Tally Prime for all accounting needs

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: My overall experience with tally prime was good as a practising chartered accountant, I majorly provide services to small and medium size entities and it is best suited for them.

Pros:

Tally Prime is known and trustable accounting software which is being used by moat of the businesses. Its best suited for small and medium size businesses. User friendly and easy to use. Provides various final analysis reports in easy to understand format. This is budget friendly as small and medium businesses cannot invest in high rated softwares. It also provides multi user working and data sharing option. It also provides feature of accounting of applicable taxes such as GST, TDS etc. Provides inventory managemant facility to users. Overall a good accounting software with all required features, easy to use and in budget too.

Cons:

Does not provide specialized financial reports. Not compatible with cloud compounding, data mining or other artificial intelligence features. Does not provide auxiliary software service such as payroll, pos etc. Sometimes it is complicated go work in multiuser option.

TallyPrime honest Review for 2+ year user

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: Overall, TallyPrime is a comprehensive and user-friendly accounting software that provides a variety of functions to assist businesses in properly managing their money. Its user-friendly design, multi-currency capability, and robust reporting capabilities make it a useful tool for enterprises of all sizes. However, some users may consider the lack of interaction with third-party programmes and the lack of an integrated payroll system to be limiting limitations. Furthermore, some users have observed speed concerns, especially when dealing with big volumes of data.

Pros:

TallyPrime is a robust and user-friendly accounting software that provides a variety of functions to assist businesses in properly managing their money. TallyPrime's simple and user-friendly design, which allows users to accomplish difficult financial chores with ease, is one of its greatest and most popular aspects. Another important feature is its support for different currencies, which enables organisations to effortlessly handle and track numerous currencies while reducing financial risks connected with currency changes. The "General Ledger" component of TallyPrime is the software's backbone, giving an accurate and complete record of all financial transactions, while the "Profit and Loss Statement" and "Income & Balance Sheet" features offer vital insights into a company's financial performance. The "Budgeting/Forecasting" and "Cash Management" tools assist firms in planning and preparing for the future.

Cons:

While TallyPrime is a strong and user-friendly accounting software, it does have several limits and features that may not be suitable for all users. One such disadvantage is the absence of interaction with third-party programmes, which can make data transmission between TallyPrime and other software difficult for enterprises. Another disadvantage is that TallyPrime lacks an integrated payroll system, which may be troublesome for organisations who must manage employee payroll. Some users have also complained about the programme being sluggish or unresponsive at times, especially when working with big volumes of data. Lack of mobile compatibility can also be a barrier for firms that need to access financial data on the go.

TallyPrime - In the Age of Cloud Solutions

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: TallyPrime is easily recommendable to small businesses and accountants. Although there is a learning curve for using shortcut keys, it becomes the best feature with long term use. It is easy to set up, and adding client data couldn't be easier. Data is secure as it operates in backup files. You may have to use another cloud based solution to raise customer invoices as there is no customizability when it comes to bills. And honestly, it is not very interesting to operate. It looks dull and accounting can seem even more mundane than it is. It is still widely used in India, and the pricing is better than most. Recommended.

Pros:

The most loved feature about this software is that you do not need a mouse to operate it, yes that is the best feature, that it can be used with only a keyboard as shortcuts are its forte. I wish other cloud based software had this ease of use.

Cons:

There is no customization when it comes to invoicing. We use a different cloud based bookkeeping application for raising customer invoices.

Comments: I would say Tally Prime is not only famous for India's Accounting Software but also global level too. I have worked on various Accounting Systems but Tally is something unique software, That's why we have also named our Tax Firm i.e Unique Taxfin Solutions.

Pros:

I am Professional Tax Consultant and Running my Small Practice since 2020 (After Covid Pandemic). Tally Prime is India's best Accounting Software. Now I can easily Manage my all Accounts, Track Receivables and Smartly Raise Professional Invoices from Tally Prime. This Software helps me a lot to in GST Compliance and to get accurate scenario of my business.

Cons:

Yes, I would recommend to Tally Solutions to get back function of Schedule-3 of Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss Account for all Public and Private Limited companies. Whereas in Tally ERP.9 we used converted our Financials easily as per Schedule- 3 of Companies Act, 2013. So in Tally Prime this function is missing.

Pros:

Anyone can learn it with a little practice. It is primarily appropriate for small-scale businesses.

Cons:

Now that tally has been in the market for more than 3 decades, it must perform in accordance with the current market conditions. Need to handle large company accounts, add advanced features, improve graphics, and provide high-end customer support. Tally prime requires more compatibility than other accounting software.

Extremely good accounting software, if you have an accountant

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: As an accounting firm, Tally was perfect if we had the entire work of the client's administration. However, when a portion of the work is shared with the client, there is a huge pushback from non-accountants. This make it's deployment very hard due to rejection by end users.

Pros:

The database design and it's function are almost perfect. Everything works. The reporting and audit trail in Tally are second to none including many top players in the industry.

Cons:

The UI is extremely unpleasant for non-accountant (and for some accountants as well)
