### "Simplistic but Powerful Tools for Accounting Firms"

October 16, 2020

5.0

It has increased productivity within our firm, and also allows us to see how much time we are spending on each client, to accordingly adjust the retainer fees they are paying. It also allows us to pinpoint clients that we have issues with time-wise, allowing us to analyze ways to become more efficient.

Pros

Simple Design - the design of the menus makes this easy for every employee to get used to quickly, which is important as it decreases the time needed to explain the in's and outs, and allows us to focus on our clients accounting work.

Cons

Reports - the reports are good for the value (what you pay for), and I know there will be updates in the future. However, being able to see a dashboard of the clients along with customizable columns of what they are updated through for each category of work would be amazing (books/records, sales tax, payroll, tax return, tax planning etc.)

### "Great Product for organizing and documenting processes and workflow"

September 7, 2021

5.0

The dashboard shows exactly where in the process each client is in an easy-to-read format. Also, setting up the automatic reminders to clients with a checklist of things you need from them comes in very handy for those clients from whom you need documentation to begin their books. Cuts down on time spent having to remind them via email each month.

Pros

Financial-Cents is easy to use, intuitive and well organized. They have a nice library of short videos explaining some of the features and setup instructions as well. I am finding that documenting my processes for each client is a big help.

Cons

It does all the basics very well, but there are a few "nice to haves" that are missing. Good news here is that Shahram is very interested in feedback and is constantly evolving the product to include user suggestions. No point deduction here because I am confident the missing items will be here shortly.

Reason for choosing Financial Cents

Ease of use and pricing.

### "Pleasantly Suprised"

June 2, 2022

5.0

I was using CCH Access, and I was hesitant to start using FC. I was pleasantly surprised, it is so much easier to use, and my team is very happy that we made the switch.

Pros

The Workflow feature. I'm able to view the projects easily, and sort it.

Cons

The Time Tracking is not that robust. It a small icon on the top, and I keep on forgetting to turn it off when I finish a project.

### "Create Accounting Services"

August 16, 2021

5.0

my overall experience with FC is positive. The \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] reached out to check on me which was cool

Pros

It was easy to use and has a clean setup. I really like that FC is easy to use

Cons

I think the software should come with a 30 day free trial to get the full use. Clients don't respond timely enough to really get the benefits of the software within 15 days.

### "Financial Project Management Software"

February 5, 2021

4.0

Pros

I chose Financial Cents as the project management software for our accounting firm because we were looking for the ability to have recurring tasks customized for each client without having to copy or duplicate each project every month.

Cons

I would like to be able to navigate easier. As it stands, you have to go back to the menu bar each time you want to switch modules or go back to the previous screen. I would also like to see a mobile and desktop app.

Reason for choosing Financial Cents

It was built especially for the financial industry, was visually appealing, and the price was comparable.

We needed the recurring feature without having to create a separate project for each client then copy it month over month for processing.

I am so excited to onboard this new app to my company for all my staff to use, it will make life easier and is very helpful!

Pros

Easy to use work flow management tool, all my staff love it as its easy to understand and efficient.

### "Works Very Well"

January 9, 2024

5.0

Pros

It's easy to use and get the hang of using while also being robust and containing a goodly amount of features. It's also very inexpensive for what's included. Integration with emails and being able to create a project directly from an email is a great feature.

Cons

There are still some features and integrations that are not yet added.

### "An easy to use accounting practice management software, perfect for small accounting companies!"

October 22, 2020

5.0

Pros

It is straightforward and easy to use, with really helpful training videos and excellent customer service. CRM data integrates with QBO to ensure client data is up to date. Although the software is relatively new, there are new features and tools being added all the time.

Cons

Overall it is a great system. There are small niggles such as not being able to add a task without first creating a project, however I'm sure these will be addressed in time.

Salesforce had too many bells and whistles for our company and was very expensive for the functionality that we used. Financial Cents offers everything we need at a lower cost.

### "Almost perfect!!"

June 27, 2022

4.0

Pros

The software is cheap, easy to navigate and setup for first time users

Cons

One of my least favorite features is how FC is how much watermarked FC is when it comes to the client side. I need the software I am using to be in the shadows, like behind the scenes when I interact with my clients. Unfortunatlely all emails and communications from me to clients are labelled with FC logoes and texts all over which is not good as my Firm is playing behind the scenes

### "Amazing !! "

January 17, 2024

5.0

Pros

I really enjoyed the easy of the integrations! It was so easy to just plug in Adobe and Quickbooks Online. I also like that it has project management for internal ( my team) as well has having the client task lists. I really like that clients don't necessarily have to make an account to upload.

Cons

I would say I do wish a few more things were in house rather than integrations.

### "Game Changer!"

April 1, 2021

5.0

So much wasted time is now a thing of the past. Financial Cents has made me more efficient and allowed me to take on extra clients without the extra pain.

Pros

Before Financial Cents I was tracking project status in a notebook - highly inefficient and easy to have errors. Now I have a lot more free time as FC reminds clients of tasks, syncs my time with QBO and keeps track of product status. It was relatively easy to set up and is pretty much perfect for me. Thank you!

Cons

Honestly, the only feature "missing" for me now is the ability to edit which client I bill to after tracking time. Not a big deal and I'm sure it will be an option in the future. They are constantly adding features and taking feedback from users. I'm impressed!

Pros

Financial Cents has been a great time saver and has helped my accounting firm organize and automate document collection from clients which used to be a huge pain.Highly recommend this to all accounting firms!

I don't see Canada-specific templates for tax returns - hopefully, these will come in the future.

### "What I have been searching for!"

May 20, 2019

5.0

Workflow efficiency, massively reduced time spent going over project/task status, no more team meetings (!) that waste time, quick KPI review for added client value, and daily use for focus on what's due/coming due.

Pros

The ease of use, automation (recurring projects), workflow assignments, notes within projects, percent completion bar for quick assessment on project/task status, workflow paired with a KPI functionality that automatically pulls from QBO, notes inside CRM and much more.

Cons

Limited KPI printable reports BUT I know this is coming in the future.

### "Financial Cents Makes Sense"

June 26, 2020

5.0

The business problem we are solving with Financial Cents is two fold. First, we are using the tools, like "Comments" to better our internal communications. Second, we are using the project dashboard to ensure that we are not late on projects and that no project falls through the cracks.

Pros

The feature of "Comments" inside of a project has allowed our firm to increase our internal communications making us more efficient.

Cons

On the project dashboard, you see all assignees to a project not just the active assignee. Multiple people could be assigned certain tasks inside the same project and it would be nice if on the dashboard we saw only the assignee that needed to complete the next task.

Reason for choosing Financial Cents

Financial Cents provides us the tools we need to be more effective and provide a better service to our clients at a reasonable price.

November 18, 2020

Support has been good and it is constantly adding new features. Support is very responsive and so is their facebook group. There are lots of feature being worked on and most are on my wishlist.

Pros

Client task, auto reminder and built in templates

Cons

There is not a feature that I like least about. The company is young and it is constantly adding new features so there are items on my wish list that does not exist currently but should be added soon
