Wesley: Hi, my name is Wesley and I own a photography business. We do a wide variety of portraiture and wedding events, and I give 17hats five out of five. What I ended up doing was using a lot of free apps, which just caused headache, and so I ended up switching to 17hats and I never looked back. So I chose 17hats because they offer a wide variety of features. I liked being able to manage my clients, do my bookkeeping, do invoice management, all of that under one roof, and then they've added the ability to be able to do contact forms on your website. There's a client portal that they can log in and see their documents with you. You can just do a lot of different things. And so, to me, that just made the value of what you get with the subscription with them that much more. Getting started with 17hats was pretty painless. Just log in. You have to customize some things and upload your logo and that type of stuff, but it was pretty easy to do. As with any piece of software, you have to keep in mind there is a little bit of learning curve as you figure out where things are and how things work, but you're going to run into that anywhere. So I would say overall it was pretty painless and easy to use. I would definitely recommend you first think about what it is that you need in a piece of software, so that you can identify and verify that the software is going to do what you need it to do.
