Revolutionized Our Lease Accounting Process

I appreciate that Black Owl Lease Accounting Solution provides all the calculations and schedules for all leases, making monthly adjusting journal entries quick and easy. I love having every bit of information for each lease in one spot for easy access at any time, which is crucial for year-end reporting and disclosures on the Reviewed Financial Statements. I enjoy the ability to generate journal entries for one specific lease or for all leases, and I can import these entries directly into the proprietary software my client uses. The software is dynamic enough to create the file type needed for export/import if it doesn't already exist. The ability to choose specific leases and time periods for running reports is incredibly valuable to me.

Effortlessly Eliminates Manual Lease Spreadsheets

I like that Black Owl Lease Accounting Solution is very easy to use, which really helps in managing our company's leases and related accounting processes. The ease of uploading new leases into the system is another feature I value as it simplifies what used to be a more complex task. The initial setup was very easy too, and Black Owl was very helpful in implementing it.

Black Owl Lease Accounting Solution - The Perfect Solution!

The software was quick to get set up and integrates well with our ERP platform NetSuite. I cannot say enough about the customer support of Black Owl. Greg Kautz and his team were amazing during the implementation and have also provided quick turnaround in assisting us with ad hoc queries. The software improved efficiency in our month end/quarter end and Year end process time, eliminating a process that was reliant on Excel and prone to errors. The reporting and disclosure features are incredible resources for proving out cash flow items related to leases and responding to ad hoc queries. The software becomes more impressive when handling changes to lease terms or managing unique lease terms such as rent-free periods etc.
