## Reviews

### "Fincent provides our Boutiques with hassle free and accurate accounting." — 5.0/5

> **Vance** | *14 August 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Fincent's team of accountants and bookkeepers have handled our accounting needs promptly with wonderful personal attention to our needs and requirements.  They are always available for any questions we have.
> 
> **Cons**: I have few if any negatives in our work with Fincent.  Minor things like needing to reverify a bank account connection is about all that has taken extra effort.  You can eliminate most problems or work flow issues with good communication and Fincent excels at that.
> 
> Our experience overall with Fincent is excellent. Detailed and accurate accounting in real time with as much or as little human interaction as you want or need.  Streamlining and minimizing what we have to do to have up to the minute accounting.

### "An excellent solution for startups and solopreneurs" — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *22 October 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The personalized assistance. Also the tax filing prep was super helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: No complaints. My experience was great. Thanks\!
> 
> Fincent has been a game changer for my business. The agents are responsive and knowledgeable, and the platform gives me clear insights on my cash flow, balance sheet and expenses that are easy to view at any time.

### "Poor Quality, Lack of Accuracy, and Unreliable Service" — 1.0/5

> **Danielle** | *28 April 2025* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The onboarding team was polite and responsive initially, and the portal to upload documents was easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: Fincent prioritized completing transactions quickly over ensuring the accuracy of the books. They categorized the majority of my transactions, including loans, without requesting the necessary financial documentation, such as loan agreements and payment schedules, required to classify them properly. As a result, loans were incorrectly recorded as revenue. I received almost no communication from my assigned bookkeeper and no proactive outreach to confirm essential financial details before marking the books as “substantially complete.” This is a fundamental failure for any bookkeeping service.
> 
> As a small business owner with ADHD, I needed a bookkeeping service that would be clear, accurate, and supportive. I chose Fincent because they promised a better experience than Bench, but it ended up being a major disappointment. For the price, I expected a true partner; someone who would take care to get things right, not just rush to categorize transactions.&#10;&#10;Instead, Fincent’s careless approach put me at serious financial risk. Misclassifying transactions not only creates messy books, but also leads to major problems like inaccurate tax filings, increased audit risk, and the potential to damage funding opportunities for my business. Accuracy is not optional when it comes to bookkeeping, and no amount of technology makes up for people choosing speed over quality.&#10;&#10;What made it even worse was the complete lack of accountability. When I raised concerns, Fincent did not focus on fixing the inaccuracies. They focused on defending how much of the work had been “completed.” Instead of addressing the serious risks their mistakes created, they prioritized indicating substantial completion over delivering accurate, trustworthy financials, even with a co-founder CC’d on the email. If that does not tell you enough about their ethical practices, or the lack thereof, I am not sure what will. As a small business owner, I cannot afford to gamble on partners who do not treat accuracy and accountability as non-negotiable. Fincent was an expensive mistake and absolutely not worth the money or the stress.

### "Dedicated and Responsive Service\!" — 5.0/5

> **Emily** | *20 August 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have a dedicated and responsive team to help manage all of my books and transacations. Their website is easy to navigate and very user friendly\!
> 
> **Cons**: I don't dislike a thing\! I am very happy with everything provided.

### "Switched from Quickbooks and Didn't Look Back" — 5.0/5

> **Dan** | *30 May 2024* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Their team is smart. They've figured out how to categorize my transactions properly by asking questions about recurring payments and past vendors. I feel like they are an extension of my company.
> 
> **Cons**: The catch-up bookkeeping took awhile to process, but that was also because I asked to go back further after an initial, shorter, catchup process. The Fincent team was supportive and respectful the whole time.
> 
> I started with Fincent because I was looking for a bookkeeping solution that included a team of humans and a well-thought-out user interface. I'm about six months in now and am very happy with the services provided by the Fincent team. They are curious, respectful, and hold me accountable when things are needed—and I can log in at any time to see where my books are at without worrying about whether I've missed a reconciliation or miscategorized something. The support is so appreciated and valued. Also, the fact that they manage a backup Quickbooks account in case I ever decide to leave gives me even more security and more reason to stay with them.
