Overall Satisfaction with Avalara

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I began using this program when it was Track 1099. I've used this program ever I started my company in 2012 to generate and issue my firm's 1099s. Easy to use, efficient, and cost-effective. They save your data so you can reuse it each year. As a small business, I don't have a dedicated accounting staff, so I can do this myself.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Retain info from previous years.
Making IRS filings.
Track receipt of 1099s by recipients.

Cons

Keep all the previous recipients.

Return on Investment

Fast and efficient.
Very cost effective.
Reliable delivery.

Usability

Super easy to use and retains the data from previous years. Allows me to issue 1099s in minutes, not hours. Handles all tax reporting and recipient notifications. It monitors the receipt of the forms and retains the records for years. Allows you to download all the forms for record when complete.

Alternatives Considered
