October 20, 2024

5.0

If you are searching for a program to have a complete picture of your business just try to use Accounting Seed you would be satisfied.

Pros

The most point about this program is this ability to go from leads to sales to invoicing within one platform.

Cons

The least thing is this option to reporting custom and at meanwhile Salesforce reporting.

### "HIG Capital Backing Moving Accounting Seed to the Next Level"

February 23, 2022

4.0

I have been working on the Salesforce platform for 17 years and with Accounting Seed for 10 years in accounting for my Legal Funding, Real Estate Rental and Professional Services businesses. It is the ability to leverage the strength of the Salesforce platform that makes the experience strong and the HIG Capital investment and Partner environment that makes the future look stronger.

Pros

In 2021 HIG Capital made a majority investment in Accounting Seed that is moving this native Salesforce application to the next level. This investment has allowed the organization to move beyond an excellent leveraging of the Salesforce object architecture to add the competitive functionality of their more mature enterprise competitors such as Sage Intacct and Oracle Netsuite. Newly release features include Multi-Ledger Consolidation with Elimination Entries, further advancements in reporting. Focusing on the importance of the partner channel has brought much needed integration with Bill.com, Partner Portals and applications. Project Accounting is also been made stronger through a Project Management platform developed by the partner community.

Cons

The Accounting Seed Orders and Entry do not add up to the functionality required in an enterprise resource planning application. One needs to use an outside partner integrated application such as Legendary Supply Chain. The budgeting and commission functionality could still be improved although several partners are stepping up in this area as well.

### "Financial Reporting - big drawback"

August 27, 2025

2.0

If you are considering - I would list out IN DETAIL all pieces you currently have and expect to retain in the Acctg Seed. Our transition was to include 5yrs of history - which only came as P&L level, no detail for drill down - so we will need to retain our QB for another 3 yrs. Key management reports that were supposed to be duplicated are "not possible" in AS.

Pros

Transitioned to AS to streamline since our Transportation Mgmt System is built on salesforce. "Integrated" is overstatement -- however, daily accounting transactions are easier for the accounting team

Cons

Financial management reporting is horrible. No gross profit lines, no cash flow reporting, and only recent capabilities to view financials by cumulative time frames -- a HUGE step back from QB.

### "Difficult at first, but worth it."

December 1, 2025

4.0

Accounting Seed definitely takes quite a bit of time to learn and familiarize yourself with. Even with an accounting background the system can be quite difficult. However, once you get the hang of things, navigation is much easier and the automated tasks can be very helpful.

Pros

I love the customization Accounting Seed offers. Our company has very specific requirements for our reports and the flexibility Accounting Seed provides is able to accommodate to those needs.

Cons

Some of the features seem a bit outdated- specifically the input pages. Oftentimes I find that reports fail to generate which is what I rely on the most.

### "Serious software for any business that needs and wants a comprehensive accounting system"

January 13, 2022

5.0

Very pleased with working with team at AS. I marvel at how they cross from one industry to another with skill. Insurance accounting is very different from traditional accounting systems and i am impressed with how well AS has handled learning and growing in our vertical.

Pros

One we figure out the workflows and nuances with Accountingseed (AS), it is a pleasure to work with. The speed of the software is fast and AS is on top of regular updates to add important and necessary features. We have been a user of AS now for 3 years

Cons

Updates are not always pretty and could be better tested however AS is not deaf to any problems that result from updates or patches

### "Accounting Software built into SalesForce"

August 12, 2021

5.0

We needed a system that integrated with our contacts and programs. We wanted to be able to see what programs a donor had given to along with financial data for those programs. With Accounting Seed working inside SalesForce, all our data, across all departments, is in one place can easily be linked, integrated, displayed, and reported. This allows us to better serve our constituents with accurate data immediately at our fingers via desktop or mobile apps with access anywhere in the world.

Pros

Accounting Seed works splendidly inside SalesForce. You get all the advantages of a product that integrates with all your SalesForce data. No need for imports or exports. Everything is in one place. Employees learn one system and they can work all across the organization. The availability of multi-levels of security allows you to tailor applications to the appropriate person, department, or team. Internal control features and audit trails are securely automated. Backing up your data is simple with just a few clicks. Project managment allow each project to act almost like its own company and integrates well with any other Salesforce data.

Cons

I would like to see more preformatted reports. There are a few in the system but I suspect there could be more that could print directly from the system in a more presentable format. All reports can be exported to Excel. This allows those that know Excel to manipulate the data as only Excel can do. That is nice but requires extra effort to format the data.

Reason for choosing Accounting Seed

It fully resided inside SalesForce and us to have full integration of all our data with web access.

