## Reviews

### "Use the free version to get started." — 5.0/5

> **Frank** | *05 July 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It allows me to inexpensively handle my accounting while automating many routine functions.  I need to track miles and I can do that in one familiar environment.
> 
> **Cons**: The part I like the least is describing individual trips.  That is not a fault of the tool, it automates recurring trips.   However, it is a task I do not enjoy.
> 
> Overall this is a great tool for a single person business.  There is a lot you can do with the free version, if you don’t send invoices more than once or twice a month.

### "A great solution for Small Business" — 5.0/5

> **Tyler** | *16 December 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Being self-employed having this software helps tremendously in streamlining my business operations from invoice to accounting.
> 
> **Cons**: There's a bit of a learning curve if you've never utilized software like this but it's relatively easy to use once you get the hang of it.
> 
> So far so good\! It's been helping me safely secure payments and manage my business finances well. There's plenty of articles online for assistance when needed too.

### "Quickbooks" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *14 April 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that there have been so many upgrades recently to make it more user-friendly. The new dashboard is nice.
> 
> **Cons**: I feel that the cost of running payroll is extremely high.  I am looking for a different payroll provider.  I also find it difficult to find past reports.
> 
> My overall experience has been good, aside from pricing.  Once I have familiarized myself with the new layout, I thing it will be a much better experience.

### "Decent program for what one needs" — 4.0/5

> **Eileen** | *12 August 2026* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, easy to learn, organized, well known company, trusted reputation, user friendly, intuitive
> 
> **Cons**: Too many bells and whistles for what I need, I really only use it once a month to balance checkbooks,

### "QB Solopreneur: Cheapest software to manage small business finances" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *09 March 2026* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the price of the software and how I can send invoices easily to clients. It's also easy to sign in without issues.
> 
> **Cons**: I do not like how it requires certain accounts from my bank to be linked to the software. This creates inaccurate money tracking.
> 
> Since I am looking for the cheapest way to send invoices, receive payments, and track LLC spending, this is the best option for me.
