# Best Financial Close Software for Teams Prioritizing Quick Implementation

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">On comparing <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/financial-close">financial close software</a> - <strong>FloQast</strong>, <strong>LiveFlow</strong>, and <strong>Numeric</strong> lead the category on actual time-to-live, with <strong>Double</strong> technically the fastest on paper but carrying a real implementation caveat worth weighing.</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/floqast/reviews"><strong>FloQast</strong></a> (4.6 stars, 1,415 reviews): the fastest average implementation of any Grid Leader (1.7 months), and reviewers consistently describe it as easy to understand and quick to roll out. One Enterprise reviewer's honest caveat: setup and integration can still take real time in larger, more complex accounting environments, even though the average is fast.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/liveflow/reviews"><strong>LiveFlow</strong></a> (4.9 stars, 332 reviews): averages just 0.6 months to go live, and reviewers repeatedly describe the initial setup as smooth, sometimes crediting a direct training call for getting comfortable with it from day one.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/numeric/reviews"><strong>Numeric</strong></a> (4.8 stars, 65 reviews): averages 0.5 months to go live, and reviewers describe needing very little training to get up and running, with setup from a CSV import described as quick and straightforward.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/double-double/reviews"><strong>Double</strong></a> (4.9 stars, 80 reviews, reviewed on G2 mostly under its former name, Keeper): the fastest average implementation in the category on paper (0.4 months), but at least one reviewer specifically called the implementation more complicated than expected because the onboarding videos were too short, so I'd weigh the Grid average against that individual account.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">For a team prioritizing speed, does a fast average implementation time matter more than how it holds up once your accounting setup gets more complex?</p>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&quot;&gt;Financial Close reviews on G2 report implementation speed in a way that flattens a lot of real variation underneath. A fast average implementation time is usually an average across straightforward setups, so it says very little about how a tool behaves once you&#39;re dealing with multiple entities, custom close checklists, or messy chart-of-accounts history. The Double example here is telling, since a tool can have the fastest number on paper and still trip up a specific account if onboarding leans on short videos instead of a real walkthrough for edge cases.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&quot;&gt;What tends to matter more than the average is whether the vendor has a clear answer for what happens when your setup doesn&#39;t match the standard path, since that&#39;s usually where the timeline actually breaks down. Complexity almost always shows up after go-live rather than during it, so the more useful question for a vendor is less about days to implement and more about what the first messy month-end looked like for a similarly sized team.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
