Jodi B
Controller
5.0

Jodi B.: Hi there. My name is Jodi. I work at Peter D. Lebowitz Company, and I work as a controller, and I give Sage five out of five stars. I do monthly bank racks for each of our entities, and I enter all the information from my spreadsheets into ACCPAC, and it generates terrific reports, much better than just my Excel spreadsheets. What I like most about Sage Accounting is just that it's so precise and the reports that it generates are just so succinct. Everything is easy to read. Actually that's the most important thing. They're very easy to read, whether it's the trial balance, the balance sheet, the earnings statement. It's just so easy to read. So when I give the reports to my colleagues, it's very clear to them how we're doing in various areas. So I just love that, the ease of it really. It's very easy to enter my information about the companies, the numbers. I enter it, I post it, and it shoots out a great report. I think what I would change about Sage Accounting, if I had to change one thing, I guess the reverse check. There's a lot of steps when reversing a check. Makes it a little bit challenging, but doable.
