Owner and Operator Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Super Customizable Quoting and Payments Software" August 20, 2025 3.0 Pros I like how you are assigned a customer service rep and they are very responsive. Also the quoting options are endless and you can make tons of custom templates Cons I find it quite expensive and editing or undoing transactions is quite difficult. I also find the payment processing lead times to be quite long. Alternatives considered [Financial Cents](https://www.capterra.com/p/186837/Financial-Cents/) Reason for choosing Ignition My Business Partner preferred Ignition and was used to it Review Source MH Mathew H. Technology Partner Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great features, costly for volume or all features." February 20, 2025 4.0 Good experience. The pricing structure is not as competitive especially when using it for smaller engagements. It’s very difficult to link an existing stripe account. Pros Great client interface. Fairly easy to implement. Excellent onboarding and support staff. Offers a lot of features, at an additional cost. Cons Cost increases significantly for each features. No payment integrations except Stripe. Cost gets non-competitive after the add-ons. Without the add-on features the program lacks features included worh other packages Alternatives considered [Proposify](https://www.capterra.com/p/133332/Proposify/) Reason for choosing Ignition Ignition offered more support and larger packages for proposals. Switched from [PandaDoc](https://www.capterra.com/p/131735/PandaDoc/) Ignition offers the ability to present a much better proposal and layout for more complex engagements. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Administrative Specialist Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Cool Product but Pricey" January 12, 2026 3.0 Pros Very cool concept for software to make it easy to send and receive engagement letters and payment. Onboarding process is very thorough, and their support team is extremely helpful. They have very secure payment storage as well, which put our clients minds at ease. Cons It is VERY expensive. We also found out that our current project management software did not integrate with Ignition, so we could not use the software. As a result, we could not get any refund. They only gave (I believe) a 1 week free trial before asking you to sign up/pay with them, which is not long enough to determine if the software will work for you. Review Source Kelly A. Practice Manager Accounting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Streamlined client onboarding!" May 14, 2026 5.0 Overall, our experience with Ignition has been positive. It helped streamline our client onboarding and proposal process, making it easier to stay organized and reduce manual administrative work. Having a central place to manage proposals created a more efficient workflow and made the experience feel more professional for both our team and our clients. While there was some initial setup and a bit of a learning curve, once everything was in place it became a valuable part of our process. Pros Ignition has made the onboarding of our new clients much easier. The proposal process felt much more streamlined and organized, and having everything in one platform reduced a lot of manual follow-up and admin work. It made the whole experience feel more professional and efficient. We have also used the platform to reissue letters of engagement for existing clients, helping us to get everything in one place. Cons At times, finding specific settings or making small changes felt less intuitive than expected, so there were moments where it took extra clicks to get where we needed to go, but once you've figured it out its good! Review Source SF Sarah F. Director of Human Resources Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Streamline your Sales with Ignition!" April 18, 2025 5.0 Overall, this is a fantastic platform and has allowed my company and my team to simplify and streamline our sales and assist our cashflow. Pros I appreciate the ability that Ignition has that allows us to create our proposals as well as ACH authorizations in one place. I love that it has the capability to sync to QuickBooks Online. Cons I wish the client payments were processed faster with an affordable option for next day deposit. Alternatives considered [QuickBooks Online](https://www.capterra.com/p/190778/QuickBooks-Online/) Reason for choosing Ignition We found that Ignition was better for the types of proposals and clients that we service. Review Source CB Chris B. Managing Partner Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ignition Will Help Themselves to Your Money Unjustly" March 28, 2025 1.0 Pros Recurring billing was nice, and having all engagement letters in one place was helpful. Cons Billed me for an annual subscription that had been closed for 6 months at the same time they billed me for a monthly subscription. When pressed about getting my money back I was met with total incompetence. I was told, "the computer randomly billed you." When I asked about getting my money back I was told, "expect to be without funds for 7 business days." Do not do business with these people - They will take money they are not entitled to, and put as many barriers in place as possible to delay returning your funds. BUYER BEWARE! Switched from [Intuit ProConnect Tax](https://www.capterra.com/p/249727/ProConnect-Tax/) Ignition was promised to be a more turnkey and complete product, but no one mentioned they'd help themselves to my bank account outside of my contract multiple times in one day. Review Source KM Kaylee M. Director Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great at what they do." January 16, 2025 4.0 Pros A streamlined proposal process that looks great and professional, and helps automate the engagement process Cons Pricing makes it