Overall Comment:"Blackline has started a movement at our company that will drive efficiency and transparency which we have not had before. We are still in the first couple of years of our journey so there are areas for improvement which is why we are attending these conferences and trying to learn as much as we can."

What do you like most about the product or service?

Visibility across the company of where we stand each month on our close process. The task tracking tool has been especially helpful for my team in particular as I can see exactly what still needs to be prepared, approved, or reviewed. It beats doing that in excel by miles.

What do you dislike most about the product or service?

One area I see right away that could be a nice quality of life improvement is when my team attaches a document to a task or reconciliation, when I click on it, it just downloads it. It would make my life easier if I could just preview the document rather than clogging up my downloads folder. Take Outlook for example - when you receive an email with a PDF or Excel attachment, just clicking on it once will give you a preview of the document.
