Wave pros and cons

  • Provides free accounting tools and features, making it an accessible option for small businesses and freelancers with tight budgets.

  • Easy to use, intuitive interface that simplifies invoicing, expense tracking, and recurring billing for users without an accounting background.

  • Automates key accounting tasks such as bank reconciliations, recurring invoices, and transaction categorization, saving time and effort.

  • Allows seamless integration with bank accounts and imports transactions efficiently, streamlining financial tracking.

  • Poor customer service with slow response times, limited availability, and insufficient support, especially for non-paying users.

  • Issues with payment processing, such as funds being withheld, accounts being frozen, or payouts being delayed without clear explanations.

"Overall good free product"

What do you like best about Wave? The price tag can't be beat. You only pay to process payments or payroll. If you don't need either service it's 100% free to use. It has all of the basic features that a freelance or a small service-based business needs. You are able to have multiple companies and unlimited collaborators. The product is constantly being improved as I see offers to beta test new features and have benefited from several new features released during the years that I have been ...

"Easy to use"

What do you like best about Wave? This was the first billing app I tried, and I love it. My invoices look great, and my clients can easily pay via ACH, PayPal, or any major credit card.

"Awesome free bookkeeping"

What do you like best about Wave? For a free service, the application was very professional-looking, feature dense, and easy to use. I was grateful to find this when first starting out my business, and didn't have a lot of capital to invest in setting up my administrative structure. I really like the design, and the color-coded ability to see which invoices have been paid / sent / unpaid. It is so easy, and took me hardly any time to set it up and get use to using it.

"Simplest system to keep track of expenses"

What do you like best about Wave? Ease of use; the general ledger of adding expenses/income. Provides you with a breakdown of what type of expenses are available as well as allowing you to create your own. Can take expenses off of cash on hand value! Many reports available to help you get a better idea of where your expenses lie. I have yet to use the Payroll feature as we have no employees; but the ease of use is what turned me on the most to this program. The fact that this program is of ...