unrealistic for small businesses. Being only one stage of the process makes it difficult to work between Ignition with another practice management solution to manage everything else like projects, tasks, etc. For many an all in one solution works better even though Ignition can integrate with many other PM platforms. Alternatives considered [TaxDome](https://www.capterra.com/p/186749/TaxDome/) Reason for choosing Ignition Can offer client multiple proposal options. Switched from [QuickBooks Online](https://www.capterra.com/p/190778/QuickBooks-Online/) Can offer client multiple proposal options, able to sign right on the engagement letter to accept. Review Source Beth S. Administrator Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Proposal Software Available!" November 21, 2020 5.0 It has been so easy to work with Practice Ignition, and anytime I can't figure out how to do something, our account manager \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has been really quick to help me! He even created a workflow map for our process which showed us what we needed to work on/could automate to help our business even more! Pros We initially switched to Practice Ignition because it had the ability to collect payments when clients signed proposals plus it could do the reoccurring billing for us at the same time instead of us having to set it all up in QB. Clients can update their own payment settings, an the proposal process is really easy. Recently, they made changes which allow us to present multiple options within one proposal, as well as do variable billing and it has made things even better! Their support and webinars are incredibly helpful and we are so glad we switched to them! They really understand what we need for proposals and the bulk creation through support will definitely be helpful when tax season comes! Cons The thing we liked the least was we couldn't send options within the same proposal like we did in our old proposal software, but that's changed now! I think the only other issue we really still have is the ability to collect international payments Alternatives considered [FieldPulse](https://www.capterra.com/p/153475/FieldPulse/) Reason for choosing Ignition Practice Ignition seemed like they were working on more things that we needed and the customer support was much better when going through the free trial! Switched from [Nusii](https://www.capterra.com/p/138512/Nusii/) Nusii doesn't collect payments Review Source LB Lori B. Office Manager Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Streamlining Client Engagement and Billing for Accounting Firms" April 4, 2025 5.0 Pros Ignition is most helpful with simplified client onboarding processes, integrated billing and payments, customizable proposals and service transparency. Cons I do wish Ignition integrated with more of our current software. Review Source TS Terri S. President Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Ignition is the Answer to Our Proposal Headache" March 7, 2025 5.0 Customer service has been great! They help to set us up for success. Pros How easy it was to create a new proposal. Saved a lot of time. Cons Haven't found anything we don't like so far. It has been 4 months and we are very happy. Alternatives considered [Canva](https://www.capterra.com/p/168956/Canva/) Reason for choosing Ignition Customer service, Referrals by colleagues Review Source MB Michele B. Accountant Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great proposal and engagement letter software for accountants" August 17, 2024 5.0 Great, the ease of renewing proposals and overall link with our accounting software ultimately saves us time. Pros The ability to use multiple domains within one practice and have our engagement letter sent with our proposals, so they are dealt with upfront. Cons I have to use external pricing software to get bespoke prices for clients before building the proposal in Ignition to make the use of the services easier. Review Source AB Angelina B. Director Accounting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great product" July 9, 2023 5.0 Great. The onboarding process was very thorough and this software became a key part of my business. Pros How easy it is to use, I use Ignition on a daily basis for drafting proposals and collecting payments. It has saved so much time instead of me chasing manual payments. Cons The fact that it is missing AML functionality in NZ. This would round it off nicely. Reason for choosing Ignition payment collection capabilities. Review Source GS Graham S. CEO Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ignition is one of the key programmes in my app stack" September 8, 2022 5.0 Been amazing from the first call to current use Pros The ease of use and the in-depth onboarding made sure my templates were ready and easy to access. It allows me to send through proposals quickly and track if or how often they have been viewed Cons In South Africa, we don't yet have stripe to its not linked to any other subscription payment method compatible in South Africa Reason for choosing Ignition The features and ease of use were far superior Ignition had also just raised a lot of money which I knew would be used to enhance the features Review Source KK Katy K. Accounting Support Officer Accounting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Amazing and Easy to Use Software" November 30, 2021 5.0 We have been using it for around 2 years now and it has made giving life so much easier! Sending and giving quotes to clients as well as detailed description of all of our services has made it so much smoother. Pros Definitely the ability to make payment/conditions around when clients pay. It makes it very flexible. It is also quite easy to use, in particular the classic PI. Cons I haven't had much training with the New Proposal Editor but it is quite a lot to look at. Review Source NK Nyoro K.

