best solution as probably your domestic accountancy will require more professional tools. The program also supports tax compliance and accountability for companies.
