Great customer service, on boarding was easy - it's a total set it and forget it (and rest assured you don't have to worry about it) kind of service. They make helpful recommendations to keep you as hands off as possible. Overall, highly recommend.
Customer service is great - our account rep always gets back to us in at most 24 hours and always with helpful answers or information.
I wish tax filing (sales tax and income) was included so I could use Bench for everything.

Bench helps me stay on top of my bookkeeping and know that my "i"s are dotted and "t"s are crossed.
I like how simple it was to connect my bank accounts as well as third party payors (eg. paypal, stripe). The interface is intuitive to navigate and uploading receipts using my custom email is a nifty trick!
I wish linking to Bench Tax or having some sort of tax center was a bit more seamless.
Hi, Scott! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that you're finding our interface user friendly, and that your team has been able to help you stay on top of your finances!

I use it because I've already paid for the tax return to be filed with them for 2022 and don't want to have to pay twice to have it filed. I will never use them again for a tax return and feel their ability to offer this service should be revoked as I have never worked with a more unprofessional tax service.
After months of back and forth with their accounting team I was finally put with an account manager who knows what they are doing and can communicate effectively
They are incapable of filing an accurate tax return. It is now August and they are still figuring out how to file my 2022 return. Each time they send anything over there are multiple errors they need to fix. Their response times are abysmal and their team has little to no knowledge about actual tax compliance and filling.
Hi Amber, thank you for taking the time to continue to share your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear about your experience and are currently looking into it. A member of our Client Success team is in active communication with you regarding this situation, and if you have any additional questions or concerns, please let us know.

I LOVE it so much!! I wish we would have started using this from the start with our business.
Bench has changed our business for the better! Having all of our books from month to month in one place is GAME changing! My favorite part is the real time look at the health of our business because our books are now done monthly. I can be confident that we'll never be behind! Which helps us make better business decisions!
When I was first new to Bench and terms like "balance sheet" and "profit and loss" I wished there was a hover by where you click on them at the top that gave a quick description of what each meant.
We're thrilled to hear this, Ashley! We've passed your glowing words to your bookkeeping team, who will be equally as thrilled.

I love it. Bench tracks all expenses and the team communicates regarding expenses in question and suggest "expense categories."
I love how user friendly the software is. Everything is easy to upload and the team is able to communicate with you and ask for documents or ask questions.
I have no complaints about any aspect of the software. Very satisfied overall.
Hi Veronica, we're so happy to hear you're loving how user-friendly our software is, and how communicative your team has been! We're excited to keep providing the support you need so you can continue to grow your business!
