Overall Satisfaction with BlackLine

We currently use BlackLine for all aspects of our close process. We utilize the journal entries, tasks, reconciliations, and variance features in this program. BlackLine is able to talk to our accounting program, SAP, which is extremely important and helpful. BlackLine allows us to make sure our balance sheet and P&Ls are correct.
  • BlackLine is very responsive and helpful when we have an issue.
  • BlackLine truly values our input and listens to our suggestions for changes.
  • BlackLine is very user friendly and easy to follow and find things you are looking for.
  • I wish we could insert a line into the middle of a journal entry that has been keyed instead of only being allowed to enter it at the bottom.
  • Similar to the above, I would like to be able to "move" a line in a journal entry up or down.
  • The "default" view does not default when I go into the different features - I have to change it to default each time.
  • We utilize the tasks feature to keep our employees on track so items are completed in a timely manner.
  • Our company also uses the reconciliations feature. We like to complete the recons before we close so we are able to fix any errors if we don't balance.
  • We are able to complete our period close in a timely manner, and be confident in our numbers thanks to all of the checks BlackLine has in place for us.

From my experience, BlackLine is well-suited for every scenario that we have used it for. When we initially started using BlackLine, it was very time-consuming to key a large journal entry so it was frustrating - however, after asking for an easier way, we were eventually informed of how to upload data into a journal entry. This was life changing!
