"Suralink Enhances and Simplifies Audit Evidence Collection Process"

Kommentare: Overall we've really enjoyed using Suralink and recommend it to all. Support is great too. Easily add licenses as needed.

Vorteile: Gone are the days of having a DRL or PBC that you manage in an Excel spreadsheet over e-mail or in a Dropbox, Box, or Sharepoint. Suralink does it for you with individual line items for each request, easy drag & drop to upload files, easily download all or just new files, track status, assign owners to requests, make requests private, and more. Can be used for any audit or advisory project where you need evidence from the client. Pay per firm user. Storage is unlimited, client engagements are unlimited.

Nachteile: Suralink is still developing new functionality. Just released some new APIs that should help. Security only has 2 levels: Staff or Manager.

"Best PBC Request/File Share Site I Have Used"

Kommentare: Exceptional. I've used a few different PBC request/file share sites and none of them have come close

Vorteile: Very simple to use, the client view is just like the audit team view so I can walk them through the site, easy to upload, has almost every feature we were looking for, and they are constantly upgrading based on my feedback

Nachteile: No setup to send automatic status updates to clients throughout an engagement. Must remember to send them manually

"By FAR one of my favorite accounting tools"

Vorteile: What is NOT to love about Suralink? It makes it incredibly simple to have my clients upload documents that we need, and that the whole team can access the documents in one place, instead of CCing each other on group emails, or forwarding audit support. It also is very helpful in that it tracks who uploaded specific documents and when, as that has helped our team more than once prove that something a client was saying was incorrect, and we had actual evidence to support it. Thank you Suralink team!

Nachteile: Our firm had an issue with the way Suralink was rolling the documents from year to year, which caused hours of headache once I'd discovered it. We have thankfully since resolved the issue.

"Suralink: Wiss/WEST Growth"

Vorteile: It works. I do not have experience with other software's so not certain how to compare. It would be great if it could integrate with iChannel

Nachteile: I work for WEST Growth, LLC which is a subsidiary of Wiss and Company, LLP. I do not have any other experience with secure portal except for Suralink so I am not sure how useful my opinion is, however, I have several clients who complain about the UI. Basically, it is not very straightforward/learning curve involved.

"Efficiency and Clarity"

Kommentare: I am all in on this app. My clients are appreciating it too.
Efficiency on our side and theirs is up.

Vorteile: I really like the ability to go in, as an audit manager, and get an idea of the status of the audit is. I can see how responsive the client is. I can see how responsive staff is being. This allows me to focus on my attention on the clients that are being responsive. This is very important during busy season. I am constantly in Suralink during busy season, even if staff is doing the interacting with the client. I am also quickly finding the power of the status reports that are sent out to the client and I am beginning to only send communication to the client through the status report function rather than email from Outlook.

Nachteile: The process of switching from one engagement to another takes one or two steps more than I would like. Maybe having a tool/navigation bar on the side could help.
