Vertex Indirect Tax O Series

Overall Satisfaction with Vertex

The tax department recently implemented the Vertex O Series in direct combination with our SAP system. We use an on-premise version. Implementation took a lot longer than expected and is more involved then we anticipated, but are happy with the results and once completely finished maintenance and updates to maintain the systems will save the company both time and resources. We have worked in combination with consultants in testing and implementation. Vertex is always very helpful and customer-oriented which is one of our favorite aspects of the services. We also utilize their Vertex Return service in combination with the O Series system.
  • Customer service is always very responsive and proactive for any issues we are having.
  • The software works well in combination with our ERP SAP.
  • For some industries that may not be as large, it can be difficult to be heard when there are other larger industries that need innovations in the software as well.
  • Implementation can be time-intensive and require a bit of training for staff.
  • Helped us have one central location to house all of our sales tax exemption certificates.
  • It provides support and research to back our taxability decisions.
  • Excellent customer service that is proactive in meeting our needs and responsive when an issue arises.
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Product Reputation
  • Vendor Reputation
  • Positive Sales Experience with the Vendor
  • Third-party Reviews
Price and features are the most important factors in deciding which software to implement. We want to make sure they will meet our needs and improve processes while also increasing efficiencies.
  • We are using Vertex O Series to create some user-defined industry-specific tax drivers.
  • We are able to identify areas that we may owe use tax that we were not aware of before.
Configuration can be very time-intensive in implementation stages, but also needs to be maintained as needs change or laws change.
Vertex Exchange and local user groups have been a great asset in getting ahead of new features and planning out implementations of upgrades to the system.
  • Accelerator and LCR Dixon products.
Vertex O Series is great at managing and compiling our Sales Tax Exemption Certifications as well as compiling our indirect tax information so that we can send it over to the Vertex tax returns team to file our returns in a timely manner.
