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.

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.

Nothing I've requested so far (no matter how small) has actually happened. Recommendations to others considering FreshBooks: Give it a ...

"So simple"

What do you like best about FreshBooks? The interface is very simple and it means I spend very little time logging time, listing expenses and invoicing. What do you dislike about FreshBooks? It is not very clear how deposits are handled. I've managed to deal with this manually. I also wish it had an automatic way to calculate mileage expense. I like math, but not that much. Recommendations to others considering FreshBooks: At least for a knowledge consultancy, it does 95% of what I need and ...

"Best cloud accounting software... no-brainer for solopreneurs!"

What do you like best about FreshBooks? The best part about FreshBooks is the recurring invoice feature and the automated invoice reminders! I also love the proposals and ability to convert an accepted proposal to an invoice in one click! What do you dislike about FreshBooks? I would like to see more data on the dashboard and/ or data presented differently... monthly revenue in a bar graph vs continue line graph; year over year comparison; view of top line vs bottom line sales with a check ...
