What freelancers say about other tools
Real quotes from freelancers dealing with QuickBooks, FreshBooks, and Wave
Way too complex for a freelancer. I use maybe 10% of the features.
For solopreneurs, it's expensive for what it does... a monthly fee plus high card fees is a lot to stomach.
I would stay as far away from them as possible... they will hold your money till the cows come home.
