Overall Satisfaction with Avalara

Avalara is the gold standard for managing tax compliance in many districts couldn't do without it. We utilize cert capture to manage tax exemptions as it is an ever changing landscape with tax laws and court cases making the decisions outside of our ability to manage those changes. Avalara makes compliance possible.

  • staff has not changed, hours have gone up, but we realized how out of compliance we were
  • filing returns are easier
  • ERP - Baan IV
fairly difficult with a 30yr old ERP system, but it did work!
some UX changes could make the experience better as well as tighter integration with cert capture and visibility back to ERP with certs on file.
  • Avalara Returns
  • CertCapture
benefit from having the certs on file in the right place
Well suited for tax compliance for any size company