Principal Accounting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ignition has changed our future processes" May 7, 2024 5.0 We've found the Ignition product to be of benefit in that our processes are automated and standardized throughout the organization, which has improved our efficiency and assisted in minimizing staff required for this task. Pros Ignition provides a seamlessly automated platform for billing and proposal generation Cons The initial setup of templates, in our case, was quite specific and involved significant time at the management level Review Source CI Chris I. Client Relationship Manager Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I absolutely love Practice Ignition" December 5, 2020 5.0 Practice Ignition has made engaging with our clients a seamless process. We deal with a large volume of clients and with how easy and efficient the systems are, we are able to quickly send proposals, collect payment with virtually no administrative burden, and have great reporting around every step of the process. I can not recommend this product enough, it is truly one of my favorite programs that we work with inside of our firm and the the support team is just as great to work with! Thank you so much!! Pros \- Fast - Intuitive - Option to collect payment in order to sign - Low amount of admin needed - Amazing support team, fast turn around - Scalable - Open to feedback, they actually listen!! Cons I legitimately do not have a single con that I would give. the only thing even close would be there is not currently a way to display a discount for a service item directly from the standard cost of the service. This is something that I have left feedback on and is already slated to be adjusted in a future update. to my previous point, they actually listen to feedback which is amazing. Review Source JH Julia H. President Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Proposal & Collection Made Easy" May 30, 2023 5.0 I am automating all of my billing for maintenance work for existing clients. I am also setting up new clients with proposals for advisory and maintenance. They know how much to expect each month. I no longer need to chase payments. Pros I love the built in proposals for Practice Forward and general use. I was very easy to set my clients up on automatic billing. No more collections or A/R for me! Cons I liked everything! The training is great! Reason for choosing Ignition I am part of the Practice Forward program. All proposals and engagement letters are built in.

Pros Ease of use for the clients, and able to control some of the payment options. Clients managing their own CC expirations etc is also nice. Also, the recurring billing I don't have to execute each month - the system just does it. Cons Initial template setup can feel daunting, but using their help and customer service can speed past that process. Reason for choosing Ignition Combination of e-signature and auto billing. Review Source TO Tricia O. Owner Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Absolutely love PI" December 1, 2020 5.0 Practice Ignition has been a game changer for us from the moment I pulled the trigger on it. It revolutionized our process for creating proposals, is an enormous time saver and it creates a process that is standardized and consistently the awesome experience we want our clients to have. We close more engagements and at better fees than ever before. I can't say enough about how it changed my firm and put us on the path to the firm I really want. It was the start of all the progressive ideas we have put into place because it gave me the space and the revenues to recreate my firm. The team at PI can't be beat. I am seriously crushing on all of them.😍🎉👏👍 Pros It automates the preparation of proposals, it makes them look professional, it allows us to be paid sooner, the team at practice ignition is absolutely incredible.

President Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy & Professional Proposals" July 12, 2023 5.0 Very user friendly. I can quickly generate a proposal from templates and send them to a prospect. I can also see when they have opened and viewed the proposal. Once the prospect signs it initiates a work item in Karbon.
