Mekari Jurnal Reviews & Product Details

One thing we really appreciate about Mekari Jurnal is that it combines asset management and financial accounting in a single platform. This setup makes it easier for us to monitor company assets while keeping our financial records organized and consistently up to date. Because the information is connected, we get a clearer picture of our company’s resources and how they support our overall financial position. It also reduces the need to handle asset data separately, which makes day-to-day financial monitoring more practical and efficient. Overall, this integration improves visibility across both assets and finances, helping us manage company resources more effectively and make better-informed business decisions.

When we’re working with large volumes of data, we sometimes notice that Mekari Jurnal takes a bit longer to process certain tasks. This is most noticeable when we’re handling a high number of transactions or reviewing extensive financial records. Even so, the system generally stays stable throughout, which matters a lot for our day-to-day accounting work. We’re still able to manage our financial information without major disruptions, even when the dataset is larger.

Although faster processing would improve the overall experience, we value the platform’s reliability and consistent performance. For our needs, keeping records accurate and ensuring the system remains stable are just as important as speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the things I like most about Mekari Jurnal is how much it simplifies our financial reporting. It can automatically generate key financial statements, such as profit and loss reports and balance sheets, which saves us a lot of time compared to preparing them manually. The data is also updated in real time, so we can get a more accurate picture of our current financial situation whenever we need it. As a result, it’s easier for us to monitor business performance, review our finances, and make decisions based on up-to-date information. Overall, Jurnal makes our accounting process more efficient, better organized, and more reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is the flexibility of report customization. Although the current templates cover most of our reporting needs, it would be helpful to have more ways to tailor both the layout and the specific information shown. Since different businesses often have their own preferred methods for presenting financial and operational data, the ability to adjust reports to match specific requirements would make the reporting process even more convenient. That said, the existing report templates are already very useful and consistently provide the details we need for day-to-day operations. Overall, we’re satisfied with the reporting features as they are, and additional customization would simply make them more flexible and adaptable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mekari Jurnal stands out thanks to its seamless integration, user-friendly interface, and strong automated reconciliation features. It turns complex accounting tasks into clear, real-time insights, making it easy for us to produce accurate financial reports with just a few clicks. Its cloud-based setup also gives us reliable control over our business finances anytime and anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The mobile app version, while convenient for quick approvals and basic tracking, offers somewhat limited features compared to the full web dashboard. Furthermore, deeper customization options for invoice templates and third-party API integrations could be expanded to give growing businesses more flexibility. However, the core desktop capabilities more than meet our daily financial management needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, the thing I value most about Mekari Jurnal is how it makes reconciling customer prepayments and artisan vendor bills feel less like a guessing game for our fine jewelry atelier. I’m Lena Ucehe, Operations & Digital Manager for Aether Fine Atelier here in Des Moines. We’re a small luxury studio, so every custom commission, consignment piece, and gemstone supplier payment carries a lot of weight, and one slip-up with the numbers can shake a client’s confidence right away. We were previously using Wave for our books, and we learned that lesson the hard way with a custom emerald pendant order last spring.

That client paid a sizable deposit upfront for a rare emerald we sourced from a gem dealer overseas. I logged the deposit in Wave, but Wave’s structure didn’t give me a simple way to tie that prepayment to the separate artisan labor charges and stone cost. When our goldsmith submitted his final bill weeks later, our bookkeeper mixed up the deposit against a different retail order by accident. When the client reached out to lock in their final payment, our sales lead quoted them the wrong remaining balance. The client was understandably alarmed; they thought we’d double-counted their deposit. We spent an entire evening cross-referencing bank records, supplier receipts, and design approval emails to fix the math and send a corrected statement. That was the moment I knew we needed accounting software that was built to track these custom, multi-step orders cleanly.

With Mekari Jurnal, what hits different for me is how its project ledger stays linked to every single transaction tied to a commission. When we open a new custom jewelry job, I spin up a dedicated project right away. The client’s deposit lands there, any invoices from our stone suppliers and master goldsmiths attach to it, and the final balance invoice rolls up under that same project. I don’t have to manually copy numbers between different tabs or cross-reference disconnected entries. Just last month, we had four bespoke wedding band commissions running in parallel. Before our weekly design sync, I pulled each project’s ledger in Mekari Jurnal in just a couple minutes and could tell instantly which clients still had pending balances and which vendor bills hadn’t yet come in. That kind of at-a-glance visibility was impossible with Wave.

