"I wish I could rate it higher than a 10"
Comments: Switching to it from one of those other software packages was one of the most liberating experiences of my career.
Pros: It was so easy to add and remove third party apps if and when they were needed.Plus, there were lots of options for third party apps that I could plug in or switch out as needed.
Cons: It never once made me a cup of coffee. I know that sounds like a weird joke but that's pretty much the only thing that it couldn't do for me.

"Invoicing made easy"
Comments: I use it weekly to bill my clients and it only takes me mere minutes to type up my invoice and send to the client.
Pros: I have used Freshbooks for years now and only need it for a select number of clients. But it's interface and app are simple to use for billing. Ease of use is a big factor in using this software
Cons: The limits on the number of clients you can add on a free account. It used to be 5 but this changed to just one a few years ago. This forced me into purchasing a subscription with them.

"FreshBooks"
Comments: Freshbooks was simple to use with hardly any learning curve. If you don't need a full financial application, this works well.
Pros: I love that this software is entirely web based so no mater what device I am on, I can access FreshBooks for Realtime information. It also works seamlessly with my financial institutions.
Cons: I did not have the tax information available to me like I have with my new service. Freshbooks was only half of the program that I needed it to be.

"Great for timekeeping and invoicing, but challenging for bookkeeping"
Comments: Great for invoicing and timekeeping, but bookkeeping function requires a course in accounting or more in-depth training that I just didn't have time for.
Pros: As an attorney in solo practice, the timekeeping function is great. I can use my app or use the computer easily, and it tracks my time in a neat report for clients beautifully. I also find invoicing clients very simple, although I've found some difficulties with customization when it comes to my clients on retainer. Otherwise I've been very pleased.
Cons: I had a very difficult time using the bookkeeping software on the program. I couldn't customize taxes, and I found that because I have no background in accounting I was really messing up frequently. I ended up outsourcing bookkeeping to Bench, which has worked out fine but it's only been a couple of months. the difficulty using Freshbooks for bookkeeping made tax time very difficult and stressful because I had to completely redo what I had entered in the program.
