Overall Satisfaction with BlackLine

We use blackline to manage month end clients tasks as well as account recs. Looking to leverage it for amortization schedules for use in building journal entries. Blackline gives us a centralized location and quick view of where the close process stands at any point during close. It also serves as a central location for the auditors to access recons, meaning less interruption for us.

  • Would like to have a way to force preparers to review system certified recons at least 2x a year
  • Improved visibility into tasks and recons
  • Decreased interruptions from auditors
  • Allowed us to move away from excel recons

Task tracking makes it easy for me to see where we stand during close as well as the tasks upcoming during the month to stay on track. It eliminates tracking in excel where copy/paste errors can be more likely. It also allows upper management a central location for them to view. Auditors having access to recons is a great time saving aspect as well.
