Great close management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Floqast makes it easy to track all the deliverables of the close process and keep everyone in the process connected. It really helps with collaboration too. It's great having review controls for journal entries and reconciliations all in one place. We are also starting to work with their Remind product to help automate some of our close steps, which expect to help reduce close time. We can also share access with our auditors so they can review whatever support they need during audits. The Floqast support team has been helpful and I like their short educational videos that help quickly get up to speed on different features. It's very easy to use and implement.
What do you dislike about the product?
While there is a calendar view at a high level of financial statement areas, I would like to see a calendar view for the checklists. With many moving pieces in our processes, it would be helpful to visualize in a calendar view so we can look for efficiencies and dependencies more easily. The data is already there so I'm sure this is something Floqast can add in future updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Floqast keeps us organized and on schedule. We can make sure all required controls , tasks and reviewed are tracked and nothing falls through the cracks. As a leader, it's easy for me to view how my team is doing and any issues we are having with the close.
Having all monthly and quarterly tasks in one place is invaluable.

What do you dislike about the product?
-For non-close workflow, it is difficult to tie a document in a documents folder to a checklist item. (you can attach it directly to the checklist item, but then its not visable in the Documents Folder. I feel like a detailed linking methodology or tagging could be really useful (kind of like your FQ# system for close).

Reduces administrative burden for keeping track of close tasks and reconciliations. Integrates well with Netsuite ERP.
What do you dislike about the product?
Does not provide feature to open files up in Excel, or restrict access to opening up things in Gsheet (since incompatible excel formulas may be corrupted when opening up in Gsheets). Limited project management functionality (although this seems to be a new feature offering).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were looking to address challenges of keeping track of reconciliations, clearly delegating reconclition responsibiliites, ensuring timely compliance with reconciliation and chekclist items, having a central repositary of checklist items, and monitoring our close.

We have moved the entire practice workflows and client activities to FloQast
What do you like best about the product?
Product development actually listens to their customers to continuously enhance the product. Secondarily, the functionality has been great for our use case.
What do you dislike about the product?
The system limitation whereas we can only have a certain amount of entities per log-in. That has caused multiple issues with our staff.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem the firm had was determining what work was needed vs. who was doing the work. There was no transparency on the work being done nor when it was being done. There were instances that our staff hadn't done any work on clients for months.
Accountability, Communication, and Efficiency - All so we can focus on the interesting projects
What do you like best about the product?
Without Floqast, we would still be struggling to complete our annual audit in a timely manner. Now our PBC is complete before the auditors arrive and our initial selections are completed within the week requested.
Monthly close is so much faster. We have eliminated late entries and keep moving other entries earlier in the month.
Reports to senior leaders are accurate and timely.
The Floqast team is responsive and asks great questions. We have seen improvements over the years like dependencies and attachments to check lists that keep everyone on the same page.

What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of emails are sent to us that noone really looks at. Some folks who have only a few items forget to login because of all the noise from email. We just suggested a connection to "to do's" in outlook or maybe something of that manner.
Really there isn't a lot we don't like though.

Business Outsourcing Accounting Manager
What do you like best about the product?
FloQast is a fantastic software for month closes processes and for overall workflow management. I have been using it for almost 5 years and every year they continue to add new features to streamline processes. If you use a software that connects directly (like NetSuite, QBO, or Intacct among others) then this is the absolute #1 software to use. It is more flexible than something like Blackline, but with features that they are adding (like journal entries pushed to the accounting software) I feel like FloQast is closing any gaps while maintaining its flexibility on workpapers that I feel works well for small to larger mid-market companies.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside of being so innovative and constantly adding features is that some features can be a little buggy at first (never for long) and sometimes features can get updates when you don't expect it. They always have a pop up to inform on new features or changes as they are released.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
FloQast is first and foremost a top notch month close management software, but it has been improving to allow you to use it as a general workflow management software as well.
