Essential tool to assist in estate administration
As a first time Executor this software was exactly what I needed to have all the estate information (deceased, heirs, distributions), transactions, assets & liabilities, and forms. The task/checklist is a very useful tool to ensure the executor is making progress as the estate is administered & settled. Reporting is one of the most important features and gives the user options for which columns & views to generate with output as .csv or .pdf. I had a lawyer file probate which could be done electronically and providing a report to her to populate the forms was easy. When embarking on this role I researched the tasks required and realized tracking everything was the most challenging part. Initially I started recording information in spreadsheets but thought there must be an app or software that could do that and found EstateExec recommended in multiple places (I was looking for one in particular that was built to include Canadian estates). After using it I can see why and would also highly recommend it as a tool to use in estate administration. It's fairly intuitive and has numerous instruction screens and the support is top notch. While I would rather crawl across broken glass than be an executor again, EstateExec would absolutely be my go-to for administering an estate in future to make it as painless as possible.
