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.

Love this app

What do you like best? I’ve used FreshBooks for the past 3 years as a freelance designer. It’s super easy to invoice clients and track expenses. I send the reports generated from Freshbooks to my accountant at tax time. What do you dislike? The limit of 5 clients for $160/year is definitely a downside and quite frankly annoying. I’m having to delete and add clients depending on how many I have active. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you ...

Well thought-out interface, easy to use.

What do you like best? I like the clean interface and number of services that can be integrated with FreshBooks. What do you dislike? I wish there was a way to customize the look of the invoice more than the currently included options. Recommendations to others considering the product: Take time to go through all tabs to discover the long list of features. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Keeping all my accounting data ...

What do you like best? It's simple to use, they're adding new features so it's not stagnant. Invoices look great. What do you dislike? I used QuickBooks at a previous job, so there are some features that I occasionally miss. Recommendations to others considering the product: It's all the tools you need in an easy-to-use platform. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? My invoices are neat and consistent. Expenses are easy to ...

They’ve always been super helpful.

We can get invoices paid quickly. We like their recurring invoice feature. Easy to use dashboard.

So simple

What do you like best? The interface is very simple and it means I spend very little time logging time, listing expenses and invoicing. What do you dislike? 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 the product: At least for a knowledge consultancy, it does 95% of what I need and is 100% easy. ...

Excellent Service simplifies the process of managing your business

What do you like best? The desktop site is very easy to understand and work with, it's setup in such a way that it's very user-friendly. Generating estimates and converting them to invoices has been an invaluable tool for us. Adding clients is very simple. Changing one invoice from another and the payment terms/options, late fees are all very easy to use. It would be great if Freshbooks would add the ability for the discount attributed to an invoice only apply to the original invoice ...

FreshBooks was a breakthrough for my company

What do you like best? I love the ease of the platform and the ability to access it from anywhere. What do you dislike? I wish there was an ability to search by words within the notes section and to also add a field within fields, opposed to having to add at the bottom and then manually move up (those who use it will understand what I mean). Recommendations to others considering the product: Great option for those who wants something user friendly and easily accessible! ...
