About Accounting Seed

Accounting Seed is a complete accounting solution powered by Salesforce.

The three core components of Accounting Seed are General Ledger, Project Accounting, and Enterprise Resource Planning. The General Ledger component includes full accrual accounting with a sub-account structure that allows for four separate segments, enabling you to manage projects and tasks within the same ledger. You can also generate financial reports and statements, reconcile bank accounts, and manage both accounts payable and cash disbursements. You can further manage your cash flow by setting up recurring billing, creating PDF invoices, and printing checks.

The Project Accounting within the Accounting Seed platform allows you to measure a project’s profitability against multiple budgets as well as manage resources and associated expenses with flexible time cards. Enhance how you monitor projects with built-in expense reporting, scheduled revenue recognition, and multiple billing assets depending on types of work.

Better manage sales orders and inventory across warehouses with the Enterprise Resource Planning features included in Accounting Seed. You can also convert opportunities to orders, such as lite manufacturing and construction ones. Need to manage Customer Returns (RMAs) and installed assets? No problem. With Accounting Seed, you can do everything you need and keep the data in one place.

If you work for a business that needs to track across multiple companies or currencies, enables you to choose between languages, and supports value-added tax (VAT), Accounting Seed is the software for you. The multi-currency, multi-entity, and multinational solutions support companies in the U.S., U.K., and Canada. The automation capability gives you the financial visibility and forecasting you need to make smart business decisions.

    overall Accounting Seed has been a great experience. I appreciate the architecture of their program as it is built a a very secure way that is intuitive.

    Pros

    I appreciate the free Documentation on explaining different accounting concepts. I also appreciated the original CEO's music video to help promote.

    We switched to Accounting Seed after having a terrible time trying to setup Sage and they made the process easy and efficient.

    Then we moved another company of ours to Accounting Seed which uses the ERP features which have worked well.

    Cons

    I don't like the process to login to the support portal and put in support tickets. You used to be able to put tickets in via email. But, they took that away. Now you have to login to the support portal, which very annoyingly does not allow you to hit enter to login. and then create a ticket. You receive email updates on tickets, but you can't reply from the email. You have to log back into the support portal for each reply.

    Seems to be a cheap way to reduce support tickets.

    Reviewed on 07/06/2022

    Pros

    I like that it's cloud based and can be accessed from anywhere.

    Cons

    The reporting features could be better, having the ability to customize reports with ease, not as "intuitive" as I had hoped, but gets the job done.

    Alternatives Considered

    Intact iQ

    Reasons for Choosing Accounting Seed

    Our old system did not provide a good tracking and reporting functionality for our organization. Having the ability to use variables in AS helps us do that now, which we like.

    Reasons for Switching to Accounting Seed

    From the demo the customization seemed very good (although once we started using the product we found limitations that we had to work around) and the pricing was very competitive at the time of purchase (although that has since gone up) compared to Intact.

    Honestly a product without good support is no good to me. Anytime something comes up I know I have to figure it out myself or waste time trying to correspond with someone.

    Pros

    Ease of importing data through the data import wizard

    Cons

    Customer support is terrible. The guy that was answering my support tickets was not understanding me and would not call on the phone. I never once talked to him through anything but messages in the ticket portal. My ticket was not resolved for over a month.

    Response from Accounting Seed

    Hi Nichol,

    Thank you for your feedback. We have contacted our Support Team regarding your feedback and we understand they have reached out to you in order to further discuss the ticket that you had submitted. We apologize for the inconvenience.

    Great product but some limitations

    Reviewed on 04/05/2022

    Pros

    The product is very easy to use and very customizable. It easily integrates directly with Salesforce so it feels like you are using one software rather than multiple platforms.

    Cons

    I think there are some limitations or areas of improvement needed. Reporting wise some of the stock reports aren't great and custom reports take time and knowledge to build. I would also like to see improvements made or features added to the customer billings to allow for automation of sending.

    Accounting Seed as a Manufacturer and Wholesaler

    Reviewed on 23/03/2022

    It's been both good and bad, but more good than bad.

    It's been both good and bad, but more good than bad.

    Pros

    Integrated with our business processes easily; Manufacturing setup in Accounting Seed was fairly easy as Manufactured Goods come as a core component of the Product features. Bank Connect makes it easy for A/P and A/R to reconcile and manage their divisions. In general, the fact that we can do Accounting, Sales, and Manufacturing on a single platform has saved us countless $$$ and time.

    Cons

    Lots of unit test failures in the Apex. Opening/Closing Accounting Periods takes forever, even with minimal transactions, due to poorly optimized code.
