Automation of Expense Reporting and Billing

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates FreshBooks from other similar products?

FreshBooks's user-friendliness makes billing clients and processing payments a snap. Time is money, so make the most of yours by taking use of FreshBooks' helpful time-saving options, like regular invoicing and expense monitoring.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

While FreshBooks excels as an invoicing and accounting tool for small firms, it may not provide the functionality required by larger companies. Because of its higher price tag compared to competing products, FreshBooks may be out of reach for certain smaller enterprises.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I appreciate FreshBooks' straightforward interface. Tools like automated billing and spending reporting have been really helpful. However, I have discovered a few flaws, such as a scarcity of possible connectors and weak reporting tools. I've found FreshBooks to be very useful despite these reservations.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Accounting and invoicing are simplified with FreshBooks, making it a great choice for small businesses. FreshBooks may be used to automate a wide variety of mundane but necessary tasks, including as invoicing and expense monitoring.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Enables Productivity

FreshBooks is the accounting alternative

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates FreshBooks from other similar products?

Our accounting services and processes are managed through the constant help of FreshBooks, an accounting tool that is responsible for keeping in order and securely each of our accounts in our company, FreshBooks started with us in view of the problem of keeping automated all our accounting part, and we found a great platform that greatly facilitates the work of our entire department, making us more productive.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The creation of invoices for customers is one of the main advantages of FreshBooks, every automation it has allows the company to save time, also we have not presented accounting errors that can cause headaches, therefore, we have a lot of confidence in the tool. The software captures the time used to perform the jobs allowing to have more tracking and providing important data to the human talent department.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sometimes we have had problems with some integrations to receive payments from customers making us have to resort to other options to receive this money which is a bit annoying as it is a very simple option and could be corrected. It does not handle a good inventory system which also leads us to have to turn to other tools, the truth is that we would like to have all this series of functions in a single software to centralize the information.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Aimed really at small businesses FreshBooks is a great accounting tool for many business models, each of its invoices and accounting processes are well protected and perfectly executed, although it may take a little time to get it running stably when workers get used to this is no longer a problem and begin to be more productive, we believe it is a software with great potential to exploit.
