Accounting Seed vs. Synder

Accounting Seed is a great solution for businesses looking for reliable accounting software. It offers all the features needed and works as expected. In addition, it is not as pricey as many competitors and therefore a great choice. I would recommend it for both startups and established businesses.

After five years of paying for annual service. I attempted to cancel my annual payment on the online portal. I was then billed for the annual renewal. I contacted customer support and traded emails only to get "note that according to our Terms and Conditions, purchases are considered final and non-refundable" and your subscription will be active for the next 364 days. To which I responded, "I forgot just how easily the wrong response can destroy the possibility of future renewal, recommendation, customer retention, customer satisfaction and reviews." UPDATE: After submitting negative reviews, I recieved an email from elevated customer support teammate named "Renata" who asked pertintent questions about my cancelation. She reviewed and made an exception based on our circumstances and adjusted my annual plan to a monthly plan and processed a refund.

• Sometimes when creating a receipt it can't seem to find the company I am searching for in the drop-down, I have to go out to the company and enter from there.
• Some of the accounting reports seem to be limited, though at times this may just be the user! Still learning as I go! But there have been some reports that state I would need to add another partner app to do, which would mean more cost.

Accounting Seed was easy to implement and use without third-party service providers' intervention. Furthermore, the vendor forwarded us a copy of articles and documentation on implementation, customization and integration, which made it much easier for us to integrate it with company API and other external programs.

Easy initial setup

We seldom have had to use their support but when we have, they have been responsive and actually were able to answer our questions in a simple, nontech language. You don't have to be a programmer to talk to them!

I have never used Xero at my current organization, but I used it at Alliance Data before Implementing Accounting Seed. Xero wasn’t updated much during the years that we were using it. Also, Xero failed to integrate with some of third-party applications that we were using. Finally, Accounting Seed was highly navigable, had clean UI/UX unlike Xero.
