O-series is a very robust product. Very user friendly and intuitive. Allows for easy customization of customer taxing, taxpayer set up and product taxing attributes. Very accurate tax rates, easy to maintain and integrate with most accounting platforms.
Pros
The application is highly customizable using user-defined tax rules in combination with the out of the box rates and tax driver matrixes.
Cons
The support is sometimes slow to respond and does not always find a solution to the problems that you may encounter leaving some of the troubleshooting to your internal IT department.

It makes my job much easier as I know I can rely on the best calculations out there. I don't have to worry about whether the rates are current.
Pros
The accuracy of the calculations makes this a terrific tool, especially when preparing for audits. The states are hungry for funds and Vertex helps me send them away with little to no money.
Cons
Not being able to use the tab key thru each field makes the program more difficult to use. Also it would help if I was able to add the tax certs when I add the customer.

Biggest issue is not knowing/having access to user exits when looking up issues

ease for filing tax returns, accuracy in applying tax rates
Pros
I like the ease of using the transaction tester (as long as you remember all the flex field needs). The rate lookups and exemption certificate handlings are very easy to use.
Cons
What I like least is trying to identify tax mappings (currently 6.0), but I see 8.0 will be easier?
I do not like that it sometimes has a short span before timing out. We are usually in it all day, but not continuously, so we get timed-out a lot.

Vertex O Series
Reviewed on 22/08/2018
Pros
I like about the updates that go in to every patch monthly which we least bother about the Tax changes across global.
We operate globally and this is the best I feel about.
Cons
It is difficult to use and the main is search does not work as intended and backspace.
There are some forms where these two mentioned don't work and highly difficult in terms of usage.
Thanks,
