Accounting Seed Reviews & Product Details

Salesforce integration is seamless- you can type things in once which saves time and decreases errors. One less logon, built in Salesforce. You can automate almost anything. Things that I thought would be hard, were not (e.g. payroll upload). Team there is available for training- our Accounting Seed partners Chris Johannes and Elle Carter continue to be incredibly helpful, friendly, and experts in the system. We did a comprehensive integration with a propriety app to decrease inventory levels as assets were produced- and ambitious goal and it worked! Our CEO presented some of our manufacturing technology, including our integration with Accounting Seed, at Dreamforce last year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system has the ability to do a high amount of customization- that is a huge plus, but can also be daunting when you start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that because it lives entirely contained within Salesforce, I (as a SF admin) can extend its ability with typical Salesforce methodology. It's a great fit for companies who do B2B sales and handle all of their data through Salesforce. This also allows me to add my own fields to their objects, relate them to my custom objects, and automate as much of the process as possible.

The potential for doing complex accounting and tying it directly to our Sales, Contracting Invoicing and Billing processes is extremely high - it just requires your admin to be able to do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A lot of their custom pages and lightning just don't show all the information my users want to see - and I can't just add fields to display on these interfaces. The user has to click through to the record to see more info, which can make reconciliation a chore.

AccountingSeed's object hierarchy is also extremely complex and took a lot of getting used to - and I'm not even utilizing everything we have available.

I came in to the project for implementing AccountingSeed about 6 months in - and at least 4 months after it was expected to be delivered. A lot of the shortcomings were due to the previous admins not having any real experience, too large of a reliance on consultants that don't really care, and attempting to tie the system in to homegrown purchase systems that really need to be replaced. That said, it seems like the AS team hasn't been too concerned with customer success or utilization here - I expect more out of an enterprise software company.

The ability to connect with the online knowledge base and/or talk to a product specialist to help us ensure we're getting the most out of the product. It easily connects with the key object we work within Salesforce and has a pretty seamless flow to process invoices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was challenging to move to a new system at first, but we're grateful we put the investment in to ensure we could use the product as intended. We had to reconfigure our GL code structure, slightly, to fit in with the GL structure of Accounting Seed. Overall, it was well-worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is an excellent tool to solve problems of sales control and administrative processes, mainly I have been using it to control the administrative processes of the company and it has been great for me, its ease of use is something that I applaud, you can That at first it took me a bit to adapt, but after I got hold of the thread I realized that everything is really quite simple to do, and the support team is quite efficient when it comes to solving any doubts or concerns that arise. In my case, I created a ticket in the morning for a problem I had and by noon I had the solution to my problem in my email, another thing that I also like a lot is the fact that it is customizable, which allows you to configure the functions that I use most and leave them at hand and even leave them programmed to run themselves Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The creation of billing reports can be somewhat cumbersome since it requires many previous processes to be able to properly issue the report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Accounting Seed is an Accrual Based accounting system. It would be really helpful to also have the ability to view a Cash Basis accounting financial statement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Data is housed on the Salesforce platform. But that’s it. No other benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nearly everything about Accounting Seed is a manual process that is locked down by Accounting Seed. Even though the data is on the Salesforce Platform, Accounting Seed has gone to great lengths to prevent customization of workflow & processes with their product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Accounting Seed UI is a perfect extension of the Salesforce related list UI, both in Classic and Lighting mode! It is easy to find your way around the application and all the supporting information for a transaction is right there! It makes a one time auditor like me very comfortable about providing the proper documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is really nothing detrimental to the Accounting Seed platform. It easily beats out NetSuite for ease of use. It is true double entry accounting! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great customer service and user-friendly interface, provides flexibility and customization, great functionality and it also works well with SalesForce and allows the transfer of data easily and hassle-free to create your accounting reports in one place! Great communication when contacting customer support they will listen and help in any way they can!

Makes our AP and AR team job easy, printing financial reports it's just a click away! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The bank reconciliation module reconciles to the bank statement and should reconcile to the GL account maybe it's a setting that needs to be changed or some training that I‏‏‎ ‎ might've missed. It ‏‏‎ ‎would be nice to have a Non-profit pricing package available, for the services that we‏‏‎ ‎ provide ‎at no cost to our clients sometimes we found ourselves trying to save money everywhere we can!‎ The only feedback I have is the one stated before other than that I have no complaints or dislikes that I can think ‏‏‎ ‎of.‎ Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Accounting Seed (AS) on the Salesforce Platform is the perfect set-up for both management and financial Reporting. AS is easy to use while unique company needs can be easily addressed with added Apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I work with AS for small business and so licensing can become costly although There are varying licensing levels which can help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mary, without her help we would have never be successful! Second best is having all account info in one place! Not having to switch between programs for information.

Able to send invoice and receipt direct from SF. Make processing orders faster and have fewer mistakes. Helps us track order process much better than before, we would have to switch back and forth from programs and some time s it became so much trouble we would get off track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some very basic functions are not standard, I get it that the system is custom so that's why they are not there.

Had to upgrade Salesforce to get a features. Training videos are old and out of of date. goes from video to power point like display. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The inability to customize invoice document names without a 3rd party tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the integration of AS to SF. It's traightforward from a technical perspective. End Users also find it the interface simple to use. Their Support staff is very knowledgable and I like their newest offering, their LMS platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am a hands on kind of person and I like when someone actually shows me how to do something versus reading documentation. Many times I am in a rush to solve an issue and I search the documentation and the LMS and still can't find the answer. I then submit a Case and wait for an agent to respond. Agents are great thoughQ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to integrate with Salesforce makes it for a better experience for people in our accounting department as well as employees outside of the department. It makes the lives of our Dev team a lot easier when building integrations.

Accounting Seed also has a great knowledge that answers the vast majority of your questions. If you can't find an answer, opening a case and getting a reply usually gets the job done within a day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The design could be updated a little bit as sometimes it feels like those early 2000s accounting software.

It can take some time to get comfortable with it specially if you had no previous knowledge of Salesforce, which was the case with our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can not change some of the reports for Financial Statements. This should be easy out the box to do.

Need a developer to customize everything and the Dashboard should have more important information and not be so difficult to change graphs.

A lot of money time and effort is needed to create this customized Accounting package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Accounting Seed (AS) is fully integrated into SaleForce (SF) making training easier. Knowledge of SF helps in AS. It flows in a logical process. Easy to add objects to supplement or customize information needed. Response time while using AS is instantaneous. The best response time in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited built-in (canned) reports plus limited reporting because SF sends all reports to Excel. Customization sometimes rendered useless when upgrades are released. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
