### "Still in Love! "

March 19, 2026

5.0

I am still drawn to Clio that possesses rich case management features but definitely a more interactive adoption of user suggestions and expansion definitely of its reports is needed.

Pros

Taking into consideration the word "Overall" - the Clio experience has been good. We experienced some minor hiccups in customer service this month, March 2026 which was resolved by escalation. The issue could have been quickly resolved had the representative looked at the issue commonsensically but it was a painful experience BUT one that was resolved. Resolution is the Goal right?

Cons

Thinking outside the box with some customer service representatives; I feel they should indeed lead to "opening the eyes" of the user with their insights.

### "Effective Product"

June 8, 2023

5.0

So far its been a good experience. It is much more user friendly than the last management software we were using.

Pros

The ease of use if the thing I like best about Clio. Its very easy to navigate and figure out how to do something you might not have come across yet.

Cons

The thing I like least about Clio is that it does not work well with QuickBooks. The expense entries do not import from QuickBooks separately, but all as one entry. Very annoying and time consuming to fix.

### "Clio is Essential to My Practice"

September 13, 2022

5.0

Pros

I have been a longtime user of Clio and cannot imagine what my practice would be without it. It is hard to state what is most valuable: having access to all of my client's information at the touch of a button, or the ability to store and retrieve documents remotely from any location, or the secure feeling of knowing that all of my information is secure, or is it knowing that if I have any questions that the technical support is top notch? Perhaps it is just that the staff at Clio are some of the nicest people I have worked with from the sales and support team to the upper management.

Cons

If I had to find a "Con" about Clio it would have to be that there are so many features and so many things that it can do that I just cannot imagine ever being able to utilize it to its full potential!

Reason for choosing Clio

I chose Clio primarily because of its interface and operational abilities.

### "Trial Law Firm Uses Clio Because It Works"

November 4, 2022

5.0

The company and the software have been great to work with. In 8 years, we have had zero issues. ClioCon is worth the time and investment to attend.

Pros

It is easy to use with intuitive features.

Cons

Not being able to reconcile bank accounts and close the year out. Also, I wish there was a tighter experience with Office365 to that we don't have to reconnect and reauthenticate the email plugin in Outlook.

Reason for choosing Clio

Because there were many integration options to pull data and store it in one location.

### "If you are thinking about Clio, go ahead and sign up! Clio is easily 5 years ahead of its competitor"

August 18, 2022

5.0

My experience with Clio has been excellent. Honestly, Clio is more than a software company. So many different staff members have contacted me to ensure I had no issues with the software. Also, Clio has opened doors for other opportunities for me.

Pros

I love the ease of intake automation. As a solo attorney, my time is very limited. Clio has changed not only my life but allowed me to have additional time to focus on my clients' needs.

Cons

Nothing so far. Honestly, I am very satisfied with Clio. I am still learning many features but that is because they have offered so many features to ensure my business is successful.

### "Why Clio sucks and you'll only find out after investing far too much."

August 26, 2022

2.0

Eh... I should have cut my losses instead of hoping they will fix the glitches.

Pros

The HelloSign integration is the only reason I stay. It has the benefits of any basic CRM.

Cons

Customer service is horrendous. Sure they are polite and quite courteous in fact, however, it's like speaking to a brick wall. It's like everyone's drank the cool-aid. They avoid the acknowledging system limitations or errors like the pliegue which obviously comes from the top. There are far better CRM programs with true automation for far cheaper instead of the patch work of products branded as Clio. I could get the same, if not better, effect with Zapier. Yes, I'm bitter because I've invested thousands of hours and dollars and now I'm stuck. As a sole practitioner, I do not have the money or man power to start all over again. I tell ALL my peers they are much better off using Dubsado and HelloSign than Clio. Tyring to get technical support is a time suck! The level of work/investment needed just to get the first tier customer support familiar with the product then explaining the issue is not worth addressing it AT ALL! They obviously receive minimal training and have NO real comprehension or experience with the Clio products themselves. It's like they are afraid to admin they don't know or they don't understand. They are just key word searching in the help index which I've ALREADY DONE!

### "Review of Clio From Attorney Owner At Small Firm"

July 26, 2019

5.0

I recommend Clio to solo and small firm attorneys. It has a lot of features that you may not use but it is nice to have the option. In spite of its many features, Clio is easy to use. My billing and collections went up when I switched to Clio because logging time and billing is very easy and the gmail feature makes sure I remember to bill for mass of emails I receive each day. My calendar, matter and contact information is available quickly wherever I am. Clio has improved my efficiency and made my work day easier.

