### "Great Product- ONLY Billing Software Used!"

September 18, 2017

5.0

Pros

I have been using this software for the past two years. We use it throughout our entire firm and I have never heard anyone say anything that they would change or add to it. I use it on a daily basis and it meets all of my needs. I am able to edit and review timekeeper time, keep track of our expenses, and generate statements that are completely customizable to how I want them. There are SO many different aspects of Tabs including accounts receivable, generating reports, entering time and expenses, and so much more!

Cons

I wish that I were able to delete multiple fee entries in Tabs. I am only able to do this in Practice Master, which is synched with Tabs.

### "Working with TABS is Easy"

February 21, 2017

4.0

I have been working with TABS 3 for over 10 years including the Accounts Receivable, General Ledger and Trust add on. I haven't used Practice Master yet, but hope to soon. The software is very easy to use and has a lot of flexibility. I rarely need technical support because of the stability of the product but when I do, the support is excellent. I would recommend these products to any small to medium sized law firm.

Pros

The flexibility in billing. Each of our attorneys like their statements a little different, and TABS is able to accommodate everyone.

Cons

I do not like the way Contacts integrates with the Client input. We have multiple matters under the same client each with a different billing person/address and sometimes this poses a problem.

### "Excellent software suite and great support."

July 16, 2019

5.0

We have used the STI suite of products since 1990 and added PracticeMaster in 2003. The software is user friendly, highly customizable and the support is excellent.

Pros

The flexibility of customizing reports and customizing areas of practice in PracticeMaster.

Cons

Would like to see more financial/dashboard options.

### "Tabs3 Review"

January 16, 2019

5.0

It has been a good 6 months working with Tabs3 Software and overall I like the speed and functionality it is comprised of.

Pros

I like the various different types of functions that this software offers. It makes it easy to get numerous different tasks taken care of without having to leave the site. Overall it is easy to navigate and worth getting.

Cons

I dislike that, to go back and correct errors in features within this software such as the billing feature, it isn't as easy and usually requires me to exit out of the software to do so.

### "TABS3"

November 16, 2020

5.0

It is a value for money software.

Pros

After sales customer service and support from the technical staff. Ease of use. Version upgrades.

### "Featurers/Use/User Friendly"

February 2, 2017

4.0

I feel that Tabs needs to progress with more user friendly. Non-accounting employees have difficulty. However, I do have an accounting background and would like more features regarding the following: Reports that have easy ability to exclude, categories and or/timekeepers. For example; the choice should all but.... WIP reports need to have an option to not include credit balances. A/R reports should have the option to exclude credit balances. The export to excel should be more like (in appearance) Quickbooks export to excel. Seems really old school. Need more customization. Trust accounting- needs a transfer payment to other account, needs editing like Tabs3 has and more reports cash receipts etc.

Pros

Time entry is great.

Cons

Reports and export of information

This software streamlines the billing an collection process in this law firm. The ease and accuracy streamline the case management and cash-flow process. It is a workhorse!

### "Great billing software"

June 14, 2018

4.0

Pros

It is easy to use and requires minimal training for those who need to enter time for billing. Generating statements is also easy

Cons

There are so many options for different reports. The report names are also not very helpful when trying to determine what reports you need

### "TABS REVIEW LMD RMW 2-2-17"

February 2, 2017

5.0

I like the product! There are a few things that I would like to see added....such as: why doesn't it generate the 1096 form? it prints the 1099 report and forms, but then I need to manually generate the 1096 to the IRS.

Pros

integration with modules

Cons

doesn't print the 1096 form ; every accounts payable entry interfaces with TABS 3 - and not every AP invoice needs to be interfaced with a client invoice - why isn't here a way to by-pass this?; inability to highlight items on an invoice - on a case-by-case basis, i.e. high light amount due

### "Excellent customer support"

March 3, 2017

4.0

The support staff was so very patient (as I did not have a clue), knowledgeable about how to correct why I was unable to download the upgrade. He stayed on the phone and walked me through each step (additional steps) on getting the download to start. Super friendly guy and I wanted to take the time to thank him again and to let his supervisors know what an asset he is to your support staff, as he was able to talk a very frustrated user down from my frustration....TOTALLY AWESOME PERSON AND WONDERFUL JOB!!!

Cons

Not very easy to access financials, payments etc. Too many steps to input certain items.

Every day is smoother.

Pros

Everything! The people are fantastic, easy to reach, supportive and really understand what they are doing. No delays. Updates are effortless and well-done. Maintenance is awesome and worth every penny. Flexibility in use with other programs is absolutely flawless. This is a joy to use every day. When updating time records, there is a flawless connection with everything, which is crucial for transparency with clients when inquiring about balances due.

### "Great software"

July 3, 2019

5.0

I have been using it for over 20 years. It is easy to learn and use for new employees. Improvements and updates are helpful and easy to install.

Pros

I use everything except for PracticeMaster. All the components work well together and allow me to manage our firm effectively and efficiently. We use the report writer for customized reports, the trust account manager for managing trust accounts.

Cons

The cost of maintenance and the increased cost to platinum are a little more than what I'd like to pay. We have not moved to platinum for this reason. It might make sense to other firms, but for us, the cost is not worth it.

### "Fantastic Software"

February 2, 2017

5.0

I have worked with TABS for the past 10 years and have enjoyed working with it since day one. They constantly strive to improve on the software and do a fantastic job in that area. It seems like I am always learning something new that makes my job easier. When I call, the staff members are friendly and knowledgeable. I would have no problems recommending this software to others

Pros

The software is easy to use and if you need help it is only a phone call away.

Cons

There is nothing that I do not like about the software

### "Tabs 3 has helped significantly."

February 2, 2017

5.0

Once you're done with the setup of clients and rate tables, etc., the rest pretty much does itself. Very functional. The reports feature is great once you figure out what kind of report you want, and the parameters vary, so that's good too. You enter your fees, your costs, any payments, produce bills and you're done. Billing in the office prior to this software would take forever, and it was done in simple word processing software. Our lives are much easier now.

Pros

Reports, A/R reports, collections reports

July 31, 2019

I keep everything about my business in Tabs3, PracticeMaster and the Tabs3 Financials. When I am out of the office I get to my data with Tabs3 Connect.

Pros

It is feature rich (can do everything I ask it to do) and is easy to use.

Cons

Very little not to like. Even the price is surprisingly OK. They don't want to be the most expensive - just the best.

October 31, 2019

4.0

Assigning and tracking tasks was much-simpler, especially when handling remotely located associates across the country.

Pros

It was quick deployment with the firm of more than 100 associates, putting all tasks under full transparency. Setting up restrictions and permissions for multiple user levels was done within days.

Cons

There were issues of crashing reported however they were spread out across a year's usage. There were concerns about the recovery of documents or data after accidental deletion.
