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.

Excellent tool for Keeping Books
What do you like best? Invoicing, online payments, ability to customize the look of invoices. I also use the time tracking feature quite a bit. What do you dislike? I'd love it if there were a built-in estimate function. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Solved the problem of my poor bookkeeping skills. It's much easier to track my hourly time and project fees, then generate invoices so I actually get paid for my work.

Best intuitive invoicing and expense software for creatives
What do you like best? I love how intuitive the tools are within Freshbooks. I'm a creative-type who isn't great with numbers. But inside Freshbooks, everything makes sense to me. Invoicing always used to be a real pain. Now, invoicing day is my favorite day of the month, as Freshbooks makes it so easy, especially with the time tracking tool. I also love that I can access the software anywhere that I have an Internet connection. That kind of freedom of setting up my shop anywhere in the ...

What do you like best? It's an easy interface for non-accounting types & their customer support is out of this world. They answer the phone and quickly sort you out. They are fantastic. What do you dislike? I have no dislikes. Honestly. I've been with FreshBooks since day 1 of my small business...11 years ago. It's the only software/app I started with back in 2009 that I've never left behind. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? ...

Easy accounting and tracking for solo entrepreneurs
What do you like best? I like the time tracking features the best. I keep track of all my time on projects. I also like the ease of invoicing my clients. What do you dislike? I would like the ability to be able to charge clients for the use of credit cards. These charges are pretty high for a small business and my clients would be happy to pay for the convenience. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I'm not an accountant. I like ...
