“One thing that I don't like, is it seems to have a long lag time between the integration with QuickBooks. While I'm customizing reports in Syft I sometimes find things that need to be recategorized within QuickBooks, so I'll login to QuickBooks and quickly make that change.“

### "SUPERIOR PRODUCT! GET SMART-GET SYFT NOW! You will NOT be disappointed!"

October 11, 2023

5.0

SUPERIOR PRODUCT - intuitive, compelling visualizations and ability to customize.SUPERIOR SUPPORT - Friendly, Enthusiastic & Knowledgeable - Ensures Resolution/Education! CLEAR that the support team/others in SYFT have a culture with a clear mission statement that resonates to me - (not knowing what their mission statement is - but this is the energy/message I get from my interaction with support/product development team): PROVIDE COST EFFECTIVE VALUABLE PRODUCT TO ALLOW FOR COMPELLING DATA COMPILATION AND VISUALIZTION TO ENSURE STRATEGIC BUSINESS DECISIONS CAN BE MADE PROACTIVELY ALLOWING FOR STRONGER, SUSTAINABLE BUSINESSES, ENSURING ECONOMIC SUCCESS FOR ALL. PROVIDE PRODUCT SUPPORT AND CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT TO ENSURE BUSINESSES SUCCEED.

Pros

INTUITIVE NAVIGATION/CUSTOMIZATIONVALUE =ADDED DATA VISUALIZATION - COMPELLING GRAPHICSINTERACTIVE/CONNECTED, DYNAMICPRODUCT SUPPORT TEAM - AMAZING!!COST EFFECTIVECONTINUED DEVELOPMENTSYFT CAMPUS - always an opportunity to learn more!Too much to mention in one review - Get the product and see for yourself - you will NOT be disappointed!

Cons

Honestly - there is nothing I can say that I don't like about this product. I would have to dig deep to find something. I can only say I WISH I was better at using - but that is On ME as the opportunity to learn is there, ALWAYS someone available to respond to your inquiry and there is Syft Campus - which has been helpful too.Perhaps there could be some "online boot camp" week long session(s)/education (to make me dedicate the uninhibited time to focus my learning to become an expert user). In a time where online learning/self-service is prevalent, having a cohort with dedicated time together in learning sessions uninterrupted might be a great catalyst to onboarding and becoming an expert user (my ultimate goal).

Reason for choosing Syft Analytics

COST EFFECTIVE AND SUPERIOR VALUE! Love the unlimited users to add/share with. A true limitation for OTHER products that may pretend to be as good as SYFT, and nickel and dime you in every way! I have searched for a FABULOUS, USER-FRIENDLY DASHBOARD/data compilation product for 3 years before I FINALLY FOUND SYFT!

### "Product Review"

October 5, 2022

2.0

Great product, but still needs a lot of work.

Pros

The most impressive feature for me is the advance reports that you can build per client and give them live access to their data. The Data Visualization is on point.

Cons

Many functions, of the product that was sold to us, does either not work or integrate properly. 1 - Syft do not fully integrate with SageOne. (If you make use of different departments & VAT audit reports) Thus, currently we can't send accurate reports to our clients that use SageOne. 2 - We paid a yearly subscription fee which included the Syft audit function, however a few months in we were told to pay additionally for this function. After a discussion with them, they eventually agreed to include the function for the duration of our yearly subscription. This made us rethink to renew our subscription, as the product and the initial features that attracted us to it, has become unaffordable. 3 - We made adjustments on some of our journals in Xero (Changed the descriptions), these new descriptions do not pull trough to Syft. After multiple attempts to refresh the company on syft, we contacted our account manager to help refresh the connection, but the updated descriptions still do not reflect on Syft's reports. 4 - If you use the Live Report Feature and want to go into detail of per account, the dates per transactions are incorrect. 5 - One of the frustrating features is that you cannot refresh multiple companies at the same time. 6 - It is not possible to import budgets in Syft. 7 - The cash flow function does not take the VAT into account.

### "Syft in the eyes of a bookkeeping firm"

September 3, 2021

5.0

Pros

Syft has a seamless link with our accounting software, Xero. No need to be importing files everytime a change is made on the figures. The automation feature is great, it literally cut our time by way more than half. Now all our clients get their management accounts monthly and timely.

Cons

Syft should allow for more data manipulation eg journals or re-allocating of items at report level.

### "Review"

December 8, 2022

5.0

Good.In our accounting project we could use Syft to see how a consolidation is created in real life.In auditing we could see how software could be used to perform analytical procedures

Pros

The audit and consolidation function was both very useful.It helped me to see how times.have changed and how we could harness the power of technology in our everyday lives.

