## Reviews

### "Passport Software Review" — 4.0/5

> **Lynda** | *July 20, 2016* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Customer Support
> 
> **Cons**: Not easily integrated with the internet to email documents.
> 
> Used both the mfg and accounting sides of this software  for over 10 years.  My staff is so familiar with the functions that  to choose an alternative would be too costly from a purchase to a training standpoint. Their updates continue to provide improvements and efficiencies.

### "Great customer service" — 4.0/5

> **Patty** | *July 20, 2016* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of using.
> 
> **Cons**: That in order to post in the general ledger, everyone has to be out of the software, even if they are just viewing.
> 
> I have used this product for many years.  I have always received excellent help from customer service and the technical support people.

### "MAKING MONEY OFF OF SMALL BUSINESS" — 1.0/5

> **Michael** | *July 12, 2016* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Cons**: Think I have said enough about your software, the Insurance compaines and the ACA&#13;&#10;By the way, l have YOU figured it out yet?
> 
> I feel that the insurance companies, brokers and the accounting software companies FOUND a way to make money off of the small business owners when it comes to the ACA.&#13;&#10;I am just over the 50 employees, but I fell into the mix that I had to offer insurance. Then I had to pay for something (Passport) I didn't understand and I paid for a passport tech to travel 65 miles to get it up and running.&#13;&#10;He even called Passport a number of times and even your people could not give us the true answer. But don't feel to bad, the IRS could not help either.&#13;&#10;So what do I think of your software? There is NO GOOD REASON  that I should have had to have it, but because the government says I have to do this and that - the same this and that THAT they don't even know the answers too, I guess it is a  -ok - piece of  work\!  We will see what it does for us at the end of this year if I can afford to stay in business because of the insurance. Oh, how much do you PLAN on charging for so called updates.
