When I started farming on my own, I knew I wanted to be well organized. I had heard of different accounting systems, some of which are not well adapted to farming. Traction appealed because it was built for farming. So far, it has not disappointed!

Traction works at my own very small (<500 acres) scale. It allows me to make good decisions throughout the year. I also work in Ag Lending, and I wish that all borrowers could provide detailed reports like Traction generates. The opportunity to trial the software was beneficial - I was more confident making a selection.

No cons to mention, but I would point out that my small operation does not use all of the capabilities of Traction.

In short I want to understand and have the details of my finances and operations at my fingertips and Traction is the only software that we have found that does both. I spent the last 2 years searching for a platform that does this and it does not exist anywhere but here. Other software's do one or the other or if they do both they use a slim version of the finances which doesn't help me accomplish the goals I need for my business.

The best part of Traction so far has been the Accounting Platform, and most importantly the ability to automatically pull in all of my transactions from my various accounts! Once you have your chart of accounts customized to your operation (which took less than a day to accomplish) its as simple as a few clicks to have all my accounting organized. Taxes and my balance sheet next year will be as easy as hitting "print". Next, the mapping part of operations is also very user friendly. I imported my maps from my old software in a matter of minutes and then updated them using the built in tools. It only took me a minute to learn how to use the tools and I didn't even watch a tutorial video. Onboarding with Traction is as simple as three easy steps and is very user friendly, especially for a new user! Tractions Customer Support has been second to none! If I have a question I can likely find the answer and a video explaining it in the Knowledge Center. If I can't find it there the customer support team is only a chat away and very quick to respond.

The operations side is not finished yet, but in the initial release of the operations there is already great functionality, but more is needed to make it better and I believe they are going to deliver that in time.

The most impactful features is the ability to have a financial management software that also can be used for the cash accounting as well. Traction was easy to set up and start. Integration into our business has been seamless so far .

It doesn't really feel like its complete yet. Features are still coming into it which can make it difficult sometimes to get the results we need currently.

The ability to enter transactions into different entities all in the same place is a huge timesaver and having all of the entities financial information together to give an overall picture of the entire operation is a HUGE asset! These two pieces alone were enough to justify making a switch but there are so many more benefits to using Traction! The knowledge base that they bring to the product is tremendous and they have multiple support options to help you with any problem or question you might have. Agriculture has its own unique rules and requirements when it comes to accounting and record-keeping and having a product like Traction that helps me keep track of all of it is a tremendous benefit to my farming operation!

The product is easy to setup and use--much more so than other farm accounting packages I have used. You can be up and running with a few simple steps. The ability to run multiple entities at the same time and have all of the information available either separately or together is a great feature!! Having all the information together in one place makes it much easier to analyze and make business decisions. And the ability to tie your banking information directly to your records is a great time saver for those wanting that option. I appreciate, however, that Traction also has the capability to enter your transactions manually. Having options is what makes a GREAT product!!!

Because the software is new, there are still a few features that I am waiting on to be added. Once the land, equipment, supplies and field record-keeping pieces become available it will be a full service Farm Software package. Not having these pieces right away just keeps me from entering some of my transactions which have occurred.

I have been very impressed with the team and their desire to listen to what farmers truly need in a whole farm management software program. Some of them came from FarmWorks which has been the software that we have used for the last 20+ years, so I know from that they understand how important it is to be able to do true managerial accounting.

Truly made for farm bookkeeping. The online platform. No more software updates or backups. More than one person being able to work in the program at a time. Connecting to our bank accounts so that day to day transactions can be input in a lot less time. Future updates that will include keeping inventories, use of profit centers, and field operations.

This software is in its infancy so its limited abilities is probably the biggest con at this point, but I know from talking to the Traction team they understand the need to be able to manage day to day accounting and also field operations in one software.

Overall, I am very pleased with traction, and I am excited to see how this software package evolves. I have tried many software packages and spreadsheets in the past, and none have come close to the ambitious goal of being the “one stop shop” for Farm management software

Farming software has always been segregated. Some dealt with financial data, and some dealt with field records. And for the most part, we were left on our own for accounting to use generic business software. But Traction aims to finally be the missing link between all these areas. It has an awesome accounting package, mixed with very capable field records, and a polished, completely online package. Also, they are continuously rolling out new features.

Like any new software, even my own spreadsheets, there is a learning curve to adjust to the thought process behind many tasks. Fortunately, Traction provides fantastic support, whether by a live person, or videos, to guide me through the learning process.

From the start of looking for software to replace Farmworks and making the first phone call to [SENSITIVE CONTENT] I have not been disappointed. Everyone I have talked to at Traction has been very helpful and easy to work with. The file movement from my Farmworks to Traction went very smoothly. Any questions I have had there has been videos to help me get my issues solved. Would highly recommend this software.

The Accounting is my favorite. It is easy to use. Just clicking on the transaction to make a change to it or delete it works wonderful. Bringing up a previous transaction is also a plus to not have to reenter all the info, only change the check no, date and dollar amt. Reconciliation is also easy to use. Also use the Farm Ops to record field records. Works well to track what was done on each field such as what was sprayed, what seed was planted on which fields, or tillage that was done and harvest info.

I haven't found a least favorite yet as I have only been a user since January of 2022.

Love the software for its common sense approach and all the support has been great!

