Lots of training and tutorials provided - "Set it and forget it" .. well not exactly .. you still have to monitor and reconcile monthly to ensure everything is running smoothly. But saves a lot of time logging in and figuring out how to file taxes monthly for each state. - Reporting is very transparent. Easy to download reports, and compile and save info for auditing purposes. > > **Cons**: - Use Tax functionality is not fully automated for all software. We use NetSuite, and there's no way to capture Use Tax on Expense Reports so these must still be entered into Avalara manually. - Customer Support is sometimes lacking. It takes forever to get a hold of someone on the phone, and when you do, many of the times the case just gets escalated to someone else so no immediate help. Also, they may point you to an article online that you've already found by Googling on your own. ----- ### "Avalara tax interpretation is easiest of the 4 tax software engines I use today" — 5.0/5 > **Joseph** | *27 June 2024* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Avalara has created a logical well thought out tax calculation product that allows for laymens terms interpretations with our customers. related to surcharges, tax on tax implications, that many traditional CPA's and accountants are not familiar with, and the Telecommunications industry is loaded with tax on tax at the Federal and State levels. > > **Cons**: Avalara implementations and customer support are generally NOT good. Every implementation I have done with Avalara has required myself or my company, accountants, engineers to do 85% of the work to implement, test, and go live. This has been a problem for years across numerous products we use today. Please start addressing this. > > The product is great, the reporting tool with data results are logical. Customer support stinks, and migrations, implementations, cause a huge problem and strain our relationship with Avalara regularly to the point that we have a number of other tax solutions winning the bid in newly acquired entities and migrations because Avalara is not reliable in this area. ----- ### "Software is the only thing worth using - RETURN & PROFESSIONAL TAX SERVICES ARE QUESTIONABLE" — 3.0/5 > **Mira** | *18 September 2024* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: Their software that is used and intergrated into woocommerce to determine correct tax rate > > **Cons**: Customer Service - non existent Account Rep - just a sales person, literally tells us she cannot help us with issues Tax Expertise - questionable - they state they will ensure you will "Submit returns to the right places at the right times with an automated filing" and they literally have been filing our LA returns to the wrong tax entity for 3 years and when I brought it to their attention and asked how they would resolve this their reply is "it is \[your company\] responsibility to ensure that state registration aligns with the schedule return setup in Avalara Portal, \[your company\] will need to resolve this notice directly with the LA" or pay for additional services from Avalara. Also This was not the first misunderstanding we had with one of the states and we did use their backservices to pay for another state error. Took Avalara 3 months to get the back returns filed. > > It was great for 3 years as we assumed they were doing their job of tax assessment and tax returns well but the house of cards began to fall when we started getting notices from State entities that our taxes had been filed incorrectly for YEARS. ----- ### "Avalara 10 year review" — 4.0/5 > **Tracey** | *13 February 2025* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Avalara provides information on tax situations throughout the 46 taxing states + District of Columbia. As well as how to use their systems. > > **Cons**: Avalara support for it's software applications. > > Avalara is a straight-forward software. Avalara provides many avenues to gather information about Indirect taxes. ----- ### "Avalara Cert and Tax" — 5.0/5 > **Val** | *20 January 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Tsx calculations and tax return preparations for US SAles tax > > **Cons**: customer service and su\[\[prt for clients > > ovaral great experience in the past 10 years ----- Page: 1 / 15\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/91105/avatax?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/91105/avatax) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
