QuickBooks and any other platforms can not compare. There platform keeps your accounts connected not like QuickBooks. ----- ### "Fresh start with Freshbooks" — 4.0/5 > **Ray** | *10 November 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Really simple to use interface. Easy to enter time, projects and expenses and great reporting tools to analyze the data > > **Cons**: There isnt much to dislike about this software, the three years i used it daily and loved it and recommended > > Its such a refreshijg software to use and very simple and user friendly ux. Easy to navigate through the application ----- ### "Basic ease of use but with a high price" — 3.0/5 > **Hilary** | *16 May 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: To accomplish the normal everyday estimates and invoicing it is fairly simple to use. It offered me the mileage tracking without paying additional for it, but it does have some inaccuracies > > **Cons**: For the price it doesn't have the add-ons and lots of missing features that I could get from another program, but it's a lot to transfer to another one so I have tolerated it. The tracking mode isn't 100% accurate and it does not send you automatically a copy of your invoice or estimate to your email and can be tricky to go back and find it and they only save it for a certain period of time > > When I first got the program it was very inexpensive and the main thing I liked was my accountant could access all of my stuff. It has since doubled in price and a lot of the features that they add do not benefit me like the payroll section. You can only have one person as such myself without paying extra on top of the $60 a month ----- ### "Simple and Efficient Accounting for Small Businesses" — 5.0/5 > **Sarthak** | *8 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: FreshBooks is very easy to use and has a clean, intuitive interface. I liked the invoicing and expense management features, which make it simple to track payments and spending. The automation for recurring invoices and payment reminders saves time, and the reports provide clear visibility into financial performance. Customer support is also responsive and helpful. > > **Cons**: Some advanced accounting features are limited, and report customization could be improved. Pricing can increase as more clients are added. Occasionally, there are minor bugs, but they do not significantly affect overall usability. > > My overall experience with FreshBooks has been positive. The platform is easy to use and simplifies invoicing, expense tracking, and transaction management. The clean user interface and automation features save time, while reports provide clear visibility into finances. Customer support is responsive, and although there are some limitations in advanced features, it works well for small businesses and freelancers. ----- ### "FreshBooks is the realest of them all." — 4.0/5 > **Bahaa** | *3 April 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I absolutely love the mobile app, we found it flexible and convenient to us. Invoicing is now better than ever. For online payments, Freshbooks is our number one solution, with it's excellent features it does exactly what it's supposed to do. Very demure, I highly recommend. > > **Cons**: I never experienced a major problem am glad it was of great help to me. > > It's awesome and it's pricing plans favors even small businesses. The experience was good and worth all the efforts. ----- Page: 1 / 182\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/142390/freshbooks?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/142390/freshbooks) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
