Overall Satisfaction with BlackLine

We have found it great for cash matching from our bank feeds to the journals in our accounting system, as well as matching of credit card payments by customers to the invoices and cash settlements from the credit card processor of those payments. It is also good for sox compliance, showing review certification, keeping preparer and reviewer separate, and helping keep track of reconciling items, comments around those items, etc.

Pros

  • Works with large data sets
  • Works with several different systems
  • Posts journals back to accounting system

Cons

  • BlackLine technical support needed for data set setups
  • Admin role needed for a lot of set up
  • Rules around alerts are limited, cannot be custom written
  • Great viability to team progress
  • Great ability to track and follow up on reconciling items

Yes

Did BlackLine live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of BlackLine go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy BlackLine again?

Yes

Easy for users to do recons and other items, however more complicated items require system admin or blackline directly to set up.
Team is knowledgeable and receptive to feedback.
This is a good system for automation of recons, matching, and some journals. We have found it great for large data sets.
