I believe that Affirm no longer works with Carta as a result. Every employee’s sell order was accidentally canceled on the day of the equity release.

It doesn't work as well internationally. That's a problem as I need comp data for several countries.

We have been happy with Carta and will likely continue to use them for our cap table management and valuations.

Love how Carta automatically updates me as to when I have more vested options and shows a progress bar as to how far I still have to go for all of my stock options to vest.

Carta, however, was FAR superior to all other options in ease-of-use, accuracy of data, security, rapidity of product development, and ability to scale along with our company.

Customer support is top notch. Chat feature allows you to live chat support team with minimal wait time.

The app for user is great and super transparent and easy to understand.

Easily see all investments with my current company.

Overall, Carta makes it really easy to not only view your holdings, but each individual grant and what has vested. It also allows you to exercise options that are available to you.

The setup is beyond painful. The support staff are incredibly arrogant and everything about your business has to fit around Carta.

The CEO's and law firms that use it seem to be happy with it, as an investor user, I literally cringe every time we get a new stock cert from Carta because it takes so long to do antying.

This product is easy to use and we are very happy with it.

Carta is awful, bottom line. We cancelled our account on November 6th, 2022 but they went ahead and charged us nearly $5k on December 18th.

I love their communications skills aka the emails they send out when I've vested shares.

The commissions on sales are a bit over the norm for a retail brokerage-type program. Especially bad if you have small lot sizes.

I love having an up-to-date Cap Table at all times and being able to model exit and funding round scenarios quickly. Integrated stock ledger and 409A valuations are a plus, too.

When I have issues with this software (which is often), Carta's support team is usually very responsive and will work with me on the issue.

It's so easy to use and see how my shares I have, what they're worth, and it feels really secure.

Overall, it's been awesome using Carta. It's a great tool to manage private equity.

Overall I have had a positive experience with Carta and am glad it exists to easily manage stock options.

I also really like the interactive vesting schedule/option exercise calculator. They are both quite helpful in visualizing stock benefits.

I really like that not only does Carta manage my cap table but that 409A valuations are included in my plan so when we're ready to kick that off I just have to press a button.

It's nice to track my overall equity and individual grants. The best feature is the ability to simply forecast overall share allotments across varying vesting schedules.

C Carta makes it very difficult for one to keep a backup.

Truly painful in every way. Seriously avoid unless you are a huge company and you feel like wasting enormous amounts of time.

Love this to track options, RSUs and shares. Support is also helpful and does its best to answer questions.

I've used Carta through multiple companies and I love how it takes complex legal language and breaks it down for you to simply understand and visualize in its predictive outcomes.

Very seamless and straightforward. Positive experience for end users, and helps feel like the equity system is more legitimate within our company.

I love having everything in one place, and easy to use, purchase and organize all of my grants and vested stock.

Sometime difficult to understand the workflow required to accomplish a task. There are multiple ways to do the same thing, which can leave the user feeling a bit lost at times.

The worst experience with any B2B software company for years.

I have found it a bit difficult to add new users, debt issuances etc. and my customer service rep has generally pushed me toward recordings of user Q&A sessions rather than answer my questions.

Their documentation and blog are very helpful in understanding all the terms and nuance of stock options.

In summary I would say that I am very satisfied with the Paypal service for purchases, payment, especially immediate worldwide. Its clear and noble interface makes the operations pleasant.

I don't like the dispute process for disputing charges for orders not received. I have had many times when i did not receive product or received not of quality product and was unable to get a refund.

What I liked most about this software was definitely the customer service. They were excellent in helping solve my issue and in a timely manner.

Easy to use and acceptable by tons of merchants/sellers. I also appreciate their support, as they have helped me resolves issues promptly.

I love how protective the company is and they are extremely reliable I love them they are just simply amazing.

The two things I hate about PayPal is its account limiting and favoring buyers disputes over sellers. This has promoted so much fraud.

It's super easy use to use. I love all the safety features it has especially protecting my personal information.

I like PayPal you can use it anywhere you can take it anywhere as it's easy access my experience with PayPal has been wonderful.

Additionally, I love the ease of transferring money PayPal provides. It's so simple to use, effective, and secure.

It sucks, too many issues, too poor customer service, not enough accountability with the partnered apps and businesses such as eBay.

I love Paypal because it is so easy to use and super compatible with anyone regardless of where they live.

I dislike that I've been charged a fee when others have sent money to me. When sending a small amount, it stinks to have a fee on that.

I am a big fan of paypal and the fact it gained trust within all major merchants. Would be good if it worked with amazon too.

My overall experience with PayPal is amazing I love them I would rate them an 11 if I could.

Also the great security they provided to ensure safety of our money is excellent. I realy love to use PayPal as my online payment method and highly recommend to anyone without any second thought.

Absolutely love how secure using PayPal through websites and even at the gas station. Super user friendly and will always recommend it.

I like how easily PayPal integrates with all my other business tools, I like its clear and easy to read home page, and I appreciate the tutorials and FAQ.

I like the ease of use, by connecting money between accounts in a reliable secure manner.

My only complaint is the customer service aspect. It's done through an email template so there is a delay in getting answers which is frustrating.

They can freeze your money at any time and you are stuck for months trying to appeal and have them release YOUR MONEY. This can kill your business.

I am so happy my company trusted me enough to acquire this software, it was the best purchase, hands down.

Thanks to PayPal I can receive payments in an easy and secure way, and also I can make payments in the same easy and secure way. And it was very easy to integrate in my web page.

I have to commend the Paypal's customer service they are reachable and easy to communicate. Also what I like about it is they have a mobile application that is very easy to use.

I use PayPal for business, as a payment processor, and personal, for transactions and sending money. Their security is outstanding and the ease of use is very good.

Its interface is excellent and striking. They have many methods to communicate with support, that is a great advantage.

PayPal is easy to navigate even for those who are not good with technology. We most love how secure it is and it gives our staff and customers an ease of mind when sending and receiving money.

But more seriously, I have worries about the safety of my info. Nothing that has been realized, just worries.

Paypal is great as a choice to use for any business. I haven't had any issues with it and I loved it because it integrates with most platforms.
