  • We didn't have to hire someone in house to handle sales tax
  • We still spend a lot of time in house handling sales tax, sales tax compliance, reports, etc.
  • Ecommerce
  • CRM
  • Accounting
It took us nearly a year to set up Avalara to integrate with our custom CRM.
As previously stated, a lot of times when I go to Avalara with issues, the matters remain unresolved.
  • Avalara Returns
We have not had to hire someone in house to maintain and handle all sales tax reporting and returns.
We used Accurate Tax briefly to calculate our tax rates for Ecommerce, we had multiple issues with miscalculating.
We have had many scenarios when Avalara has been unable to help us get situations resolved. A lot of back and forth. Where issues remain unresolved.
