Karbon Review (From Accounting Director)

Karbon is an all in one job management platform that has helped us move away from spreadsheets, Outlook Calendar and other ad hoc tools. We now have everything in one place. We set up jobs like recurring BAS and tax returns and Karbon automatically allocates them to the right staff member at the start of each period. Any client emails can be tagged to the job so the team can see the full history before they begin. The biggest time saver so far is that each Monday staff can open their work list and know exactly what they need to do without anyone directing them. I can also look at their work categories and see progress in real time. The visibility is far better than what we had before. There are other features that are already helping us save time and get information in sooner such as automated client reminders and checklists for items like bank statements. We will likely remove our current practice management software along with Outlook because Karbon covers these areas for us. Karbon does a lot and we are still learning. If your workflow or staff productivity feels scattered this brings everything into one system rather than spreading it across several. We have already found that it does more than we expected. I would recommend bringing in an implementor to map out what it can do and to help you set it up properly. Regular quarterly meetings with an account manager like Bianca have also been valuable for us to understand new features and identify improvements. It will probably take a year or so to get comfortable and reach about 80% use of the program which is what we aim for with most software. Even at this early stage it is already working well for us and giving us better structure, better visibility and more consistency across the team.

Keeping everything in one place

All of our workflows are in Karbon and this allows us to have great oversight over our practice with where jobs are at and knowing that documents are where we need them to be. Anyone could pick up any job if they needed to.

Can See Potential

Being new to Karbon, I can already see the efficiency Karbon will provide. We have been flying blind on resource management to date. The email triage is already a game changer. Am looking forward to seeing the full potential of this software.

As essential part of how we operate

We’ve been using Karbon for over a year now and haven’t looked back. The platform has genuinely streamlined our workflow, helping us manage tasks more efficiently and stay organised. One of its biggest strengths is the visibility it provides across the entire team’s workload. Karbon has become an essential part of how we operate, and we’d happily recommend it to any team looking to improve collaboration and workflow management.

Response from Karbon

Thanks so much, Haylee. It’s great to hear how Karbon has helped streamline your workflow and give your team clear visibility across workloads. We really appreciate the recommendation and are glad Karbon has become such a core part of how you operate!

A must to grow a modern practice

We have found Karbon to be integral to growing our firm efficiently and effectively. The email management and one source of truth are a necessity. Workflows and automations have reduced the need for unnecessary admin. Can't wait to see what Karbon release next.

Response from Karbon

Thanks for sharing this, Felicity. It’s great to hear how Karbon has supported your firm’s growth, especially with email management, a single source of truth, and reduced admin through workflows and automations. We really appreciate the feedback and your excitement for what’s ahead!

A great platform that is a must for a growing business

Karbon has been a game changer for us. I have had it for 6 years now and it has allowed me to scale my business and have clear procedures, visibility over all tasks and where each team member and client file is at. I'm so glad that I signed up when there was only 3 of us as I would never have been able to scale to the 7 that we are now. The email sharing and visibility has also been fantastic. Support is very responsive and they are always coming out with new improved features that are helpful. I love it!

Response from Karbon

Thanks for the thoughtful review, Cristie. It’s wonderful to hear how Karbon has supported your growth over the years, from clear procedures and task visibility to email sharing as your team scaled. We really appreciate you sharing your experience and kind words about the platform and support!