I also really like how easy it is to adjust invoice wording for our luxury clients. Our buyers don’t want bare-bones accounting receipts. They want line items that make sense: CAD design time, stone setting, hand-finishing, independent appraisal, insured shipping. Mekari Jurnal lets me customize every line description and brand the whole invoice to match our atelier’s tone. Several clients have even mentioned how thoughtful and premium our statements feel, which adds to the whole bespoke experience we sell.

The bank feed matching also saves me so much tedious grunt work. We get payments from our website checkout, wire transfers, and card payments, and Mekari Jurnal will match most incoming funds to an open invoice automatically. It flags anything that doesn’t line up, like a consignment settlement from our gallery partner, so we don’t accidentally categorize that money as direct retail revenue. The role permissions are a nice touch too. Our sales team can look up their own client invoices to answer quick questions, but they can’t touch our tax codes or bank setup.

I should note that Mekari Jurnal doesn’t handle our gem and finished jewelry inventory, so we keep that tracked separately. Even so, it fixes the biggest pain point we ran into on Wave: keeping custom-order finances siloed and easy to trace. For a small luxury jewelry studio where trust and transparency with high-value clients are everything, that reliability is priceless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My main gripe is how poorly it handles partial credit and refund workflows tied to active custom projects. Back in spring, we had a client who placed a custom platinum bracelet commission and paid a large upfront deposit. After we’d already purchased the diamond for the piece, they decided to downsize the design, which meant we owed them a partial refund against their existing project balance. When I tried to log that refund directly against the open project in Mekari Jurnal, the system didn’t automatically adjust the project’s earned and unearned revenue totals. I issued the refund transaction, but the project ledger still showed the original full deposit amount as available credit. A week later, our sales consultant quoted the client’s updated final price using that incorrect ledger balance, and we almost underbilled the project by over $1,800. I only spotted the discrepancy when I was prepping the weekly vendor payment run. Fixing it required creating manual journal entries and adding lengthy notes to the project, and I had to walk our team through this workaround so no one else would repeat the mistake. There’s no straightforward native workflow for these mid-commission adjustments, which are surprisingly common with our bespoke clients.

I’m also frustrated by the limitations around role-based visibility for project financials. We have our lead designer who helps discuss costing with clients, and I wanted to grant them permission to view project expenses for their own commissions without letting them see our full agency overhead, tax filings, or other clients’ sensitive pricing. Mekari Jurnal’s permission sets are all-or-nothing for the finance module. If someone can open a project, they can browse every bill, vendor rate, and payment record across the whole account. We had a close call when our designer pulled up a different commission’s goldsmith pricing while preparing a quote, which exposed our negotiated vendor rates. Since I can’t silo projects by assigned user, I’ve had to restrict most team members to view-only invoice access only, which slows down their ability to answer client cost questions independently.

In my opinion, the Jurnal features are excellent and greatly simplify accounting work. The expense and cost modules provide an import function that makes it easier to record large volumes of transactions efficiently. The system also simplifies the calculation of company asset depreciation and allows users to save time by cloning recurring journal entries for transactions that occur every month.

In addition, the financial statement overview is very user-friendly, making it easy to review both the balance sheet and profit & loss reports. Another valuable feature is Cashlink, which helps streamline the company's bank reconciliation process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Mekari Jurnal is the live chat feature with customer service. When using this feature, users need to manually close the chat window, which can be inconvenient. In my opinion, it would be better if the chat feature were designed as a floating pop-up on the web page or integrated into a dedicated menu within the dashboard, making it more accessible and user-friendly.

When my internet connection is slow, synchronization takes a little longer, but it has never caused any data loss. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the financial reporting system, especially the General Ledger (GL). It is very easy to trace transactions because when I check the GL, I can see the original source document immediately. This tracing feature makes my auditing and checking process much faster.

The login verification process can be annoying sometimes. Every time I log in with my username and password, I have to open my email tab just to copy and paste the verification code.
