Great product!
Overall: It's been pretty good. I used a similar product in my previous job so the adaption period was minimal. Pros: Ease of use. The system is intuitive for first time users. It requires limited training and offers new recruits the opportunity to hit the ground running with their account reconciliations. Cons: Potential slow processing times - It takes time sometime to upload and to view uploaded documents sometimes.

ART SKYSTEM
There has been a slight learning curve, but the experience has been good overall. I am pleased with the overall process. Pros: It is easy to use. I have found there was only a slight learning curve, so it was not difficult to use. Cons: I have not found anything I do not like at this point. It is somewhat different from what I was used to, but not so much it made the process difficult.

ART Review
I've enjoyed using ART for our monthly reconciliation process. I have also enjoyed that auditors have the ability to access the recons through ART as well. Pros: Paperless reconciliation and now being able to attach the documents by dropping in the file instead. Cons: Not a big fan of the layout of the recons, could be separated better. Not being able to edit the entries and having to close it out and redoing it with the updated information. Would prefer accounts with no change in balances didn't go directly into the prepared status.

Skystem Feedback
Overall, I enjoy my experience with Skystem. Just wish it had more capabilities around reporting. Also, wish the dashboards were updated and refreshed. Pros: The simplicity of the product is very nice. Not overly complicated. The interface is quick and easy. Cons: I'm more familiar with Blackline. Some of the features of Blackline and the reporting capabilities of Blackline are better than Skystem. Also, there seems to be a delay sometimes after approving an account reconciliation before the dashboards update.

Skystem has been a great tool for our company.
I would say my overall experience has been great. It is a good software to use for any company to make sure accounts are balanced monthly. Pros: The system allows us to keep our accounts balanced and on track for end of year goals. It has been a wonderful tool to use. Cons: My least favorite thing is importing data for a new month and opening the new month. I have run into issues before when there are new accounts to upload to a profile.

ART Webinar
Overall: Great, with the new updates this helped me understand how I should be inputting my recons correctly . Pros: I liked the overview of the software while making sure you understood just because you saw something doesn't mean that you won't have access. I liked the overview on the updated platform. Cons: I wish that you could rewind some parts of the webinar to review or speed ahead of the parts that are not applicable to your specific area on the platform

Experience
Pros: It sets up a reconciliation schedule to track your status which helps you manage your reconciliation progress. Cons: Since we already do reconciliation in excel, I think it's duplicate work since we are so busy. Excel can have better detail and we need to pay a lot for using Skystem.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear you find value in the reconciliation schedule and the ability to track progress within the system. We understand your concern about duplicate work. In many cases, this happens when reconciliations are still being managed primarily in Excel rather than leveraging the system’s full capabilities. SkyStem is designed to replace manual spreadsheet work, streamline reconciliations, and save time, especially during busy periods. Our team would be happy to connect with you to walk through ways to maximize the platform and ensure you’re getting the full benefit of your investment.
New Customer to Art
Overall: Sales, Onboarding, training, everything went smoothly and quickly. The team was very hands on, available to answer any questions as we implemented the system and are still available afterwards if something comes up. Pros: I love the organization and ability to see in an instant where our team is during our close each month. It is a better tracking tool to show auditors who prepares a reconciliation and who signs off on the reconciliation than in Excel alone. I also like being able to navigate between periods easily. Cons: There are a few too many options in the reconciliation for variances, I would prefer one section and you could drop down and pick what the reconciliation difference was. Also, I find it tricky to add attachments in the "task preparer" section.

Sometimes it makes it hard to find where you need to enter things.
