The platform is highly reliable, continuously updated with changing tax regulations, and integrates well with various accounting and ERP systems. > > **Cons**: What I liked least about Avalara is that, despite its strong automation capabilities, the platform can sometimes feel complex and not very intuitive for new users. ----- ### "Great Resource and Saves Time" — 4.0/5 > **DeAnna** | *13 February 2025* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: They file the returns for you. Saves lots of time to focus on more analysis. Upload tool is easy to use. > > **Cons**: With Louisiana being a difficult state and where we do most business, they don't have many experts in this area especially with Direct Pay Permits and creating Entity Use Codes especially when new jurisdictions are added. There are alot of reports that do about the same thing just maybe a little tweek so sometimes trying to find the right one is hard. > > Overall, it have been good. There isn't any other software that does what they do as good as them. The TTRUS is the best and an amazing resource. I just think the support is lacking a little to get a straight answer on more difficult questions. ----- ### "Avalara keeps delivering" — 5.0/5 > **Ananie** | *19 March 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: they cover all of our sales tax needs regardless of complexity and address any issues in a timely manner > > **Cons**: no issues with the platform and they also are proactive in ensuring no friction even arises throughout the service > > Smooth processing of our sales tax returns for all of our clients and a solid platform that evolves constantly to match the changes in the field ----- ### "Great product helping us to stay compliant" — 4.0/5 > **James** | *20 December 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is an easy to use tool that integrates seamlessly with other accounting systems to help manage sales tax. It gives me confidence that we are staying compliant without having to review every single transaction as they occur. It is very low cost for the amount of value that is provided. > > **Cons**: The communication can be off base sometimes. There can be several false positives of sales tax nexus that you are alerted to that I haven't quite found a way to configure. > > Overall, it has been a good product, with great customer support. They have excellent professional advisors to navigate the world of sales tax compliance, and the system is very easy to use for users of any experience level. ----- ### "Quality APIs for sales tax processing and a good support team - when you can reach them." — 4.0/5 > **Justin** | *13 January 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Transitioned all our state sales tax calculation processing over to Avalara and have been impressed with their customer service team and the calculation APIs. > > **Cons**: Our account manager changed multiple times in the first few months and has since stabilized. Getting support to respond to tickets was also slow at first. Both have improved. > > Use them for sales tax transaction processing - the calculation and overall NEXUS calculations. They helped get us setup and gave a bit more hand-holding then we expected which was good. ----- Page: 1 / 15\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/125770/avalara?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/125770/avalara) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
