"Seamless onboarding, I no longer have to think about my books until they are ready"
What do you like best about Pilot?

First and foremost, the integration with tools we were already using. Pilot plugs right into our Quickbooks and basically manages everything from there. They have also been very proactive in flagging/escalating any issues that needed to be addressed, some of which were actually fairly important and we hadn't noticed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pilot?

The only issue we've really had is that one of our providers requires and individual's SSN for accountant access which Pilot doesn't support. This is very minor, we just upload the statement once a month, when Pilot sends the alert that it's time to upload it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Pilot has exceeded expectations every step of the way."
What do you like best about Pilot?

The process is simple, straightforward, smooth. Questions are answered near immediately, with patience and deep knowledge. Most important is how very human and caring they are in the best way. After a family tragedy earlier this year, I was very moved by Pilot's unexpected and deeply thoughtful response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Positive Experience with Pilot as a Bookkeeper"
What do you like best about Pilot?

Smooth platform with a team that communicated well & answered questions promptly. CEO reached out reguarly to see if I was happy with my service. Books were given at a steady & predictable pace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pilot?

A little expensive for really early stage startups. They offer more services than I was ready for, so I stopped my subscription for now & plan to join again later. Also, the commitment to an annual subscription was not ideal for my current stage, but probably makes more sense later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
