### "Everything I need to run my business"

June 28, 2016

5.0

I came across freshbooks when a fellow freelancer recommended it, and have loved using it ever since. I love the ability to send out professional looking quotes and estimates per email, and also see whether the customer has viewed my email or not. My customers appreciate being able to pay online, and I get paid fast.

Pros

Detailed reporting, ease of use, great app for iphone and ipad, ability to accept credit cards, recurring invoices and recurring payments.

Cons

Can't set up a task with tax automatically attached to it.

March 28, 2019

5.0

Pros

Things are not scattered in too many places. U can enjoy different functionality of different tools in a single package.

Cons

I think nothing is 100 percent perfect. something can be 99.9 percent perfect. Just use once , compare and feel the difference.

### "Freshbooks Invoicing: Efficient and Very User-Friendly"

December 2, 2015

5.0

Pros

Freshbooks customer service is second to NONE! I don't have hoards of clients yet, so I get to use Freshbooks for free right now. Super helpful for the tiny budget and cash flow. Freshbooks invoices are user-friendly for me and my clients. The client PayPal payment option is easy for my clients to use and makes me look uber professional, too. Freshbooks just makes me look good from every business angle! I LOVE Freshbooks and the great people who work for me there!

Cons

Um, nothing? I haven't needed to utilize more of Freshbooks options to know what I like least about anything. I'm totally pleased with what I am able to do with sending invoices and receiving payments.

### "Loving using Freshbooks for my small business!"

November 9, 2017

5.0

Easily manage my freelance design accounting, invoicing, and time tracking.

Pros

I started freelancing last year, and chose Freshbooks to manage my time, expenses, and send invoices. They make all of this dead simple, in a stylish design that stays out of the way and helps me save time.

Cons

There is little to say here, I only wish I could add team members for less money. Really though, they are still really competitive here.

### "Great Product, Just not for me"

September 5, 2017

4.0

This is great for self-employed folks

Pros

This is a great accounting software for those that do most of their business online. It was easy to use, great report templates, invoices, etc.

Cons

The price is what did it for me. I cannot sell a monthly fee to my clients when my company already utilizes QuickBooks, which yes has a cost, but it is a one time cost versus a monthly fee.

### "Feature rich but user experience is awful"

October 18, 2018

2.0

Pros

It's very feature-complete, with support for timetracking, invoicing, payments, etc. as well as several different payment systems available.

Cons

The interface looks like it was last updated 15 years ago, and the overall UI design is very lacking.

Response from FreshBooks

October 29, 2018

Hey Timothea, thank you for taking the time to share your review of FreshBooks. It sounds like you may have been using the classic FreshBooks (our original software) as opposed to the new FreshBooks, which has a more modern UI. If you're interested in trying out the new FreshBooks, you can create a new trial account at https://www.freshbooks.com or reach out to our Support Team to see if your classic account is eligible to migrate. Our Support Team can be reached at 1-866-303-6061 Monday through Friday, 8am-8pm EST or support@freshbooks.com. We're happy to help get this sorted out for you! ^DM

### "Easy, Convenient Management"

October 24, 2018

4.0

With lots of clients and schedule that I need to track, I needed an app just like FreshBooks to keep my commitments in just one tab and show me an organized list of what I would need to attend to.

Pros

I loved that it lets me access it across different devices like phone or laptop.

Cons

A tutorial on my initial test would have really helped familiarize myself with the interface, but overall it was easy to grasp.

### "Great Invoicing - Easy to Use"

July 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

Such an easy piece of online software to use. Remembers previous rates, templates, clients and also structures that you set in place. Very user-friendly, even for those not so technical. Also enables you to look over previous invoices and notice what has and hasn't been paid for.

Cons

I think the freemium model has recently gone, otherwise great to work with. No issues at all it is so simple to use!

### "A fresh solution and approach to accounting software"

April 21, 2017

4.0

Being a small business, we tend to look for services or products that provide value in relation to cost. Freshbooks provides just this. It offers a flexible pricing plan, custom branding, credit card payment gateway integration, recurring subscriptions, and collecting online payments all through the same system. The other advantage in my opinion is that Freshbooks offers a fully featured mobile app, so whether you are using iOS, or Andriod, you can have access to your accounting software wherever you are. I would encourage you to look at Freshbooks as a solution for your accounting needs and take advantage of their 30-day free trial.

Pros

ease of use, cost, customization, payment integration, having everything in one place

Cons

### "Great and easy to use product for small business invoicing. "

April 9, 2018

5.0

Easy to use tool to invoice my clients.

Pros

I am using the free version and never had an issue with it. I've been using it for almost 10 years. The interface is clean and simple, and I love that I can track my projects using the computer and also on my phone with the timer feature. I don't do enough with my business to need to upgrade to a paid version but I would consider it if I went freelance full-time.

Cons

The invoice template is a little dated looking, but it doesn't bother me enough to figure out how to change that.

### "Finance calculation evaluation"

October 2, 2018

4.0

Wonderful platform and really easy to manage all the customers. Very easy to create reports including tax reports. intuitive accounting functions that enables faster processing and opening multiple clients on the same page.

Pros

I liked the wide variety of features that the software provides including sending a quote to a client. Personalized invoices that can be sent to clients adds a good personal touch. It is really easy to get paid by your clients including the feature for late fees. It is also easy to calculate the expense of one's own business.

Cons

Some of the reporting functionalities can be improved. Minor glitches and bugs that is prevalent while moving from one page to another. Despite that it is a wonderful software for small businesses.

### "Feedback on FreshBook"

December 25, 2018

5.0

That would be great if there were some toy examples or dummy data that users who just want to try the software see how it works. Seeing the overall picture with the dummy data might help. With one click add the toy data and clear the data if users want to try their own data.

Pros

I like dashboard everything users need are there at one glance you can see it. Navigation was easy. The left panel is great! I like categories for spending and others, graphs for reports are really nice. The web version is fast, navigation is super fast. I liked the ads on google play. It could be better if you add the Dashboard as well.

Cons

Starting the application on the demo needed some works. The website asks for Name, Address, etc, I would like to suggest to make it as simple as possible. Users can fill their info later.

Cons

the current version lack some advanced features. in my opinion the price is a little bit high... there should be some other monitization process that can make it cheaper, maybe with addition of adds or something

### "Simple. Easy. Love it!"

August 12, 2016

I used Freshbooks original for my contracting services. As I started moving into seasonal work and started another company in a different field, I continued to use Freshbooks for invoicing clients because it was so simple. Things are more complex now and I'm trying to find a solution that works for me but right now, my wife and I have 3 separate companies and so to get the best use of it, I need 3 accounts, which I don't have so it's been interesting trying to use a single account. We have a Hypnotherapy practice, a Performance Mentoring service, and a Group Coaching and Mastermind program. It's the two of us and a team of VA's.

Pros

Easy Customer support is epic

Cons

Doesn't work to combine multiple accounts or businesses

### "Automates invoicing so we no longer have to do it"

May 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

We have our invoicing set up in templates that automatically go out monthly and pull in all of the charges and expenses. It's a huge time saver.

Cons

The expense reporting is tedious when going through a large number of expenses. I'd love to see a table view that could quickly be updated instead of having to go through each expense one at a time. It's pretty but feels like form over function.

It is easy to use and user-friendly in mobile app.

Pros

FreshBooks can handle mutliple complex accounting projects and is know for its fast deliver response. The best thing about using FreshBook is that is is mobile user-friendly and access to use anywhere as long as there is wifi.

Cons

FreshBook could use a better reporting feature. Some automatic expenses do not work well. Reporting data cannot be opened in mobile, a feature that needs an update.
