Overall Satisfaction with Avalara

The Tax Department utilizes Avalara for sales tax return compliance and exemption certificate management.

Pros

  • Accurately files tax returns.
  • Validates exemption certificates.
  • Customer support.

Cons

  • Legal entity management.
  • State tax rate update communication.
  • I no longer have to manage state and local tax rate changes and update them in my systems.
  • Tax return notice tracker and management are great.
Planning ahead and working with internal and external Avalara advisors.
  • Navision
  • Salesforce
  • Zuora
Pretty easy on the Avalara side and more difficult with internal ERP systems.
Well supported and ease of navigation within the software package.
I haven't utilized other software packages for sales and use.
More appropriate for entities that have tax compliance requirements in numerous states. Also if you have tax-exempt or reseller customers.
