A Avalara Case Study
Colortone Audio Visual, a Port Chester, New York–based installer of high-end audiovisual systems with over 70 years in business, serves companies, schools and government agencies across New York, Connecticut and New Jersey. Even within that regional footprint the company faced complex, rapidly changing sales‑tax rules across dozens of local jurisdictions, creating compliance risk and diverting time from core revenue‑generating work.
Colortone integrated Avalara AvaTax and Avalara Returns with Oracle NetSuite to automate tax calculations, filing and remittance. The quick implementation gave the team confidence and proactive nexus alerts, freed leadership to focus on sales and installations, and improved customer experience by showing full, transparent pricing that includes sales tax.
