Jeb B.: Hi, my name is Jeb. I'm the owner of Brilliant Expos, and I give Stessa five out five stars. Before Stessa, we had considered and tried using QuickBooks, but Stessa was just a better software for what we needed specifically. We specifically chose Stessa because it's made for real estate investors. And QuickBooks was great, but it wasn't pre-contoured just for exactly what we needed. Stessa was super-easy to get started with. We just input a couple of addresses, a bunch of the details about the real estate and the projects that we were working on, and it was really ready to go from the start. There was a short learning curve. What I would recommend when someone's getting started is just take a few minutes to actually get started. Don't expect it to work from the second you get going. Be ready to input a bunch of information, but once you get going, it'll definitely be worth it over other similar softwares.
