Activity HD imports data from our EMR software into our accounting program in seconds every month. There is nothing I have needed that it does not do, and dozens of things it does that never dreamed a software could do\! I have worked 45 years in the accounting field and used many different accounting softwares, but this is by far the best ever in every way. There is nothing I have needed that it can not do. > > **Cons**: The things that make it so great and so flexible are also the things that make learning it different from other software. If you expect the same "old software" this is not for you. Because of this, the first couple of weeks it was a little overwhelming but now looking back I can't remember why. Twenty-one months into it's use, I have absolutely no regrets about our choice. > > Reconciling a 50 page bank statement used to take days - now it can be done in an hour. We write a minimum of 200 checks a month to one time vendors every month. This used to take 1 1/2 days a month, now it takes literally five minutes (less if my printer was faster). These are the most professional people I have ever worked with. They are always accessible. They do what the say. They deliver what they promise and more. They took the time to learn my business needs and suggest ways the software can work for us that I never even dreamed could be possible. Activity HD is like a living, breathing thing that changes and grows to meet changing needs. I have never felt "locked in" to a product that is not flexible and can't keep up. This have been, and continues to be, a great experience. The entire support team has a background in accounting and understand. There are no support levels - you get a "Level 3" every time any one them pick up the phone. The implementation experts are just that - experts. They prepare you and stick with you until they decide it time to be turned over to support. I highly recommend Activity HD and nQativ to anyone. ----- ### "Great Product and Even Better Customer Service" — 4.0/5 > **Travis** | *6 May 2026* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The customer support hands down is the reason I would recommend this product. The company has been unbelievably responsive and showed patience through the whole implementation process. Highly recommend, especially for anyone using the Tessitura software. > > **Cons**: Not many cons. It can be overwhelming at first if you're not familiar with this type of software. However, there is no question too basic for the support team to answer. They break down any confusion you may experience in a way that is helpful, constructive, and in a way that doesn't make you feel dumb for not understanding. > > It's been great. Honestly, I wish we had switched over sooner. The implementation was smooth and now we've been using for a while our finance department is way more efficient. ----- ### "Customer Support is outstanding" — 3.0/5 > **Rizzalie** | *11 January 2017* > > Customer support is outstanding, however, there are a lot of features that is not possible in the system especially integration. There is other software who does better which is cheaper. ----- ### "ActivityHD is Excellent\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sallie** | *27 April 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: AccountingWare's customer support team is amazing\! They are professionals always providing excellent customer service\! > > **Cons**: Like learning anything new, it took a little time and practice to become somewhat proficient. After the learning stage, it's very user friendly. > > We are very happy with ActivityHD. This year is our 10th year with them and we hope to always remain a customer. We appreciate the friendly and helpful support every time we need it. ----- ### "AR/AP Accountant" — 5.0/5 > **Victoria** | *3 April 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Activity HD is incredibly user-friendly and a breeze to navigate\! The customer service is very helpful as well. > > **Cons**: Currently, there are no major concerns. However, note that when payments are posted for an invoice, the payment history does not appear on the invoice. > > Overall, my experience has been incredibly positive, and I especially valued the supportive environment. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/32540/activityhd-payroll?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/32540/activityhd-payroll) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
