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.

    Our accounts receivable and payable tasks are much easier since changing to Accounting Seed. Our reporting capabilities are much improved over our previous software.

    Pros

    This software has very robust capabilities. It's good for businesses that have complex operations. It works very seamlessly with Salesforce.

    Cons

    Their customer support could be better. I wish I had a dedicated point of contact when I have questions. I also wish I could pick up the phone and talk to a person instead of having to create a case and wait to get emailed back days later.

    We've had issues on and off using the program since going live in January 2019, however, AccountingSeed Customer Support has helped us through all of those issues. They've even done some customization for us as a courtesy. I've been working on a custom template (with Conga) for months now and the fields I need on the form were not available to us. CSR with AccountingSeed helped me today with these custom fields; he added them as a courtesy and also sent me a video on how he did this. VERY helpful to have in the future.

    Pros

    My favorite feature is being able to Clone repeat transactions; vendor invoices and journal entries. The Bank Reconciliation is a breeze. Submitting a Ticket for assistance is very convenient. I get an email within a few hours with a solution.

    Cons

    My least favorite features are the Financial Reports and AccountingSeed-created Forms. The reports we run are very different than what AccountingSeed offers. We've found a way to make it work by exporting to Excel, updating fields, adding/deleting, etc. Another feature is the various forms that AccountingSeed created for us; Purchase Order, Packing List and Billing. When we first started using AccountingSeed we found out they didn't have Sales Orders (order confirmations). We had to purchase another App (Conga) who created the Sales Order form for us. I'm currently working on a new Purchase Order template with Conga. The issue I have with the Billing form is that is says Billing. A lot of our customers comment, asking for the Invoice number. It's just a terminology issue; billing vs invoice. We will be creating our own Invoice template with Conga as well.

    Reasons for Choosing Accounting Seed

    We've used SalesForce since 2009. We were duplicating information about orders in SalesForce, and then creating the order in our separate accounting system. Now we use AccountingSeed with SalesForce and it deletes a lot of the duplication we were doing before. All the information is in one place; SalesForce, and AccountingSeed pulls from those records.

    Reasons for Switching to Accounting Seed

    We chose AccountingSeed because it works well/integrates well with SalesForce.

    Our overall experience was good. We transitioned from Quickbooks to Accounting Seed and it was a major transition, but the accounting seed team worked with us to make sure it went smoothly.

    Pros

    We chose accounting seed because it integrates with Salesforce and it was the only Accounting software available at the time that could fully integrate within our platform. We also have a high number of credit card transactions that we have to reconcile each month and liked the Bank Direct Connect functionality.

    Cons

    There were some limitations within the software, but if feel with each update, the Accounting Seed team works to offer updates and solutions to key issues.

    I have relied upon AccountingSeed support quite heavily. If I research what I need on their great website, and then concisely ask finish questions, I have great responses and I have had tremendous help that I have heavily relied upon throughout the three years of using AccountingSeed.

    Pros

    The robustness of the software is admirable. Once it is understood, the details of all transactions are right there. The really great feature is that our sales department can help with the data entry and timing of the billings.

    Cons

    It is not really a fault of the software, but I didn't have any training on reporting. The reporting is robust but I feel because of its flexibility, it is crucial to have up front training in order to know how to obtain the information needed.
