### "Superb law firm specific client service system"

December 6, 2024

5.0

Very good overall cloud base service for law firms

Pros

gets the job done. Document uploading, e-signing documents, and a client communication portal, you name it.

Cons

Pricey service as you add more licenses within the firm.

Features were not robust like and they were trying to be cute with appearances and too modern instead of important features like search and categories for files

### "Clio: Great for what you need"

November 22, 2024

4.0

is a great, basic legal site that provides most of what you need. Very easy to use, the scheduling features are top-notch, and they have the best customer service I've ever seen. Only downsides is that it's very basic and does provide a full amount of features, despite the constant updates.

Pros

\- Clean layout - Straight-forward interface - Friendly Customer Service

Cons

\- Basic Billing tab - Too many Eservice fees - Not enough features

### "Lots of great add-ons - AND the basics are done well"

October 29, 2024

5.0

We onboarded with back in 2014 and we haven't looked back! Sure there were some growing pains, we have seen it grow and strengthen in its offerings over the years, but the immediate tech support available to our staff has been a constant from the very beginning. Now, after so many years and having to pull reports and data on (very) old time-entries and past users, we realize what a smart investment this was. Clio's record-keeping is exact, intact, and reliable.

Pros

Robust platform that integrates time-keeping, billing, write-offs, and lawyer productivity seamlessly. Conflict checking. Competent, authorized human customer service is truly just a phone call away - no difficult menus and queuing music.

Cons

Document filing/storage area by matter is a bit clunky, as is the -generated Client email - though it is conceptually a great idea it doesn't work smoothly in practice.

[QuickBooks Desktop](https://www.capterra.com/p/212058/QuickBooks-Desktop-Pro/)

We switched away from a law CRM desktop software (name not found in list). Trust accounting on the old system was counterintuitive and was not being run properly.

### "Good but can be better & friendly"

August 1, 2025

3.0

My overall experience in 3 months that I have using it is good, I like it but as I said it can be more friendly

Pros

Easy to use, although you have Grow and Clio manage, and it can be sometimes confusing. what is the purpose of both?

Cons

Not so friendly because It's difficult to find things in it and because client gets lost when they try to use a template

### "Inflexibility at its worst"

June 26, 2025

1.0

Cons

I don't like at all. They won't let me pause my annual subscription while I prepare my newly acquired law firm to change management software to Clio. Since they do not want to work with me on a subscription that would actually make them more money I think they are simply to stupid to have my future business. Take that annual subscription money and rub it in your chest. I won't renew and will instead get practice panther.

### "Do yourself a favor: sign up with Clio! You will not regret it."

October 24, 2024

5.0

We are never going back to other platforms. Other "attorney centric" solutions for document management, client relationship management, timekeeping and billing are LESS intuitive and MORE expensive.

Pros

is intuitive and provides excellent document management, client relationship management, timekeeping and billing all in one platform for a reasonable price with no long term commitments.

Cons

On occasion will have glitches - connectivity issues. When that happens, we're at a standstill. Fortunately, it doesn't occur often, and when it does it is short lived.

### "Efficient and easy"

December 1, 2024

4.0

compact and easy to use, lots of features, but with it was easier to communicate with clients through it and colleagues within the firm

Pros

Everything is in one place, and its easy to read.

Cons

Mixnor bug fixes: sometimes when you go back on a page, it doesn't load. the calendar at the top with the "All Day" matters sometimes is forgetful; it doesn't scream "Urgency."

The customer service and training are excellent

Pros

Easy to learn and a lot of capabilities if you don't mind "add ons"

Cons

Some of their solutions were a little unconventional, ie if an atty wants two different rates I was advised to change the rate case by case. I thought there should have been a better solution

Pros

December 3, 2024

It is the lifeblood of my practice. ClioCon and the community of users is unrivaled in the legal industry as a source of information and forward thinking.

Pros

I love having everything in one place - not a bunch of extra integrations or connecting apps needed. I also love that is constantly making improvements and listens to its users.

Cons

The need to sync back and forth between Grow and Manage and the appt booking does not constistently stay up to date with my calendar.
