# Is SSI worth it for finance managers who want a trusted oil and gas back office accounting platform, based on user reviews?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Finance managers comparing tools in the <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/oil-and-gas-back-office">Oil and Gas Back Office</a> category keep circling back to SSI, so I dug into it specifically to see whether it holds up for that audience. Before going further, a data honesty note: SSI's listing on G2 is thin and mixed, several reviews under this product name are clearly for unrelated tools that happen to share it (a LinkedIn feature, a diving certification service, a dealership scoring tool), not the oil and gas accounting platform. I'm only pulling from the one review that's actually about it.</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true"><strong>What we're hoping to find for a finance manager evaluating trust here:</strong></p><ul>
<li>Consistent, efficient asset and expense tracking without heavy manual reconciliation</li>
<li>A vendor willing to adapt the system to how the finance team actually works</li>
<li>Straightforward day-to-day usability, even if the interface isn't polished</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true"><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/ssi/reviews"><strong>SSI</strong></a><strong>:</strong> The one applicable review describes it as simple to use and effective for tracking assets efficiently, with the vendor noted as more flexible and willing to build out what the team needs compared to other providers. The same reviewer calls the interface basic and not visually polished, though functional. Given how thin the genuinely relevant evidence is, I can't responsibly land on a confident yes or no here. There just isn't enough verified data on the accounting platform itself to say whether it holds up at scale for a finance team's reporting or audit needs. Has anyone here actually used SSI's oil and gas accounting product specifically? </p>

Honestly SSI is a legit, purpose-built option here, it&#39;s dedicated oil and gas accounting software, so it&#39;s built for the industry rather than a generic system bent to fit. The handful of G2 reviews it has are positive. The honest catch is exactly that, there are only a few reviews, so I&#39;d be careful calling it &quot;trusted&quot; on that basis alone, there just isn&#39;t enough public feedback to lean on. For a finance manager, that means treating it as promising but unproven-on-paper, and doing the legwork: ask the vendor for references at operators your size, and dig into how it handles your specific back-office needs like revenue distribution and joint interest billing. Are you replacing spreadsheets or migrating off another O&amp;G accounting system? That shapes how much the reference-checking matters.
