New features and partnerships!

As a design freelancer I feel like this software was designed specifically for me! Lol, They also have all the tools necessary to scale your business/staff and remain organized. They recently partnered with Stride to make getting health coverage -as a freelancer- THAT MUCH EASIER! I can't wait to see where they go from here!

Easy to use and better than Dubsado

I have been a freelancer for more than 12 years and used Dubsado as my CRM since 2018. Since repeatedly running into the same issues with Dubsado, I looked for alternatives and tried a few options. When I found Bonsai at the start of 2022 I was pleasantly surprised. The platform feels much more user-friendly, streamlined, and clean. I love that I can switch between currencies, depending on the location of my client. Highly recommended!

Happy customer for 8+ years

I've been with Bonsai since 2016, and it's impressive how much they have added and improved over the years. I'm a self-employed web designer and digital marketer and Bonsai is perfect for everything I need. From customer service to the actual products, I have zero complaints.

This has really helped with my invoicing

This has really helped with my day-to-day invoicing. There's so much to it that I'm just to discover but I 100% recommend.
