> 
> **Pros**: Ability to identify and take actions on the flaws or loop holes in the business process and further improve it.

### "Saves a lot of manual working time due to automatic business processes\!" — 4.0/5

> **Christian** | *June 25, 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software is easy to learn and use for all responsible employees in the company (in particular employees in our accounting department). So we didn't need to spend much money for user trainings and could start very soon. Furthermore, we saved a lot of working time since implementing this software due to changing many data checks from Manual to automatic.
> 
> **Cons**: Fine tuning of the controls was hard work and it took a lot of time to customize all attitudes to our business specifications. But after this fine tuning was done it works very well and we got the spended time back due to the pros of the automatization process.
> 
> Overall, this software allows us to perform significantly more controls than would be possible manually. Thereby, we significantly improved our compliance and risk management system for accounting and taxation issues.

> 
> **Pros**: ALESSA IS USER FRIENDLY AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS EXCEPTIONAL.
