It was awesome as it really improved our business operations and brought in efficiency. Our Customers & Salespeople all were equally satisfied using this platform.
Limited selection of invoice templates that are horrible looking and not easily branded with your company logos.
Been using for 2 years and all is good and will continue to use. The value for money is quite good and the software evolution is very good.
Poor manual adjustment tools. Poor customer billing/no statement tools.
The most important aspect is fulfilled - reliability. I can't afford to find my accounts unaccessible, and to date they have been very robust and reliable.
Currently I am unaware of such an feature in Kashoo.
Adaptability of the chart of accounts to my jurisdiction, ease of use and intuitive to manage for my staff. Great responsive customer service.
And there is no budget feature (which is probably minor to many small businesses).
I feel like I've only scratched the surface of what this program can do and I'm super pleased with it. The customization options of the reports has been extremely helpful as well.
Sometimes, as with any software, Quickbooks can have problems and terminates at the worst possible time.
I love that I don’t have to outsource simple things like payroll, expense reporting, preparation for taxtime, and more. I have always found the customer service to be very helpful and understanding.
We have used this company for more than 20 years, now they are a pay to use company. I HATE THIS COMPANY, it's all about the money now.
Another huge benefit is the ability to export data to Excel for custom reporting. Another perk is the training and support available - well worth the small monthly fee to take advantage of it.
Customer service is dismal. I was unable to have them assist me in a time critical event.
The Professional version for three. I love how I can help my small but busy non profit seamlessly keep track of hundreds of families in our before and after school care program.
My only complaint has been that when you are couple of releases behind you can no longer direct email invoices to a client.
Javier: Hi, I'm Javier and I'm a small business owner. I gave the Kashoo five stars after trying it out. For more reviews like this, click below. So when I started my small business, I was looking for software to run my accounting, and I looked at Wave and QuickBooks, but ended up picking Kashoo because Wave, even though it's free, has a lot of upgrades and no phone support, and QuickBooks is too expensive. One of the reasons I went with Kashoo was because of its user interface. It's very simple to use, easy to learn, and it comes with full support, including phone support and all the automations that come with it. Pretty impressive. Integrating my business into Kashoo was a snack. All I had to do was sign into my bank accounts, sign into my cards, credit cards, and right away I was seeing all my information just populate into it. For anybody thinking about checking out Kashoo, I would highly recommend it. Above all, it's a solid stable piece of software, and I think they have like a 14 day free trial. So there's nothing to lose.
Kaity H.: Hi, I'm Kaity. I'm the general manager at a small company, we have less than 15 employees, and I give QuickBooks Desktop a five. We use QuickBooks Desktop for invoicing, billing, keeping track of the bills we owe everybody else. Anything that has to do with money at our company, that's what we use QuickBooks for. Keeping track of our bank accounts, that's really important. So we use it for a lot of things. I like that QuickBooks Desktop is easy to use. It's very clear. It has all the buttons. "I want to do billing." Oh, you click on the billing button. "I need to check on a customer." There's the customer button. It's very straightforward. "We need a report." There's a reports list. So it's very straightforward to use. It would be nice if QuickBooks Desktop could be linked to more specific softwares. I know we are a landscape company, so we use certain landscapes. I'm sure electricians and plumbers, they have all different softwares, and if you could link those softwares to QuickBooks, I think that would be awesome. So maybe expand who they partner with to use everybody's different softwares that they need to run their specific companies.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
