"Business accounting made easy."
What do you like best about Wave? I love how easy wave was to set-up, being a sole-preneur I dont need a lot of fancy bells and whistles. I just needed basic accounting software. I can add my transactions and link them to my vendors, clients, and expense categories. It's great to be able to easily pull up information by client, or vendor.

"Horrible customer service and support"
What do you like best about Wave? The system was easy to learn and intuitive. It was all going great until I needed customer support after ALL of the information I had been inputting for days was inaccessible. Support never contacted me after an initial basic email. They ignored my requests for help for days.

"Love Wave!"
What do you like best about Wave? I love that Wave is completely free - I just didn't have it in my budget to pay for an accounting software at this point in my business, but Wave does everything I need it to, and more.

"In Need of a Walk-thru "
What do you like best about Wave? I love that is is so easy to switch over without using a hard data system to process information. A simple login to the system you already have and they have most of your information within a few hours or days. I love the overlay of the design and how easy it is to use.

"Perfect for a small size business! "
What do you like best about Wave? It is a free site, and perfect for small businesses, 2-10 people office with a small volume of invoices. allows to create professional invoices and keep track of who has paid and who I still need to collect from. Keeps all business related income and expenses in one easy to use place. A cool feature is the memorized invoices / recurring invoices that lets me just rerun the invoices next month.