So far, I have watched the you tube videos and am in the process of moving over our accounting software to TractionAg. It has been so easy and the support is excellent. Never have had to wait for help and they answer and help explain the "why's" of how it is set up, which helps me remember and just makes sense. Very easy to use so far and their willingness to help me a long has been great.

The only thing would be that not everything is completely available yet, but is coming. But in a way this makes it easier to get it up and going because you understand the basics first. The rest will be fine-tuning and they ask for opinions on how we would like to see it. Was dreading making this switch, but it really has been an easy transition so far.

I have just been using traction ag for less than a month and my only issue is that I wish I would have found it 3 months ago. I really have not found an issue that could not be worked around with the teams help.

The fact that it transfers the Farm Works information so well is great. And the team at traction ag is fantastic at helping and problem solving. I let my accountants look at my information and they were very pleased and that makes me happy.

Because of the programs newness and my short time with using it, I have found things I would like but maybe not gotten into it deep enough to find what I was looking for. From what I have seen so far though, this team will fix any and all issue's that come up

For a program under development, it has been great so far and it is exciting to see new features with each new software update. It is reassuring to know that the company is small enough to listen to customer suggestions.

The customer service is amazing, and the online chat is helpful. The cloud based program is useful for different people to access it from different computers and devices.

Due to the early stages of software development, some of the features such as crop enterprises and payroll are not yet part of the program.

Staff has been very detailed and excellent to work with. They have several videos available to assist in set up, designs and functions of their software. They also will respond very quickly on the chat box or via video conference call.

I really like the ability to quickly enter income and expense items with full data to reflect proper inventory and financial management. Also the ability to link in to our bank accounts and upload invoices and crop settlements, which can easily be revisited and printed at later dates. Revisiting the detailed invoices on equipment repairs comes in very handy in verifying parts installed on equipment.

Traction is working on taking data to the machinery management level that I desire to have, such as filters, parts inventories linked to equipment models that we own. Also maintain equipment records, hopefully can tie into equipment manufacture's maintenance record templates at some point. Then all my records would be in one location.

My overall experience has been very good. Whenever I have came across a problem or have a suggestion the whole team at Traction has been very well receptive. I have no doubt this program will develop into the "go to" program for farmers and managers alike.

It is developing into a one stop shop for all my farms accounting, crop records and payroll needs. Very simple and quick data entry and the support has been awesome. My bank and credit card accounts tied into Traction, with one click of a button the transactions get loaded into Traction. Saves time with data entry.

Traction is what I feel on the ground floor with a huge upside potential. There are some features not available yet but I feel they will get addressed. It is lacking the ability to import and manage different GIS maps and develop precision ag prescriptions and map layers.

Traction has simplified our accounting, field records, inventories and grain storage tracking. by bringing it into one program, instead of multiple spreadsheets.

I can see field by field profit and write a check with just a few clicks.

Adding field records would be better if I could apply to multiple fields at the same time but input a specific amount of acres for each field that was partially covered.

Dashboard view and drill down is awesome! Traction Ag is new and we can grow with them and don’t have to learn it all at once! It is truly built for agriculture and we don’t have to tweak an of the shelf software to trick it to work for ag.

Taking a pic of invoice and ability to drill down in check register to that invoice easily!

Changing from our old software and getting hole farm to commit to changing to something new and different

Ease of use, mobile access, customer support

Being so new, there are times I run into issues that involve software techs to research to help me resolve. It is always timely but can be a pain

It has fit the void in an easy to use ag accounting and management software. Great customer support.

It is easy to set up and easy to use. The software has a good basis for accounting and draws in the field operations and inventory use. The customer support is great.

A work in progress but worth waiting for each aspect that is coming out every couple of months.

Easy to setup and use. Access from any device.

Not all features of Farmworks are available yet. Traction assured me that those features are coming with time.

Easy to learn & use. Support very helpful & always there when you need them.

My only concern is it being cloud-based. Our internet doesn’t always work well & can’t access account when that happens. Would be nice to have program on desktop at all times & have it save to the cloud.

its user friendly and meant for farming. farmers need a software program that ties everything in fromm field to field.

There isnt anything that i dont like about this software.

Exceptional experience. Great product and exceptional customer service.

Generates accurate accounting information useful for making farm management decisions - and easy to use!

I'm looking forward to more features being added to help make farm management decisions.

Customer service had been great to work with. Of they haven't been available right away, we've been able to find a time rather soon to get together and talk.

It's very easy to use and it's accessable from anywhere. I like being able to use different computers from different locations to access it. I really like the idea of being able to use it in the field to record various activities.

No cons yet from my end, as it's in development and the new features seem to be on par with what's needed.

Good experience and they have a knowledgable and helpful team.

I like the ease of use; it's easy to drill down and see the detail when you need to. Also like the crop year based accounting so I really know how that crop year performed; this is way more informative than a calendar year system. Also like that its cloud based; you are not tied to one computer and you are able to open multiple tabs.

It's a young software that does the basic blocking and tackling very well, and even though they don't have every feature today, they are listening well and building new features continuously.

very good

knowledge and support the team there is ready to help

its not fully developed yet, but it will be

It's been very good. Been a good company to work with. Not a corporate company and do not act like one.

The ease of the software. Easy to navigate around. I like the ability to access the program from anywhere and not just your computer. Good customer service

Since it is a newer software it doesn't have all the features of some of the others it does the main accounting well but they are adding new things to it all the time.

Great

Ease of use, had a glitch and it was fixed within 24 hrs. The whole group are very good to work with.

so far nothing we have had a great experience working with Traction
