## Reviews

### "Best Accounting Software That Money Can't Buy" — 5.0/5

> **Kenneth** | *29 March 2019* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Incredibly powerful, easy to use, totally customizable as your business grows, and you're not locked into someone's proprietary solution.
> 
> **Cons**: It's not mainstream - but that's not all bad.  Plenty of forums out there to guide you.
> 
> I would say that it's 'out of the box' experience is not as smooth or straight forward as some others, but once you get it set up, you have a solid cloud based (or local) solution that can handle every typical accounting transaction you care to throw at it.  This is a solid performer folks.

### "robust system that is customizable" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *16 October 2019* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Creating different Accounts and the ability to assign them to Dimensions is easy.
> 
> **Cons**: There are two sections where the word "tag" is used. You can have Dimension tags as well as account tags. They mean different things, it would be nice if they were different, it takes a while to understand what each tag means.
> 
> My experience is mainly was with the General ledger and most recently with Bank Reconciliation. It is easy to use.