Pros

Clio is very fast, even when I am accessing the full website on my ipad. I love the new add on for Gmail that allows me to bill directly to Clio from the email and even save the mail to Clio if I want. The program feels modern. The program is easy to use in spite of the many many features. I have three staff members, one under 30, one under 50 and one in her 70s. All three are able to easily use the program. I like the third party apps that work directly with Clio such as Dropbox, Invoice Sherpa , Gmail and Fastcase. Customer service is very responsive and Clio is constantly receiving significant upgrades.

Cons

Based on all of the options and information available in Clio I am still surprised by the minimal reporting capabilities in the practice management side of the program. The basics are there but in my opinion there are many helpful reports that are missing. Even if Clio does not want to add additional reports, making an option for the user to create custom reports would be a good alternative. Clio added an option to require and maintain an evergreen retainer. That is very helpful, however, you have to send a separate request to the client for the evergreen retainer to be replenished. It would be much more helpful if you had the option to include the evergreen retainer request on the client invoice. My clients get confused when they receive a billing invoice and then on the same day or some days later yet another invoice with a new request for retainer replenishment.

Reason for choosing Clio

Continuous upgrades, many more features, easy to use, pleasing interface, strong and stable company.

### "Great app, easy to use "

June 19, 2021

5.0

I have been using Clio for over 5 years, I have seen how they have been updating to the moon. I like how easy your job can be using this software. You can have access to your case everywhere, including on your phone(the phone app works fine too). If you work with a time, I can imagine a better option to do it, you all can see every movement everyone did in a case, it is amazing

Pros

I like how intuitive can be the software, it is very easy to use, they are always updating the app with better features, they have a lot of integration with other software.

Cons

The customer service is a little complicated to contact. I have been trying to contact them and first, we can be in the phone for a while, second, they will not be able to help me on the first call, seems like the customer service it is not very familiar with the app. Thank god, I do no have to contact them often.

Reason for choosing Clio

I like the design and the integrations options with another software

### "You cannot rely on anything that employees of Clio tell you to be true."

January 20, 2023

1.0

Onboarding was a nightmare, with technical glitches that caused hours and hours of additional work and clean up. Syncing our contacts resulted in the destruction of our already used and curated list. Misrepresentations were made by salespeople as to what the software was capable of doing. As a result of all of that, we were made reasonable promises, in writing, as a condition of our not quitting Clio right then, and cutting our losses and time. Now, the first time a change has come up where that promise needs to be implemented, we were told it would not be honored. This resulted in many more hours of back and forth with "customer service". We have wasted two years of integrating our firm with this company, which we now have to undo to go to another service, costing us untold more hours of work. If they had not offered these promises, we would have left Clio during the onboarding process. Although we would not have been happy with our experience with Clio, we wouldn't have felt as strongly about not doing business with this company. Now, we have no option but to leave this service, because we cannot continue to do business with a company that places such little value on their clients and on the promises that they admit were made.

Pros

I have nothing positive to say about Clio at this time. Integrating our firm into their software was a major learning experience, which will guide me with the next software I choose.

Cons

The items added in the time that we have been with Clio have caused no improvement to our use of the product, although they use these additions as an excuse for raising their prices significantly. The "client portal" that they added does not even allow you to see if clients have viewed documents, which their old version did. Their new payment system only adds to their profits, so why would they utilize that as an excuse to pass on additional costs to their clients?

Reason for choosing Clio

Even though Clio was more expensive than our other final possible choices, we were made representations about what this software could do that exceeded the other offerings in assistance with our needs. However, once we started with Clio, we were immediately told that some of those representations were not functions of Clio at all.

### "Clio is the best Law Firm Practice Management Software"

September 15, 2022

5.0

Clio makes being a lawyer so much easier. I strongly recommend Clio.

Pros

Clio is constantly improving and making life as a lawyer so much easier. It's hard enough practicing law, but Clio makes it so much easier to run a successful practice.

Cons

The document automation aspect requires that all special characters in a file name be removed.

