Michael O
President
4.0

Michael: Hi, this is Michael I'm president of a tour company, I give FiveStars four stars. For more reviews like this click down below. Before I found FiveStars I was using Square, Square Payments, as my onsite payment processor, and it worked okay, I thought it was a little bit limited in its functionality, but the one thing I didn't like about it is you it didn't have a rewards or a promotional aspect to it. I chose FiveStars basically because I saw the great opportunity in marketing directly to my customers, gathering phone numbers, and setting up a reward/marketing promotion program with FiveStars that I couldn't ease with my previous application. It was real easy to onboard FiveStars, the websites really good, the apps really intuitive, and they also have really good support available on the website, so I really didn't have any problem onboarding. I think it'd be easy for anybody. I would recommend anybody considering FiveStars to go ahead and give it a try, it's risk free, and it's just really an invaluable tool as far as gaining customer phone numbers and emails, and it's a great marketing tool for a small business, basically.

Alex Y
COO
5.0

Speaker 1: My name is Alex. I'm the COO for Made By WiFi. We're a boutique IT firm based out of New York City with under 10 employees. I would rate QuickBooks Online a 5/5. I use QuickBooks Online for bookkeeping, invoice management, accounts receivables, payment processing, as well as the reporting capabilities which are very rich. I like how easy it was to pick up and learn. I've never used QuickBooks before. We were managing our company's finances through Google Sheets prior to QBO. The learning curve was basically a day, we got it all figured out. It's very easy to navigate and it's very easy to find what you need as well as streamline financial operations. Just making it easier to get paid, essentially. I'd like to see more consistent monthly billing from QBO. I feel like our monthly billing increased almost by 50% since we signed up without really getting more features. I'm not sure how quickly or why they raised their prices so aggressively, but they have, and I wish there was just more of a locked-in rate for a period of time that we could have agreed to.
