I am satisfied with it Pros This software is really awesome, it helped me in various ways.. And one of it was in invoice strategy.

Full Stack Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Look no further!A simple and straight forward all in one platform" August 6, 2024 5.0 Pros Clientary has been a life saver since we implemented it 2years ago,from making digital contracts,keeping track of clients projects,billing for time and invoicing it is just a breeze,plus I can add time and billable items to a project or invoice.I also appreciate how user friendly and efficient Clientary is. Cons Nothing however you have to integrate in the billing systems yourself but it is easy. Switched from [FreshBooks](https://www.capterra.com/p/142390/FreshBooks/) FreshBooks had everything we yarned for and ever since it was implemented we have been over the edge of our competitors. Review Source NS Nishtha S. Software developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Perfect for project management" November 18, 2023 3.0 Pros I like the time tracking feature which helps us to generate billing for project. Its very easy to use, simple flexible and comes with wide range of good features which enhance the team productivity. Cons I like the tool but there is room for improvement. To load the dashboard it takes sometimes 4-5 minutes which is very annoying. Review Source JW Jason W. Web/Media Professional Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Hands Down the Best Tool for Free-Lancers" November 8, 2022 5.0 After searching for many tools, I landed on this one. I searched Bonsai, FiverrWorkspace, Toggl, FreeAgent, Harvest, Freshbooks, MotivApp, CushionApp and this one is the overall winner with making the whole workflow super easy. I can easily add a client, create an estimate, client approves the estimate, I think create a project from the estimate, and invoice a retainer on the project, client pays the invoice, I track time and expenses on the project, then invoice the project, client pays invoice, done. It's really smooth going through the entire process. Clientary does it right. Pros I've been using Clientary (Ronin) since 2017 and it is hands down the best tool for a freelancer to track time, clients, projects, invoice, and get paid quickly online. I'm in this every single day and find that it makes it so easy to do these day to day tracking items to make sure all work is accounted for and time is paid for. It's an indispensable tool and have yet to find anything out there that does this better. Cons The only con and feature I'd love to see added would be more visual stats, reports, dashboard items, etc. For example, take a look at the tool cushionapp.com. I do wish Clientary had some visuals like this, and some better reports/widgets. And with recent updates, I'm a little worried that they might get some "featuritis", where they start adding too many features, and then it no longer becomes a simple tool. I also miss the old name "Ronin" was such a great name, as it means "One without a master" and was so great for freelancers, but I understand the reason for the name change to expand their client base. Alternatives considered [FreshBooks](https://www.capterra.com/p/142390/FreshBooks/)[Harvest](https://www.capterra.com/p/75598/Harvest/)[Bonsai.io](https://www.capterra.com/p/181724/Bonsai-io/)[FreeAgent](https://www.capterra.com/p/122008/FreeAgent/)[Toggl Track](https://www.capterra.com/p/247745/Toggl/) Reason for choosing Clientary All the others seemed very clunky or too many features that made it too complex. Clientary does the essentials effectively. Review Source TC Tanner C. Vice President Graphic Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple & Efficient Software" November 8, 2022 5.0 We’ve really enjoyed using Clientary and rely on it daily. We generate quotes, keep track of all of our leads and clients, send out invoices and produce monthly reports to measure how our business is doing. Pros We love how easy it is to use Clientary and how quickly one can become proficient with it. It’s a great tool for small businesses and can do as much or as little as you need it to. Cons I would love to see a few things switched up in the quoting & invoicing as they relate to active & past projects, but it doesn’t prevent me from using the software Switched from [FreshBooks](https://www.capterra.com/p/142390/FreshBooks/) Just couldn’t do everything we wanted to in Freshbooks, and found Ronin/Clientary to have what was missing Review Source BH Ben H. Head Honcho Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Simple, effective, and looks great." January 17, 2023 4.0 This solved my problem of simple, easy to use proposals and invoices that I could make look exactly how I want them to look. It also tracks expenses and hours worked and makes it easy to bill them on to the client. Pros Clientary is super easy to get up and running, with almost zero learning curve. It also looks great from a client perspective straight out of the box. But where this really shines is in the customisability of invoices and proposals. You can literally design anything you want in HTML/CSS and then just drop in tags where you want things displayed. It's amazing! Cons The task management is poor and not a replacement for other dedicated PM tools. No custom fields for tasks, no file uploads etc. Alternatives considered [Agiled](https://www.capterra.com/p/206203/Agiled/)[ClickUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/158833/ClickUp/) Reason for choosing Clientary Simpler and more focussed. Switched from [Plutio](https://www.capterra.com/p/179406/Plutio/) Plutio tried to do everything, and didn't do it well or with stability. Clientary is the opposite. Stable, with s smaller feature set that just works! Review Source JC Jehoshaph C. Founder & CTO Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "About Clientary" November 8, 2022 5.0 Overall good. Pros Ease of integration, I was able to setup an account and have my employees on boarded in no time.I like the ability for my clients to view my invoices and let me know when they have. Cons No Payoneer integration. We use Payoneer and Paypal to accept payments, and currently I have to manually manage Payoneer payments. Alternatives considered [Quicken](https://www.capterra.com/p/151854/Quicken/)[QuickBooks Online](https://www.capterra.com/p/190778/QuickBooks-Online/) Reason for choosing Clientary The prices point was better and it did what I needed. Review Source DC Dale C. CEO Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent Way to Start and Run Your Business" November 8, 2022 4.0 Clientary has been one of the best since we started the company in 2005. Pros Clientary has been with us since the beginning giving us options to create our own stylized invoices and helping to understand overall company goals. Cons Still missing options to create estimates for prospects that remain outside of the daily workflow. Switched from [Billings Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/212836/Billings-Pro/) Switch from Billings Pro for additional online features that just made sense.

Pros A great program for managing CRM operations, we also use it to issue and track invoices, a good program for managing projects in general, including expenses, offers, and others, very suitable for accountants, engineers, and lawyers. It helps in facilitating work and saving time and effort. Cons Although this rarely happens, but sometimes the issuance of invoices may take too long. It is preferable to update the program interface. With the addition of new features. Switched from [Houzz Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/199689/Houzz-Pro/) To take advantage of more features that facilitate work and help get it done quickly. Review Source Aniket G.