At that time, Blackbuad was designed for an in-office server and did not work well over the internet. It was slow and was not being updated. It did not integrate with our other data. We were looking for a web-based solution that integrated all our data.

### "Great Support"

July 25, 2019

3.0

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.

### "A flexible Accounting solution built for Salesforce users"

May 30, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Accounting Seed has been a mix of strengths and challenges. On the positive side, I appreciate how seamlessly it integrates with Salesforce and it really streamlines our financial data within our CRM, which saves time and keeps things centralized. The system is highly customizable, which has been great for workflows and reports to our specific business processes.

Pros

Accounting Seed has easy integration with Salesforce. The ease of usability has been the standout feature. Accounting seed has helped our team simplify accountancy.

Cons

Limited out of the box reporting. Reporting is basic, users need to build complex reports manually or rely on third party solutions.

May 23, 2025

My experience has been exceptional, it is a powerful tool for managing accounts within salesforce ecosystem. There is a bit of learning curve in the beginning however once everything is set up it becomes reliable and efficient solution.

Pros

Accounting seed has been the most important tool in our company for accounting. It keeps everything at one place which makes it easy. I like the customization of the app.

Cons

Setting up for the first time is time consuming especially for beginners. Some of the reporting can be improved.

### "Accounting Software - Recommended"

November 2, 2023

5.0

My experience has been good and has improved over the years as you start to know more things that you can do, but there have been multiple times that simply had not been great.

Pros

The creation of financial reports it's a very useful tool for monthly closures and the automations that can be built with accounting seed objects

Cons

There are some performance improvements and/or limitations in some objects like Bank Reconciliation, being able to mass post/unpost update some records is not available in all objects too. Overall is a great software but not the easiest to understand at first.

### "Midway between QB and NS "

June 22, 2023

4.0

As a less common system, expect a heavy lift in time and cost for implementation and training. Be prepared to push back when your external support says "that can't be done." Whatever you're trying to push the system to do probably can be done, if you can find someone who's able to figure out how. If you have other SFDC-resident packages, you can probably get them to integrate, but expect to spend big for the custom flows that will be necessary. I wouldn't recommend for orgs any less than 50 employees, but for a growing mid-size company that's not ready for NS or SAP, this is a solid choice that scales well.

Pros

Lives on top of Salesforce, makes for seamless integration with CPQ or other SFDC based packages. Reporting is fairly intuitive for those with SFDC or other cloud ERP exposure. Easy to implement and handle multiple ledgers, departments, cost centers, etc.

Cons

Difficult to make adjustments or changes, or troubleshoot errors, without expensive external support or a seasoned internal admin. AR doesn't include unapplied cash from customers, adding significant overhead to generating accurate agings and statements. Accounting periods and transaction dates aren't locked in sync, which can throw off balances depending on how a report is run.

March 23, 2022

5.0

I've been using AS over 4 years already and it has been an amazing tool for our company, fast, information on hands 24/7 and it allows to audit any financial record we want.

Pros

The most I like is how easy it is to use, it is simple and matches most of our accounting requirements, specially since it is built in salesforce and you might integrate it with anything.

Cons

Sometimes support limites to go to web, even when instrucions on web are great, you might require extra hand to tackle some doubts

July 19, 2022

4.0

Using this within Salesforce reaps huge reward. We can work together with our team spread far and wide!

Pros

The Team is amazing and well versed, a pleasure to work with. Being in DF means access to everything from anywhere!

Cons

The rate of change is touted as a benefit, but in reality is a bug. When your team complains about each new version, you know you have a problem. Multiple releases per year disrupt our org. Opting out is received negatively, and the belief that an org our size can have our team Beta Testing new releases in our sandbox several times a year indicated an unfamiliarity with our work loads. I hope they can stabilize the product and get to a maximum of a large yearly release, because the current "Improvements" are quite disruptive. That being said, I hope they prosper, because the software offers great promise, and a real shot at being the defacto standard for on system accounting in a Salesforce environment.

### "Accounting Seed Opinions"

March 22, 2019

4.0

Pros

Our company has a small amount of employees who all work from home. Accounting Seed is great because it allows all of us to have immediate access to the data and information at all times, and is much more powerful and customizable than QBO. And of course the integration with Salesforce goes without saying -everything is in one place. It is so simple to close an Opportunity, and create a Purchase Order and everything that follows with just a few clicks of some buttons.

Cons

Some features are very complicated and tedious to set-up and implement, like customizing Financial Reports and setting up a Budget for example. The Knowledge Base is helpful to a point, but doesn't seem straight forward at times. Also, the cost per user is too high. We are paying for the convenience of having everything in the cloud rather than the value of the actual product.