Cons

I think for a first time user it might be a bit difficult to figure out the software,but there is a whole department dedicated to providing training on how to use the software so that isn't a problem

### "Reporting made easy."

August 19, 2021

5.0

Reporting is the backborn of every organization hence producing correct and meaningful Reports is very important to our clients and their stakeholder hence we choose to use syft because its made reporting easy.

Pros

Syft Analytics is a game changer. In a busy working environment like ours, where we serve a large and diverse number of organization, i have found that Syft Analytics has made it easy to produce reports in just a click of a button. The variance column also help me analyse my transactions if they were allocated properly to their classes, and i can drill down to my accounting system and identify transactions making up a certain amount.

Cons

the software can be slow sometimes, cant entirely blame the software, it cold be my internet speed also.

### "Best for small to medium size company"

February 13, 2023

5.0

Overall experience with Syft Analytics is good. The service it provides in this price range is really good. If they introduce an edit option after generating the reports it will help more.

Pros

It is a useful reporting and analytics tool which helps us to run reports in a customized way. It can provide an in-depth analysis of the data we worked with and it can also integrate with other applications/tools easily.The tool is user-friendly and can be used by small and medium-scale enterprises like us.

Cons

There is not much to dislike about this product. It runs a bit slow sometimes but it may be because of my internet speed.

December 9, 2022

5.0

I loved it and I believe everyone in the accounting industry needs to it.

Pros

It was easier for me to navigate and compile all that was required from me.

Cons

It took most of our times as we had to watch video to be able to juggle around it and compile all the statements required.

### "Very satisfied"

August 19, 2021

4.0

Pros

We used to do our management reports using excel and were skeptical about moving to a product we had to pay for. After using it for a few years now we can't imagine not using it. The single cost for unlimited companies is an excellent value for us as an accounting firm as we use it for all of our clients. The reports look very professional and the arrow indicator of increase or decrease on most reports is especially appreciated.

Cons

We used to have many graphs of the financial health of our client's businesses. Syft could still use more as the only one we currently use is the cash flow bar graph. The graphs on the side of the other reports are simply too small to see or use effectively. The refresh data feature is very slow and often gets stuck, requiring a page refresh but this just slows things down a bit, it doesn't make it unusable.

### "Consolidations in real time"

March 16, 2023

4.0

Overall, we are quite happy with Syft and its ability to present a consolidated Balance Sheets and Profit & Loss statements on a consolidated basis and over several periods of time, in real time. We use it regularly for most of our reporting needs.

Pros

We needed a way to report on a consolidated basis in real time. Syft can pull information from our accounting software in real time and perform the consolidation. It has the ability to drill down the information as well which is very helpful and better than many of the other reporting software packages I've used in the past.

Cons

The Cash flow statement doesn't work all that well and often has bugs. We aren't really able to use it in its current form. We hope that Syft builds out the cash flow statement functionality further to present more inline with the requirements of GAAP.

### "Seamless reporting created per your preference "

August 19, 2021

5.0

It has made my reporting tasks so much easier and given each of my clients a sense of individuality through the use of preference chosen design. A happy client means a happy accountant!

Pros

The fact that the design of reports, lay out and preferences can be chosen, these templates can be saved and used for future purposes or other clients whenever needed. The link between Syft and other accounting software in order to synchronize information is effortless and user friendly.

Cons

Forecasting can only be created through importing an excel sheet or through importing from other software. It does not allow a free hand projection that sometimes our clients request as they desire to create this in a specific way.

March 17, 2023

5.0

Customer service is always great and the data aggregated into one tool is priceless!

Pros

The fact that we were able to consolidate all of our sales channels into one report made filing taxes this year super easy.

Cons

For me, the interface could use a little sprucing up. For my my accounting team that is used to staring at blank, bland spreadsheets all day, they found the app very easy to use.

Wonderful support team that have always been willing and able to respond to our issues quickly. The customisation available is fantastic, and it's saving us hours in the creation of reports for our clients.

Pros

I love that it's easy to use, integrates with most common accounting software, and at a glance you can easily see where clients have financial issues. The financial health dashboard is really insightful and the best part is the commentary-driven reports that are available.

Cons

I don't really have anything I don't like at this stage!

### "Accounting student Review "

December 12, 2022

4.0

I absolutely loved Syft analytics, it saved me and my group members alot of time and made the assignment super easy to complete.

Pros

I loved that syft basically does all the reporting that a student may struggle to compile. There are no errors given that information is correctly entered.The syft team provides additional support which makes it easier to navigate the app. As a student I found it very easy to use the app as the features were straight forward and easy to understand.

Cons

I pretty much did not struggle at all with Syft but I wished they had the basic recording narrations so you can just copy and paste without having to repeatedly write almost the same thing.

My experience on a scale of 1 to 10 would be 9, the reason is, it is user friendly and there is support if you need help learning.
