What they wish it did
Capabilities people described needing that CaseWare does not give them, taken from the highest-scoring problems first. These are individual accounts written in each person’s own terms, so two entries may describe the same underlying gap in different words.
- Audit software with seamless auto-import of trial balances and no manual intervention
- Integrated audit suite that replaces decentralized tools with one platform
- Automatic report generation without manual hovering
- AI audit tool that integrates within existing platforms like Excel and CaseWare to avoid disruptive platform migration
- Trial balance cleaning software with automated normalization and error detection
- A library of professionally crafted, up-to-date A&A engagement letter templates with customization options and software integration
- Integrated AI stack that works within existing Excel and CaseWare environment for standardized audit tasks
What they do instead
The manual processes people built around the gap. A long workaround list is the strongest evidence a problem is real: someone is already paying for it in time. Where several people described the same workaround, it is marked.
- Uses multiple software tools (Caseware, Checkpoint Engage, Hubsync) instead of a single integrated solution
- Manually waits 2-24 hours for Inflo's data team to process trial balance imports
- hovers over CY or PY labels to see breakdown but cannot get actual report
- auditors go back to Excel before the trial's over
- searching for current engagement letters from third parties
- asking colleagues to share templates
- individual seniors running their own ad-hoc ChatGPT workflows

The problems themselves

Read this fairly
These are complaints, and only complaints — nobody posts to say their software worked. A high count mostly reflects how many people use CaseWare at all, so this page is not a quality judgement and should not be read as one. What it is good for is the shape of the gaps: the specific jobs people could not get done, which are the same whether the tool is popular or not.
