## Reviews

### "Vadar is a very good product. I like that all the features "talk" to one another." — 5.0/5

> **Mary** | *30 March 2018* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I enjoy having Vadar on the Cloud. Ease of access and speed has increased significantly.  I like the reporting capabilities in Vadar, and find them very useful for my EOY reporting.  Overall Vadar is a great product, and I look forward to new changes and modifications of the system to help better streamline the reporting process.
> 
> **Cons**: Not enough trainings. There is so much I still do not know. It would be most beneficial if there were user trainings for AP, AR, JE, budgeting, and to go over some of the other features in Vadar. 
I also dislike setting up links, wish there was an auto feature some how.
