I love that you can track invoices from the moment you send them, and you can see when the client has viewed them, and even message the client right in the invoicing portal. It helps keep my estimation and billing running smoothly, and makes it easy to process payments, and gives a lot of options to allow my clients to pay me in the way that works best for them. Kommentarer: FreshBooks is truly a joy to use. Turns out it is with a journal entry which is time consuming and makes no sense.

My bookkeeper and I both spent a lot of time with Freshbooks support trying to figure out how to do that. vs what I contribute has been a nightmare. Trying to separate out the cost of what my employees contribute to health insurance, retirement, etc.

The software does not support accounting if you have employees and are paying any benefits. Invoices look good and are easy to create.

You can set up rules for accounts and they will follow those. Setting up my bank links was very simple and transactions were downloaded easily. I loved that I could upload clients I frequently invoice when I transitioned. Overall, I have not been able to have accurate business numbers (profit/loss) for months because trying to figure out how to add payroll info has been so challenging. Invoices default to "accrual" accounting which is a pain if you use cash-based accounting (which I do). Reconciling the small transactions I get from health insurance companies is very time consuming and it seems like there should be a better way to add those payments without having to manually enter each one when I have to reconcile. Kommentarer: It was rated well, so I expected better performance. Ours had to rebuild our system because it doesn't believe in a cash-based accounting system. You will need an accountant to help at the end of the year. If you came from Quickbooks, you know how important double-entry accounting is, in depth reporting with punchouts, a quick dashboard into profitability. This is a major miss on the accounting side of the house. It's great for an owner who needs to be able to just run their business. It took me 2 hours to get setup completely and it was a great experience. Recurring billing, time tracking, payment processing, it's all built in and easy to use.

Freshbooks is the choice we made because it was built for a small service-based business. Hopefully we can get some of those critical features sooner than later. The things I miss from Quickbooks aren't here, but they are continuing to build out the system. I didn't call support and had us rolling in about 2 hours. Kommentarer: It was a good onboarding experience.