### "Perspective of a 5-Lawyer Small Litigation Firm"

February 14, 2023

5.0

Very positive. I like that Clio is customizable and that it offers robust features. Some of the features we use regularly, the bread and butter of our business, but other more advanced or niche features remain unused. However, regardless of what features you use on Clio, the platform does not force you to use or learn all of them.

Pros

Reliability. When I wake up in the morning and get my day going, I know that I can reliably access Clio for information about my cases, contact information of my clients, and I know that I can keep track of my time. Since beginning to use Clio in Mid 2018, I cannot recall a single day where I was unable to access the platform. Plus, when new members or staff join my firm, Clio is intuitive enough for most people to pick up and begin using quickly.

Cons

I appreciate how much development and improvement actually goes into making Clio better. However, one drawback for my business over the years has been tracking outstanding bills, unapproved draft bills, and sorting out what has been paid versus what amounts have yet to be paid. Perhaps some of these issues are user issues, but I think the system should be improved to alert users that draft bills remain in "unapproved".

### "worst customer support possible"

June 5, 2021

1.0

The customer support had been good until the issue with the development team arose. They ought to fire everyone of the people working in that department starting with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\].

Pros

The sales staff are good at staying in touch but once you sign up you never hear from them again.

Cons

The tech support people completely ignore their customers' needs. I have had a tech issue with the G-mail plug in for 3 months with no serious efforts to resolve the issue that are discernable from my end and a refusal to permit me to speak with the IT developers or upper management.

### "First class tech with even more fist class people behind the scenes"

February 24, 2023

5.0

Highly recommend it like anything it's only as good as the data the users put into it and quite pleased in its reliability.

Pros

Clio is always adapting to improve and take feature requests into consideration while balancing innovation with consistency of interface and only incremental changes so as to not frustrate the user experience with too many changes all the ones. Beyond the tech, right from the beginning many years ago Clio stood out in customer service in terms of being very responsive, striving to find a solution to every problem where available, and being straight up in simply admitting that they don't have certain features developed yet and it's not available rather than trying to do a sales job or sugarcoat the fact that there will always be limitations in software meeting everyone's different needs perfectly. It's a very stable platform, secure, and the developers are even aware to do any sort of systemwide updates during times of low usage.

Cons

Maybe not so much a specific Clio issue, but rather mostly us as a user limited capacity challenge, there are many integrations and improvements which we could be adapting into our system but have just become stalled in locking the bandwidth. Quarterly or semiannually review (soft audit) of how each business such as ours is using the software would be beneficial with a systems person from Clio providing a couple recommendations of next steps that our group could take that would have a significant impact on better utilizing the tools.

Customer Service #1 for Clio and Amicus had very poor customer service, constantly just providing the same solution (clear our cache lol) and the problems were so much greater. PCLaw was expensive and too resource intensive to make remote work impossible. Both had challenges trying to be desktop solutions moving into the Cloud whereas Clio was born and created in the Cloud, right when I was moving my practice into the Cloud and had previous poor experiences. In 2012 the Law Society of Alberta advised at that time I was the most cloud computing law practice in Canada and when I came across Clio in 2013/14ish I recognized its superiority compared to past experiences.

### "Whly I like Clio"

August 23, 2022

5.0

Clio brought my practice out of the chaos of solo practice without assistance into the more orderly world of a managed office, at a price I can afford. I can't imagine being without Clio now.

Pros

Clio has made the difference between practice killing me and practice being manageable. I have no formal training in business management, but Clio is accessible for a lawyer who would rather spend time practicing law than looking for account records.

Cons

I would like document automation that takes less cutting and pasting.

Reason for choosing Clio

Ease of use, possibilities of integrations, Clio continues to add features without raising the price, tutorials that work, CUSTOMER SERVICE in all caps.

### "Implementation is tough"

July 3, 2023

4.0

It's cheaper than our prior system. It has more functionality than our prior system. It has tons of integrations with other programs, so we're using it for marketing and robust document generation. We're hoping to get the task sets and workflows set up soon to streamline file opening and operations together with finance and trust accounting.

Pros

Custom sets of templates for client types and matter types is great. There are tons of integrations with so many other programs to add functionality is dizzying. We're still learning all this program can do and trying to maximize our use of it through best practices, but we're very hopeful and optimistic that it's going to make our lives much easier and more organized.

