Testimonials
Don't take our word for it
We asked our customers what changed since they switched to Mantle, and what they liked most. Here's what they had to say.
“Our firm has been in the accounting and audit business for over 20 years. After COVID we saw our fees fall, our overheads increase and the employer cost rise. We were thinking of selling our company when we found Mantle. We made a bet, we went "all in" and we worked with them to automate as much of our work as we could. Today we are cashflow positive again and looking to grow our client base. Mantle surpassed all our expectations. I would recommend them to anyone.”
“I was supervising a team of bookkeepers doing the work. Now I am supervising a team of bookkeepers that supervise the AI that does the work.”
“(Translated) First I did not trust it. Our company uses a special chart of accounts that is difficult to understand. I thought there was no way the system could understand how to do my work. In the beginning it made some mistakes, but in a few days suddenly it started acting as if I was entering the documents. That was very impressive.”
“I had 3 accountants spending all their time entering documents, a backlog and big delays at the end of every month. Now we can keep up and have time for internal controls, mostly thanks to Mantle.”
“I spent my career doing what Mantle now does on its own. And it's still faster than me. Where was your bank reconciliation 7 years ago?”
“The best test for any accounting system is how well it handles taxation. Everywhere else you have to make adjustments and journals to prepare your returns. Mantle packaged even the undocumented knowledge into an easy to use system.”
“The project management features have helped us track profitability more accurately. With Mantle we have the tools to measure our P&L objectives every day, not just every year.”
“What impressed me about Mantle is how easy it is to use. I came from systems that needed an ACCA to work with. In Mantle most of the time I just press a button.”
“It was important that we use a software made by professionals who understand our work. Our colleagues at Positive were always available to discuss even the most technical questions.”
“I recently registered my company in Cyprus and it was very difficult to have an accurate understanding of its finances. I just needed a reliable solution that runs on Mac. From everything I tried, Mantle is the only one I feel I can trust. ”
“We deal with many complicated international transactions and Mantle was the best system we found that could handle every requirement including tax compliance. No complaints.”
