Overall Satisfaction with BlackLine

We use it to faciliate account reconciliations, journal entry approvals and task management. Our various SAP systems automatically send account balances and journal entries to BlackLine. We can also manually import account reconciliations for our locations that are not on SAP.
  • Facilitates account reconciliation easily
  • Digitally stores data that is accessible from any computer
  • Customer support is excellent
  • Task Management is a bit clunky
  • Grouping journals (when using BlackLine as passive technology) is not really possible (i.e. when journals are initiated in SAP).
  • Full audit trail still missing
  • Creating new timeperiods must be done manually
  • Account Reconciliation
  • Journal Entry approvals
  • audit trail
  • Centalized accounting documentation instead of storing hard copy records
  • Simplifying the audit process

Do you think BlackLine delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with BlackLine's feature set?

Yes

Did BlackLine live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of BlackLine go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy BlackLine again?

Yes

For global companies with locations in various timezones/countries, having a central repository for Account reconciliations and journal approvals is vital.

I see it for an enterprise solution, small businesses may not really get the full benefit, the cost may exceed the benefits.
