Vertex Indirect Tax O Series

Overall Satisfaction with Vertex

We use Vertex for VAT and US Sale tax. VAT is used for all transaction related to EMEA transaction ( Sales and Purchase). US sales tax is used for US and Canada only for Sales trnasactions

Pros

  • Tax rates and changes are automatically update as and when changes are effective in multiple countries
  • Vertex support mechanism is very good, any issues or tickets are handled well within the timelines
  • Integration of the Vertex system with ERP system is also very good

Cons

  • Vertex can do well in Tax reporting
  • Vertex needs to improve the country based Tax filing reports. We still rely on Tax Specialist to file the returns
  • We had implemented Vertex in 2016 and have upgrade the system twice . The ROI has accomplished in 2019
  • The indirect tax team managing tax has been reduced from 10 person to 2 person.
  • The Technical team supporting the system has been reduced from 5 to 2
Vertex handles almost all tax scenarios without modify the Native ERP systema and covers about 18 countries. Since 2016 we have corrected our AR invoice only twice , so we can say Tax rates applied over various tax scenarios are very accurate
Since Vertex has solution that can be extended in multiple countries across countries . We do not need tax experts in every countries we roll out our products and services . Once the implementation is done and system are test , it works as a well oiled machines
Since the Tax rate maintained are automated in a Cloud version, most of the hard work is managed by Vertex. That is very limited manual work involved in managing tax related activities
