Commenda vs Group Vision Web

Commenda provides transfer pricing policy, benchmarking, documentation, and filing services through web and API access. Its policy work maps intercompany transactions, selects methods by transaction type, and documents functional analysis to OECD BEPS Action 13 standards. Benchmarking uses commercial databases to establish arm’s-length ranges with interquartile analysis, median and tested-party positioning, and documented search methods. Documentation can include a group Master File, jurisdiction-level Local Files, and Country-by-Country Reports where required. The service tracks deadlines by jurisdiction and prepares disclosures and CbCR notifications. Commenda says annual benchmarking refreshes, policy reviews, and Local File updates are included, with a complete draft package delivered in about four weeks. It advertises more than 100 integrations, including NetSuite, SAP, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Stripe, and Shopify, plus REST API and custom integrations. Pricing is paid, from $1,500; a typical first set is priced on request.

Group Vision Web manages legal entity information, including capital, shareholdings, signature powers, directors and other representatives. Its group charting tool calculates direct and indirect ownership percentages without requiring plug-ins. Users can save report templates, generate reports for one or more entities, and export them to Excel, Word or PDF. Document Manager stores corporate documents in its database or links to documents in another application, with access restricted by user permissions. The product runs in a browser on desktops, tablets and smartphones. Askival offers cloud-hosted and on-premises deployments; hosted use can involve perpetual licences or a pay-as-you-go SaaS model. SAML 2.0 authentication and single sign-on are available for hosted and on-premises installations. The maker says its cloud hosting uses Microsoft Azure and EU datacentres described as ISO-certified. On-premises installations require Windows Server 2016 or later and Microsoft SQL Server 2012 or later; the application database needs 100 MB of disk space. Askival also offers migration, customisation, integration consultancy, helpdesk support and training. Pricing is on request.
