At the core of FreshBooks is it's simplicity. It is wrapped around a user-friendly and sleek user interface that enable us to quickly and efficiently prepare invoices with customizable templates, recurring invoices, and automated reminders, making it simple to track and collect payments from clients. Additionally it integrates with payment gateways such as PayPal which allow us to accept credit card payments directly within the FreshBooks. The time-tracking feature enables our employees to log hours worked, making it easy to calculate payroll expenses and generate accurate invoices for billable time.FreshBooks enable us to track key metrics and indicators of financial health and accurately report on our financial status of our company. > > **Cons**: FreshBooks provides us with excellent technical support, with a knowledgeable team that leave no chances for system outages or challenges because they help us solve all our issues on time > > FreshBook is accessible even to use who have no prior experience in accounting. It has also provided us with an affordable and flexible solution that has streamlined regular billing, improved cash flow and simplified payment procedures. ----- ### "Great for freelancers..." — 5.0/5 > **Ashley** | *14 January 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that Freshbooks is user friendly. It's simple to create invoices which I do all the time. It saves so much time > > **Cons**: There's nothing I don't like about Freshbooks. It's definitely more for small businesses though. If you are a larger business, I'd look elsewhere. > > I've been using Freshbooks for about 3 years and have had a great experience. It's perfect for my cleaning business and has all the tools I need. ----- ### "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 ----- ### "FreshBooks Fan" — 4.0/5 > **Mary** | *30 April 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a management tool, Freshboks was helpful and easy to use. User interface was easy to pick up and I experienced no bugs or issues. > > **Cons**: Customer service was difficult to connect with. Questions went unanswered, but this ultimately didn't affect usability. > > My overall experience with FreshBooks was positive. I would continue to use and absolutely recommend to friends. ----- ### "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 ----- Page: 1 / 182\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/142390/freshbooks?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/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
