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.

Amazing product, great customer service

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? I love that FreshBooks is reliable and easy to use. I have been using it for more than five years to manage my company’s billing work. The app has boosted my company’s cash flow and my customers also love this system. What aspects are problematic or could work better? FreshBooks is advertised as a cloud accounting software. The description is not accurate as the system lacks a few important accounting features. But it offers top ...

Great platform

What do you like best? I love the ease of use and how much time and energy it saves me when it comes to my accounting needs. Freshbooks is the new age and should be considered the standard for accounting software. Any small business owner should take the time to do this. Lightyears ahead of Quickbooks. It really consolidates all the "money" areas of the business into one place, making your life endlessly easier. What do you dislike? There is little to dislike. This has been a hugely ...

Save your time when invoicing while staying professional

What do you like best? With Freshbooks you can create a great professional image of the company. Another great feature of Freshbooks is the availability of Support Tickets. Your customers will be able to send requests to "support" asking for clarifications and you can close them when the issue is solved. What do you dislike? Nothing. During the time we were using Frashbooks for our purposes everything was good. The system really helped us with invoicing. Recommendations to others ...

What do you like best? that I can invoice and have it linked to my PayPal account and I can restrict PayPal to not accept credit card payments in the invoice system. very important since I am a small business with few clients so they understand I need to keep fees down. What do you dislike? there's nothing I don't like about it. It imports all my bank account info automatically only improvement would be if they could so the same with credit card charges. Recommendations to others ...

My speed and efficiency in invoice payment has significantly increased.

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? Freshbooks is so easy to utilize. It comes with a clean interface. Its iPhone apps allows for seamless time tracking and billing. I've had this for a number of years and it really fits the bill! What aspects are problematic or could work better? I was hoping Freshbooks would let keep time-billing segregated from time tracking. Fortunately, its latest version now allows this. Are you a current user of this product? Yes

Highly recommended for small businesses!

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? Working for an internet marketing and web design firm, our clients are making monthly payments on marketing and hosting services. With Freshbooks, I get to make a monthly-based invoice. It does this with its own set-it-and-forget-it approach that's comfortable to use and highly valuable. Our clients can now save paymet info whenever they're paying their initial invoice for faster payment every one month after. What aspects are ...

Easy billing software

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? I appreciate that FreshBooks is important for my business. I am not an accounting professional and I don’t particularly like bookkeeping. I was looking for a software that helps me do accounting easily. FreshBooks offers all that I need and more too. What aspects are problematic or could work better? My only gripe is the app lacks a browser extension for the time tracking timer. I use this feature a lot so it would be great if ...

Many reasons to love FreshBooks

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? I love FreshBooks for many reasons. It offers excellent mobility and the customer support agents are helpful and friendly. You can use your mobile phone to input data on the go. I am able to give quotes to people right on the phone. Another advantage is I get to know when my client opens my invoice. This means I can know if my invoice went to spam and lies unopened. I can ask my client to open the invoice and get payment ...

We use it for time tracking

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? Our company mainly uses FreshBooks for invoices and time tracking. We have multiple clients and projects so it is important that our employees track their time correctly on projects. More work is needed for some clients and we need to ensure we assign the right amount of time for these clients. We also use FreshBooks to request invoices and track which clients pay the invoices. We can set reminders for overdue invoices and make it ...
