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.

Excellent platform for small business

Excellent platform for small business. I use it to keep records of my clients, projects, expenses, and to some degree my finances. Really great time tracking capabilities, estimate generation, invoicing—all top notch. Easy to keep everything organized by client, project, and task, which makes invoicing and monitoring projects a breeze.

Just awesome

Just awesome. I love the tool and I recommend it to everyone. I only have a reservation on the value vs the actual cost. The value is there, but including extra features that we now rely on add-on would be a great improvement.

Overall great invoicing and time tracking software for freelancers and small businesses

Freshbooks has been a program I've been using for several years now as they've made my time tracking and invoicing so much more efficient than my old school manual method of Excel and custom invoices. I also find the reporting functions useful and they seem to consistently improve their user experience. I've only had to use their customer services a few times and they were always prompt and effective with solutions.

Overall I am super happy with Freshbooks. Makes my accounting super easy - especially during tax season. My only complaint is I have heard about the new design for months now and still my account has never been updated... Still waiting to see the new look.