Cons

The implementation by Clio has been less than stellar. They've tried to integrate spreadsheets of information from our prior practice management software, plus other sources to get all of our client and matter data into the program. But getting the data migration specialists on the phone has been difficult. We noticed that one phase of the migration had not gone correctly, so we called and e-mailed like mad to make sure they wouldn't go to the next step of migration until we could get that prior data fixed. They ignored the calls and e-mails and went ahead with the next step. So that just compounded the problem by about 10,000 times. Now, we're having to go back through our spreadsheets to clean up the data again. Then they're going to have to somehow undo the migration steps they've taken already. Then we'll try it again. We've been using it almost 90 days, and we're still not at full usage yet, because the migration is so messed up.

Firm Central hasn't been updated or given additional functionality in well over 5 years. No one else uses it, and it has no integrations with or support from third parties to add any more functionality. West has practically abandoned the product entirely. If they don't want to keep supporting it, then why should we keep using it?

### "CLIO is a life saver "

August 18, 2022

5.0

CLIO is a timesaver. All of my cases are at my finger tips and I just pull up and push a timer to start billing.

Pros

I love the why I am able to see how much money I am spending on each case; how much time i spend on cases all on the front page. This is a very user friendly program that is customizable to my specific business. I am able to set up case management depending on type of case and county of case. There are multiple video on how to use and customer service is awesome!!

Cons

I had no problems integrating this product with my business. The one feature I wish was here is being able to bill separately. I have figured a way to do that however, it takes a minute to make it work for me.

Reason for choosing Clio

It was more appealing to me and the cost vs. benefits to me were more attractive.

### "Clio at a mid-sized, full-service employment defense law firm."

March 24, 2023

4.0

Overall, Clio has been a good choice, and has increased our efficiency as a firm. Due to the sheer number of solutions that Clio provides, we have been able to unify many processes, and scale accordingly as our firm grows. Two years ago, Clio did not offer document management that was robust enough to compete with Dropbox, which is why we use a combination of the two for our practice. However, with Clio's development, if we were evaluating this today, we may have moved our document management to Clio as well.Clio has a lot of flexibility to cater to the processes you need, however, with flexibility does come work. It can take time to setup and upkeep continual maintenance. Lastly, I do want to mention the personnel at Clio. Due to my position, I have interfaced with a lot of personnel at software companies. To date, Clio's staff has been the easiest to work with. In general, they are always very pleasant to speak with, respectful, and interested in helping you.

Pros

The Clio Manage product offers an excellent practice management tool with enough flexibility that we can continue to develop new solutions to any hurdles we face. Primarily, Clio has been instrumental in:-Time Tracking-Data Base Management - for clients, opposing counsel, judges, mediators, etc.-Case Management-Invoicing-Data Analytics - for performance metrics, financial projections, etc.

Cons

Clio offers a lot of powerful solutions, but is not 100% comprehensive. Often, when Clio is missing a feature, support will add it to their list of "feature requests" to be implemented in the future. While I fully appreciate Clio actively working on new features, some of the roadblocks we have hit feel surprising considering the software is built for law firms. This is mentioned in a previous section, but one of our current issues is in our pre-bill review. When discounting line items, they must be discounted at a percentage, rather than a dollar amount, which was not a problem we had faced in previous software.

### "A single source of truth and the center of our practice management universe"

February 1, 2023

5.0

Pros

Clio is the center of our law practice management universe. It is our single source of truth and a trusted and dependable confidant for our robust case management needs.

Cons

Clio (Manage) could benefit from enhanced features for CRM purposes. Clio's companion product, Clio Grow, is intended as a standalone offering--with limited integration between the two platforms--to satisfy those needs, but the disconnect between the respective platforms is a difficult bridge to gap. Other areas in which Clio could use some enhancement--but nevertheless hits the mark--are billing functions (invoice generation, external sharing, etc.) and document management.

Amazing. I cannot imagine running a firm of my size without it. Amazing value. Also, customer service has vastly improved.

Pros

The ease of use and full integration with the other tools I use (QB online, MS 365) makes Clio the almost all-in-one tool a small practice like me needs to get up and running and growing.

Cons

Clio payments - I do not like that Clio makes it harder for my clients to pay e-Check as a first option before CC payments. Also, there was a time when it took a very long wait time to get customer service to answer a call. This had improved greatly.

