It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

Great and cheap
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Wave from other similar products?
Its free and super easy to use - really simple UI and reporting features are great
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Its free (no subscription required) - for invoicing you need to pay the standard 3% or whatever of credit card fees
What do you dislike most about this product?
Bc quickbooks is the 800 pound gorilla my accountant requires using it - will take time (if ever) for Wave to get to that level
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
The fact that everyone uses Quickbooks makes it hard to avoid using, but in terms of features/pricing i far prefer Wave
