Overall Satisfaction with Avalara

We are in the banking software industry and Avalara does a great job in keeping up with the always changing software laws in the states where software is taxable. The Wayfair vs South Dakota changed this software taxability law to another level that we have not seen in the US before and without Avalara, I don't think it's possible to keep up with the changes day in and day out. Avalara is in my opinion the #1 Sales & Use Tax software available today in the market to tackle these software law changes. Having said that, we use Avalara in conjunction with our ERP (NetSuite) for years now and the process is very smooth. As an out-of-state seller into many jurisdictions the process was becoming unmanageable when we were tracking and reporting sales tax manually. Avalara's service cleaned everythng up and it is a releif not to have to worry about the liability and possible mistakes of manual sales tax reporting. We recently got audited by the State of Texas and when the auditor saw that we are using Avalara, she said this makes the process so much easier, and in fact the audit was finished quitely smoothly. Overall, I love this product/software and the entire Avalara team. I am happy and recommend them to anyone looking for a good sales tax and exemption system.

I've used other sales tax compliance software before and I would honestly say Avalara has the most user friendly features etc on the market today. It is easy to learn and with the support from Avalara, you will always have someone available for questions to help you out and for me, it's got to be the #1 sales & use tax system out there today in the market.
  • Avalara Returns
None as of today but we are hoping we can use other additional capabilities of the software soon.
In my opinion, Avalara is my go to software for all sales tax compliance work for any company in the United States. Without Avalara, I won't know how to stay in compliance because the change in laws are so many and it comes when you least expect it. Thank you Avalara!
