Overall Satisfaction with BlackLine

BlackLine is used in the accounting department. We are using it to be more consistent with recons and tasks--stored in one location. This year we implemented and used the variance analysis component and it worked extremely well. It was convenient to have variances automatically highlighted and the analysts' comments in one document for review vs several.
  • Easy to use.
  • Simple to review individual and team data.
  • Flexible setup options.
  • Better attention to user concerns.
  • More detailed troubleshooting documents.
  • Consistency.
  • Seeing status of all recons/tasks/variance analyses.
  • Visibility.
  • So far, no positive or negative impacts.
Blackline was much more intuitive and easy to use.

Would you buy BlackLine again?

It will be great to get to the point of transaction matching, subledger comparisons--we have not implemented these yet. Implementing these would help us more quickly do our reconciliations.

Using BlackLine

From what I've seen, high usability--we haven't used all the features yet.