### "What I Like Most About Clio"

August 5, 2019

4.0

Clio had a long learning curve. That said, any software that has wide capability will have a long learning curve. However, the support team has been very helpful. It does not work for me to try to read articles to learn how to use the system, I appreciate being able to get someone on the phone or on chat who can simply show me how to do what I want to do.

Pros

As a solo practicing attorney for almost a quarter century, tracking time, preparing and sending out bills has been my least favorite activity, and the place where I have lost revenue and had upset clients. My experience is that clients don't appreciate it when bills are sent timely or when they receive billing after six to twelve months of work - they really prefer regular billing. Clio has revolutionized the billing and collection part of my solo practice environment. Now that I have learned how to create clients and matters and to input time, it is a simple once a month task to create professional monthly client bills which I can print and snail mail, email, or send with the LawPay connection and the client can "click through" the email bill to pay with credit card.

Cons

I cannot figure out how to set up or use the form template function. When I have tried it does not really work and I have stopped trying to use this. I would very much like to create some form engagement letters. My work is mainly transaction, not so much litigation. At first it was difficult to figure out how to prepare a nice looking flat-fee for a project type bill. However, with the updates I have been able to customize bills to have both hourly fee bills and flat-fee bills.

Reason for choosing Clio

Clio's presence in the legal business marketplace. That it was not a sales and marketing CRM that someone was trying to "shoe horn" into usefulness for lawyers, but was designed for use by lawyers in the business of managing a legal services business.

### "One of the first users of Clio and still give five stars."

November 15, 2022

5.0

Overall experience has been fantastic, and I have no intentions of ever-changing software. I will retire using Clio. Clio, along with Clio Grow, has enabled us to develop a smooth process for evaluating potential new clients using an intake questionnaire and customizing a pipeline.

Pros

It's too difficult to describe what is best, I could not manage my practice without this software. It is incredibly user friendly and easy to learn. I use pretty much all aspects of the software on a daily basis and have been using it for more than 10 years. My practice has grown from just one attorney, me, to now four along with paralegals and clerks. Clio has made the growth seamless.

Cons

I don't have any complaints whatsoever. The software has been essential to my practice in all ways.

I used these at other firms. When I opened up my own practice I chose to use Clio.

### "Excellent all in one legal case management with lots of integration "

August 10, 2021

5.0

Clio is really one of the leaders in legal technology and for good reason.

Pros

They have a huge library of integration apps to connect everything in one place. It can be tailored for multiple practice areas and multiple size firm.

Cons

Since the tool is so expansive it doesn’t always specialize well. I have one practice area and have a solo firm. It can do anything I need it to do but there are a lot of features and things that I don’t need. But the price is reasonable enough that it doesn’t feel wasteful.

Reason for choosing Clio

More integrations and good reviews from fellow attorneys.

### "Clio is the Tool You Need"

December 16, 2022

5.0

I enjoy using Clio Manage and added Clio Grow which has been a good addition.

Pros

Clio Manage is an easy to use legal matter management cloud-based program. It is comprehensive and pretty intuitive to use. Customer support is very good and responsive. Features are often added based on user input.

Cons

I like almost everything about this software. One nit-picking "con" is that the layout on the top of a printed invoice doesn't line up with a two window envelope. This doesn't really matter to me much any more because I use the online billing features which are really good.

Reason for choosing Clio

Clio offered a good user-interface, comprehensive features, all at a reasonable price.

### "One Stop Shop for Small Law Office Management"

January 20, 2023

5.0

Pros

Great bang for the buck. Clio is a full suite of software for time entries, billing, trust account management, contact management, and document organization. Out clients love the ability to upload documents securely for us to use in their matters. Ability to access through a web browser makes it easy to work from anywhere as well.

Cons

Slight learning curve to get used to the new software after having used Amicus for almost 20 years. Small hiccups in transitioning our Amicus database over, BUT it was solved in a timely manner and we were able to clean up a few other items on our own.

Price of Amicus was getting unreasonable for what we perceived as a lack of updating and growth over time. It was no longer worth what we had to pay for it.

### "Clio for Law Practice Management "

January 23, 2024

5.0

Excellent. I have no real issues with the product, which is actually a great compliment. If you are thinking about your practice management tools, it probably means they are not working as well as they should.

Pros

Ease of use and reliability. Entering time is the bane of every lawyers existence. This makes it about as easy as it’s going to get.

Cons

No real downsides. The only area I can think of which might be improved is the ease of entering contact information for multiple clients on the same matter.
