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).

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

User friendly and professional software solution

Super user friendly and professionally formatted invoicing software. Love that it saves and pre-populates my clients and most common item descriptions and rates. Visual dashboard shows me my YTD earnings and outstanding invoices. Recommend.

I love the simplicity of the time tracking and invoicing. I wish I had this for the last 20 years, as I was using an Excel spreadsheet. Freshbooks time is so much easier to manage.

Trusted Accounting Tool

Trusted Accounting Tool Freshbooks keeps my company running smoothly. Their easy-to-use estimates, proposals, and invoicing allow me to seamlessly keep my accounting organized. It also lets me keep track of everything that's easy to hand over when tax time arrives.

Friendly to Use with Customer Service You Can Talk To

I have been using Freshbooks for maybe 3 years now and I love that it is affordable, friendly to use and the best part, YOU CAN TALK TO A HUMAN ON THE PHONE! Whenever I have a question, I can call without having to subscribe to one of the higher subscription levels. There are some features I would like to see that are not available at all, but for the time being, the service fits my bookkeeping needs.

It's Just Right

FreshBooks has the perfect combination of functionality. Often times billing and/or accounting software can be bloated and complicated. FreshBooks is not. It's easy to use and allows me to do everything I need to regarding billing, tracking expenses, and running my business.
