Spotsaas Editor’s POV

FreshBooks works best for freelancers, small agencies, and service businesses handling invoicing, expense tracking, and basic project costing. The interface requires minimal training, and core features—time tracking, expense categorization, project assignment—are straightforward to set up. Account managers are available for onboarding calls, and the mobile app ...Read more

Freshbooks pros and cons

  • User-friendly interface, making it simple to set up and use even for non-accounting experts.

  • Excellent customer support with responsive, knowledgeable, and patient account managers, frequently cited for their exceptional service.

  • Effective for small and freelance businesses, particularly for tasks like invoicing, expense tracking, and bookkeeping.

  • Offers valuable features like recurring billing, time tracking, project collaboration, and seamless payment integrations (e.g., PayPal, Stripe).

  • Reporting functionalities and customizations are less capable compared to industry giants, limiting advanced financial analysis.

  • Invoice customization options are relatively limited, which may not meet specific branding needs.

Great time tracking & invoicing tool for 1099 contractors, free-lancers or independent consultants

What do you like best? I love the Freshbooks mobile app. That thing is a huge life saver & time saver for quickly capturing expenses & images of receipts the moment I have a receipt in hand for business expenses, and assigning them to the right project/client with the right expense category. That alone makes Freshbooks worth it for me. I also love the ease of tracking time to various projects/clients and then the ability to quickly & easily create, edit and send invoices. And best of all, ...

One of the best Cloud Accounting Tools Out there

What do you like best? I did a lot of research before I picked an accounting tool. I looked at both cloud based and static systems. FreshBooks appealed the most to me because it is cloud based. I can have it on any internet enabled computer, my phone and my tablet. What do you dislike? I need internet access to access my information. Not really a huge deal but it's definitely a factor. Overall there isn't really anything that I dislike about the program. I've been using it consistently ...

Easy to use cloud-based accounting software that is always improving

What do you like best? I like how often FreshBooks introduces new features and small quality-of-life changes to the application. These often show up when logging in as helpful little splash screens telling about new features, with links to quickly see them in action. This really helps the discover-ability of new things that you may not have known you wanted or needed. At the end of the day though, this is accounting software, and it helps me to quickly and easily manage the flow of money ...

I use Freshbooks as an easy way to do my billing for my small business

FreshBooks is the best billing software to maximize cash flow

What do you like best? FreshBooks is unmatched in how well it handles invoice follow up. It makes it very easy to not only create and send out bills, it is quite flexible for accepting online payments as well as reminding clients -- automatically -- that their invoice is due. For service-based businesses, there's nothing else that even comes close to helping to keep the cash flowing. That's what it's all about, right? What do you dislike? FreshBooks is not a full double-entry ...
