Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • I really enjoy the ease of use of the software and the communication with the team members, specifically [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN.
  • I know that there is a TEAM supporting me, while I still know the name of my main contact person. The platform is easy to use and aesthetically pleasing.
  • Cons

  • Not all of my business accounts can be connected via feed (ie intuit payroll), which requires a drag and drop upload each month.
  • When I confirm those purchases it is usually 30+ transactions and at that point I don't even remember all of them so it takes a while for me to locate receipts. I really dislike that too.

  • Pros

  • Great presentation aesthetics. Great tips on use and preparation.
  • Live Plan was perfect for my needs - it helped me shape my strategic plan and think through my start-up capital requirements and revenue projections.
  • Cons

  • I got stuck at the beginning a little bit with the various summaries.
  • It made using the review feature (to compare projections with performance) more difficult to use.
