AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- G2 reviewers report that Avalara excels in overall user satisfaction, reflected in its significantly higher G2 Score compared to Tax1099. Users appreciate features like the ability to streamline the monthly SUT process and keep exemption certificates organized, which enhances their workflow.
- Users say that Avalara's customer support is a strong point, with many highlighting the helpful customer service when questions arise. In contrast, while Tax1099 has a higher support rating, it has fewer reviews, making it harder to gauge the consistency of its support.
- Reviewers mention that Avalara's implementation process is generally smooth, although some users have noted challenges in matching specific workflows. Tax1099, on the other hand, is praised for its straightforward usability and seamless integration with platforms like QuickBooks, making it a good choice for small businesses.
- According to verified reviews, Avalara's ability to automate tax processes is a standout feature, with users noting how it tracks resales by client accr number. Tax1099 users appreciate its convenient updates and ease of integration, but it lacks the advanced automation features that Avalara offers.
- G2 reviewers highlight that Avalara has a more extensive user base, particularly in the mid-market segment, which may indicate a broader range of features and support for larger businesses. Tax1099, while favored by small businesses, may not cater as effectively to the needs of larger organizations.
- Users report that while both products have a solid star rating, Avalara's higher volume of recent reviews suggests a more reliable and up-to-date user experience. Tax1099 has received fewer reviews recently, which may limit insights into its current performance and user satisfaction.
