Overall Satisfaction with Avalara

We use Avalara for AvaTax to record our sales tax for each of our customer's transactions. We then also use it to help us when it comes to filing sales tax returns with the state each month. This makes it easy to record and track total sales per state each month.
  • Calculating each states sales tax.
  • Letting us know about our sales tax Nexus status.
  • Filing returns each month with each state.
  • Faster load times when looking at total month transactions.
Once it's set up with Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) it is almost automatic and very easy. Most issues are more human errors on our end. It makes invoicing easy.
  • Returns are easy thanks to Avalara taking care of them. I just have to make sure my numbers in Microsoft Dynamics GP match Avalara.
I only have used Avalara, which is great.
AvaTax is perfect for calculating each invoice's sales tax with Microsoft Dynamics GP (formerly Great Plains).
