"TaxCloud: The Ultimate Game-Changer in Tax Compliance – Seamless Onboarding & Unmatched Support!"
What do you like best about TaxCloud?

I can't speak highly enough about TaxCloud! From start to finish, their onboarding process was seamless, and the user-friendly, intuitive portal made navigating the platform a breeze. It’s an absolute game-changer compared to my previous experience with Avalara.

What truly distinguishes TaxCloud is their extraordinary customer service. Whenever I had a question or needed assistance, their team was always prompt, professional, and attentive, making me feel valued as a customer. It’s rare to find a company that not only meets expectations but consistently exceeds them with such personalized care and support.

Additionally, their pricing is incredibly competitive, offering an exceptional value for the level of service they provide. For anyone seeking a reliable, efficient, and customer-centric tax compliance solution, TaxCloud is the way to go.

I also want to give a special mention to Sarah Richardson, who has been an absolute standout during onboarding. Her expertise, dedication, and attentiveness have made the entire process even more smooth and enjoyable. Sarah is truly the best point of contact to guide you through every step. I wholeheartedly recommend TaxCloud, and Sarah in particular, for anyone looking to simplify and elevate their tax compliance experience! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TaxCloud?

TaxCloud is like that perfect cup of coffee—smooth, reliable, and without a single thing to complain about. If I could find something to dislike, I’d probably be looking too hard! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sales Tax made easy"
What do you like best about TaxCloud?

We have been with Avalara for many years and the cost continued to go up at astronomical rates and the service was mediocre at best. I shopped several other options and decided on Tax Cloud. The swap was seamless, onboarding a breeze, and customer support is unmatched. 8 months in and and happy we made the move. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TaxCloud?

The only negative was our pricing was lowballed and we have had to increase our plan multiple times even though I provided all necessary information/order count etc for our initial quote. Still much less than Avalara! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great fit for our growing business"
What do you like best about TaxCloud?

The TaxCloud team was very pleasant to work with. Implementation went smooth with our payment processor Stripe, and WooCommerce. We chose tax cloud because while we handle our only state nexus in house, we have been worrying about keeping track of nexus in other states as we grow with our 3 entities. TaxCloud seemed to be the best option for the price and so far it's been great to get it setup for 2025. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TaxCloud?

All sales tax products seem to be very expensive. Even with TaxCloud our owners were concerned about the price. However, through enrolling mulitple entities we did receive a better deal. I do wish their implementation rep followed up with us a couple more times before go live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We have used several other services, taxcloud is thus far the best."
What do you like best about TaxCloud?

We've used several sales tax compliance services, but none come close to the reliability and affordability of TaxCloud. Their integrations with our software are very quick and straight forward to set up, and their service is far cheaper than other options we've tried (by several orders of magnitude in some cases). TaxCloud has been a game-changer for managing multi-state tax compliance efficiently and cost-effectively. We have a collection of over 70 stores, and nexus in 31 states, so trying to manage compliance ourselves was an absolute nightmare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about TaxCloud?

"Corporation Sales Tax Assistance"
What do you like best about TaxCloud?

TaxCloud is always available to help, whether it be by email or by phone. I have worked directly with a few agents and all have been willing to look into whatever needs we may have. I took over a new role within my position and was needing assistance where TaxCloud stepped in to help with that learning curve. Rianna P was helping assist me with a project and then Ginia Hines has especially been helpful going above and beyond with all my other needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Customer Service"
What do you like best about TaxCloud?

The customer service team has been stellar (I've worked with Rianna, JT, and Melanie) - not only do they answer the phone or call back in a timely manner, they are also available by email, which is hugely appreciated. Making clients feel valuable, and their concerns a priority is a big deal - TaxCloud has always done this, and each team member has come across as sincerely eager to solve any issues that arise.

"Simple Tax Calculation"
What do you like best about TaxCloud?

Ease of use. Once you are set up you do not have to deal with the complicated tax laws with each individual state. Being a small business owner our time is extremely valuable since we are wearing so many hats to make our business run. Without tax cloud I don't think I could handle having a website that sells to the entire country. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TaxCloud?

Cost has gone up but it is still worth it if you are selling goods or services to different states through the US. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
