DataBlend Reviews & Product Details

We use DataBlend monthly for actual integrations and extensively during our annual budgeting cycle, including multiple rounds of budget updates and forecasts. It has significantly streamlined our financial data processes.

Before DataBlend, our workflow was completely manual — exporting, cleaning, reformatting, and uploading budget data separately for each entity. The platform has automated these steps, saving substantial time and reducing errors.

Implementation was straightforward and well-structured. We were able to configure mappings and workflows without complex development, and the intuitive interface enabled our finance team to manage integrations with minimal IT dependency.

The flexibility to adjust mappings as our reporting structures evolve has been particularly valuable during forecast cycles. Built-in validations and audit visibility have also strengthened governance and confidence in our data.

Additionally, the support team is responsive and dependable, especially during month-end close and budgeting periods.

Overall, Data Blend has been an efficient, scalable, and reliable solution for our cross-system financial integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While our overall experience with DataBlend has been positive, there is a learning curve when first setting up more complex integrations, especially when dealing with multiple dimensions and transformation logic. Users without prior integration experience may need some initial guidance to fully understand mapping structures and workflow configurations.

Additionally, more advanced customization options sometimes require deeper configuration knowledge, which can take time to fully master.

That said, the support team has been helpful in addressing questions and assisting during setup and optimization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that it can take an excel file and then streamline all the steps that would normally be manual - like checking to see if a vendor is in the system, adding them if not, and sending a transaction over. All seamlessly! The customer service is also outstanding - I have never had to wait long for an answer and they are always helpful. m Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface to create a workflow can be a bit difficult to learn. Once set up though, it is fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DataBlend is an incredible data connector for our accounting clients. It replaces Excel spreadsheets, pivot tables, and manual data analysis and converts information that automatically entered the GL with a simple drag and drop process. We love working with the DataBlend on implementations as well, as they are very knowledgeable and great to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Implementing DataBlend requires a moderate knowledge base of SQL. However, we use the DataBlend implementation to streamline this process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are extremely happy with our experience with DataBlend and building our integration with Sage Intacct. Amy Mayer is an excellent Implementation person who knows DataBlend and Intacct very well, she was very quick to understand our data coming from a third party system and also learn our operations in order to build the integration without any hiccups. The build was on-time and we made our Go-Live on time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I dislike about Datablend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DataBlend helps enable our financial reporting outside of ADP by giving us real time up-to-date information from our ADP software within our FP&A tool, Workday Adaptive Planning. Their integration is crucial to being able to run real-time up-to-date reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No downsides to speak of, implementation through go-live went well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have implemented many systems over the years and Datablend was by far the easiest to do. There was no hurdle or obstacle too big that our implementation manager could not overcome for us . They were able to configure everything we wanted, unlike other systems where the answer was simply "no, it can't do that".

We have, now, been able to automate postings from our expense management system directly into our accounting system saving our purchase ledger team a lot of time.

Their interface is straightforward/intuitive and could be easily maintained by a non-techy employee.

Seeing the automation opportunities available courtesy of Datablend has already given us some ideas for the future - we will definitely be setting up more workflows and connections with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, there are genuinely no issues. Hopefully it shall continue as such :). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The account manager is highly responsive, and the integration consultant I worked with demonstrated a great deal of expertise. Although the implementation process took longer than I had expected, the consultant made sure we were fully prepared for the scheduled go-live date. We did encounter a few hiccups, which is to be expected with a brand new implementation, but they were always available to resolve any issues promptly, even with their busy schedule.

Their platform was initially very intimidating to someone like me who doesn't know anything about building integrations, but after the training I received and watching the consultant make changes for us, I feel a lot more comfortable going in there to manually run workflows or make changes to the schedule.

Their support staff is courteous and responsive as well. I worked with one so far, and they always responded within a day and kept me updated on progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really have to be nitpicking to find something I dislike about DataBlend, but if I have to list something, it would be that I wish we could make some minor changes to the workflows we have.

The support team can help with errors, but if we want to add something new, we have to sign off on a change order.

But honestly, I'd rather we pay them to get it done right than me trying to figure it out and break things. So this isn't really a complaint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Understands our needs completely. DataBlend worked with us to create workflows that are critical to our work. Just awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. So enjoy the partnership in helping us with meeting our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have just completed the implementation of Data Blend and Valentina was extremely supportive and on hand whenever i required assistance. I do not have an IT background, although she demonstrated the system in a way i understood how things worked to the point i was able to solve some issues for myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was not as quick as i initially thought and required a lot of dedicated time from myself, which i was not expecting. This was my first time running a project like this so i could have potentially be slightly naïve initially.

The sales team also promised me a date in which this would be completed, which i can only believe was never discussed internally , as when i was passed over, this was evidently clear that the deadline was unachievable. I believe it would be beneficial for sales and support to discuss before promising delivery dates to clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love DataBlend as a quick way to upload data from our other systems into Sage Intelligence. I also like the flexibility to be able to map accounts if they are needing to be posted to a different G/L account than was set up in the other system. This allowed us to not have to change the historical accounts in our other systems. DataBlend was also very helpful in creating a 3 step posting for a complicated payroll posting. We are able to upload one file and DataBlend does the rest of the work to create 3 journal entries. Customer support has been great as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At first, it was hard to figure out what an error meant, but after working with it for awhile it has gotten easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
