Freshbooks - Easy to Use and Great Customer Service
What do you like best? The Freshbooks Customer Service is phenomenal - they always pick up within a few rings and are extremely friendly and can answer your questions within minutes. What do you dislike? Some of the auto-send functions sometimes appear a bit erratic - clients may receive a late invoice notification email one month, and for whatever reason they won't receive an email the following month. Recommendations to others considering the product If you have plans for ...

Ease of Freshbooks is an A
What do you like best? I like how Freshbooks is much easier to use than QuickBooks Online. It is easy to add customers/clients and it is easy to invoice or bill out customers for work that you have completed. Invoicing is my favorite part. Invoicing has so many great features like when the customer receives the invoice it can be a PDF. The customer/client can once they open the invoice they can see what other invoices are outstanding. Great resource for being a small business owner to ...

Freshbooks Rocks!
What do you like best? Freshbooks makes time tracking, expense tracking and invoicing a BREEZE. I used to struggle and dread invoicing my clients--where are all those little taxi receipts? Did I include all the materials for that project? How many meetings did I have this month with each client? I hated it and consequently was often late and inaccurate--I know I lost a lot of money in expenses that I never recouped. Freshbooks saves the day! It's easy, it's fun, it's intuitive and the ...

Freshbooks is a great program for sending a quick customized invoice by email to your customer.
What do you like best? Freshbooks gets invoices to professional services customers quick and tracks by email that the customer received the invoice and read it.

Sending bills frequently, shortly after service is performed and by the service provider is an excellent small business practice. What do you dislike? There is not a lot to dislike about Freshbooks. The internet location of your company ...

Amazing for lean agencies!
What do you like best? I love how easy it is to invite freelance staff to projects. What do you dislike? I don't like that the app doesn't sync with the web application. But I think that parody is coming. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I can easily collaborate on billable projects and keep notes with my staff.

Slick Time Tracking and Invoicing Software
What do you like best? The ability to generate invoices easily and set estimates. It's a powerful tool compared to another one I use regularly. Good for small, medium and enterprise businesses. What do you dislike? It would be nice if the time tracker itself did not open in a new window and could be built into the main UI. Recommendations to others considering the product It's worth demoing others to find out how many features you would actually use but it's a market leader. What ...

Freshbooks cut my invoicing time by 90%
What do you like best? Freshbooks is easy to set up and use and allows clients to click and pay effortlessly. I noticed a marked upturn in the speed of invoice payment once I implemented this. Also, its great with integrating with my help desk tool and my CRM tool - no repeating data entry. The auto-billing feature is a godsend as well. What do you dislike? One shortcoming is the inability to set terms of payment (due-dates on a client-by-client basis. Not sure why they haven't added ...
