So I love that I can white label the platform while having a dedicated team of accountants assigned to my clients. > > **Cons**: I feel like their portal still has room for improvement even after their recent upgrade. One of the worst problems was the difficulty editing the dashboards for your own needs. That was one of the improvements on this last rollout. > > Right now I'm only testing the Botkeeper team on my most important client. They have consistently performed (or outperformed) whenever I had feedback for them. This bodes well for the future when I expect to add at least 5-10 more clients in the future\! ----- ### "Using Botkeeper from its Early Days at Kinnami Software, a Seed-Stage Startup" — 5.0/5 > **Chris** | *14 November 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The best thing about Botkeeper's software is that it is invisible in the sense that it doesn't dictate how you should use it to collect information that it needs, and so it's very easy to fit into your workflow. Historically, Botkeeper had its own Dropbox-style integration, and now it is switching to Google Drive. This means that providing receipts and other information is as simple as putting the digital scan of a receipt into the Google Drive folder. Or if you prefer, you can upload files by hand using the portal. Secondly, their portal provides nice views that show the state of your company's finances. > > **Cons**: Botkeeper is a young company, and so growing pains are painful. The system has undergone several major changes during the 2 years that I've been using it, and those transitions were not completely smooth. However, to date, all problems were successfully resolved and the team really worked to address them, and those problems were rare. > > Botkeeper absolves Kinnami from the drudgery and hassle of book keeping. Basically, all I have to do is ensure the receipts are there, and then all book keeping is handled. This makes filing the annual tax returns less painful as Botkeeper already has all the information the accounting firm needs to create the tax return. At Kinnam, we do not have nor want large teams of people to handle administration. Outsourcing book keeping to Botkeeper is a great way to solve part of that problem. ----- ### "Mediocre platform; mediocre product; mediocre results" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *11 January 2019* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's ok-ish if you don't know anything about bookkeeping and you're on a super super tight budget > > **Cons**: Response times were slow Struggled to get anyone to answer basic questions about my SLA, bill, contract, etc. Regular errors on the GL ----- ### "Saved me money" — 5.0/5 > **Sheryl** | *19 October 2018* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked their flexibility in working with my Quick Books online - my super complicated - incorporation with employees - setup\! I saved over $2000 per month in accounting costs by switching to botkeeper. I'm hoping they don't raise their prices. They are super fast, and able to handle my business accounting which has "unrecognized revenue" calculations to do each month, and everything is in GAAP format "ACCRUAL" based because I was setup to take on investors and sell common stock from an equity crowdfunding fundraise. I would say I love their MANAGEMENT REPORTS\! I love being able to look and see everything in one report and I also love that my books are reconciled and up to date nearly daily - so every time I look it is valid data - SO HELPFUL\! Also - they take the time to teach me how to do things on my own if I am confused about anything. My old super expensive accountants never did that and they were super slow and it was always a point of pain for me. Botkeeper does everything I don't want to do - and they do it fast and accurately. > > **Cons**: I have no complaints, because they are fast and accurate, and responsive for all of my accounting needs. They are highly capable of even the most complicated bookkeeping - I didn't think they would take on my books but have surpassed my expectations. > > I love the management reports and up to date books the most. Also, they respond quickly with anything I need, they are capable with even the most complicated unrecognized revenue reporting, fast, responsive, and nice in their communications. My business is a corporation, and botkeeper has saved us a lot of money. ----- ### "Botkeeper has opened our CAS Capacity" — 4.0/5 > **Christa** | *16 September 2022* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Removing transaction entry from our current CAS Team has been great so they can focus on Financial Statement Review. > > **Cons**: We are still on the original platform anxiously waiting to be upgraded. > > The initial month was bumping just getting familiar with how the processes flow, but now we are seeing a real time savings in our CAS projects. Some bookkeeping projects time has been cut in half. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/80136/botkeeper?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/80136/botkeeper) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
