## Reviews

### "Freshbook for small business" — 4.0/5

> **Jerry** | *9 April 2026* | Computer Hardware | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I use freshbooks to generate invoices and collect online payments for my small business.  It’s incredibly easy to use and didn’t take long to learn. I was able to get up and running quickly.  My clients have also responded positively to it and appreciate how clean and professional the invoices look. They’ve mentioned that the format is straightforward and easy to understand, which makes the whole payment process smoother.
> 
> **Cons**: I've had a few issues with utilizing the reporting metrics. Some reports lack detailed reporting metrics. The workflows for accounting reports can feel a bit restricted at times.
> 
> Overall I really enjoy FreshBooks. I will continue to use it for my small business. It fits my current needs. Though as I scale up, it may start to show its weaknesses towards larger focused businesses.

### "Using FreshBooks for construction" — 4.0/5

> **Bernadine** | *18 April 2025* | Construction Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Was great and simple to use. Was able to create invoices directly from the app.
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of ability to generate purchaee orders
> 
> Awesome. Great software for small businesses

### "They will block your account with no explanation." — 1.0/5

> **Sean** | *10 September 2025* | Construction Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It worked well until they shut my account down with no explanation. I highly recommend keeping your data elsewhere. They won't give access to it.
> 
> **Cons**: They shut my account down and didn't explain why and started ignoring my emails. I am in waterproofing and I've been creating quotes just fine during the free trial and a few days after I paid they shut my account down and wouldn't tell me why or give a refund. I put lots of time into getting all those quotes migrated onto the system and now I have to start again on a different app. I wouldn't recommend for small businesses that don't have their data in multiple places coz finding all the quotes I've sent is gonna take a while. I had used them for another business that had 2-3 transactions a month for over 2 years so I felt comfortable using them for this new business that had more transactions. I was wrong to have done so.
> 
> Customer support is horrible. They won't answer you, just give you pre written responses. Not sure why.

### "Great for Small Businesses, with a Few Minor Flaws" — 4.0/5

> **Matt** | *21 November 2024* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: FreshBooks has an intuitive and user-friendly interface, making it easy to create and send invoices in just a few clicks. The automated payment reminders are a lifesaver, and the ability to accept online payments directly through the platform is a huge time-saver. The mobile app is also well-designed, allowing me to manage invoices and expenses on the go.
> 
> **Cons**: The pricing structure could be more flexible, especially for small businesses or freelancers with only a few clients. Some advanced reporting features are only available in the higher-tier plans, which might not justify the cost for all users. Additionally, I’ve experienced minor delays in customer support response times.
> 
> FreshBooks has streamlined my invoicing process significantly, reducing the time I spend on administrative tasks and giving me more time to focus on my work. While it’s not perfect, the platform offers a robust set of features that cater well to small businesses and freelancers. The occasional limitations are outweighed by the convenience and time savings it provides.

### "Sales reports." — 4.0/5

> **Sotis** | *13 January 2025* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Adding Company/ business details is done once you open the account and fields are fully customizable
> 
> **Cons**: I liked It because it was better but because the company changed.
> 
> FreshBook helps manage daily sales,get monthly sales reports and create invoices for customers is digitalized.
