It can be confusing to some extent - one of our contractors, in this instance, had 2 profiles and was entering hours and expenses under the company name first instead of under his name.

The system is easy to configure, easy to use and the support has been amazing. We're very happy with the system.

This is a great mobile timesheet app. It tracks every hour spent on a project and helps to track everything that each person is doing.

Overall the experience with BigTime has been great. It will help us better manage our business.

The fact that the staff genuinely cares and believes in the product is what I like best.

I like the ease of use the most as well as the availability of the support team.

In our month of using BigTime, our experience has been wonderful. Our Customer Success Manager is AMAZING.

Great customer service and support. Very easy to implement and roll out.

Overall I have had a pretty positive experience with Bigtime and am optimistic that it will work out great for our company.

So far so good, we are already seeing an improvement in budget tracking.

We just started using the software and are impressed with the support staff at Big Time. They are helping us to set up the program and customize it for our needs.

Also, we have been very impressed with the speed of the system and the design of the user interface.

This makes it difficult to integrate BT invoicing directly into QB data. A problem made even more difficult given that all of our projects to date have been invoiced from QB.

Big huge thank you to the support staff for helping me yesterday with my sync agent for QuickBooks. He was very professional and patient.

Great features that meet our companies needs. Integration with Quickbooks works perfectly.

The service has been great. So far we're very pleased with the process.

I enjoy the ease of the software and the accessibility for our employees.

I love the ease at which you can make adjustments to submitted timesheets or expense reports. The software is very intuitive.

But Sylvia, who guided us through the Onboarding process, was able to successfully show us all the capabilities that BigTime has to offer so far.

It is good to see that bigtime integrates so directly with the quickbooks platform, since this way it works better with invoices and workflow management tools.

Ability to easily add staff, create projects and budgets. Report generation and ability to export reports to excel for pivot table analysis.

I like how clean it is - our bugdets and hours are all tracked neatly now. Before it was all done manually, with the help of a spreadsheet.

I have tried many solutions in the past and I found BT was the best fit for our organization.

Overall the fact that everything's integrated into one platform makes Bigtime a great timesaver for any organization.

We are in the process of implementing the software, but the training and support we have had so far has been fantastic. The software seems to be intuitive and is very user-friendly.

I like the ease of the integration between BigTime and Quickbooks.

Its inability to perform some task that I am used to which is to be expected in a switch form one system to the next.

My overall experience with BigTime has been great, the software is easy to use and navigate, and the customer support has been fast and helpful in answering any questions I have had.

There are a couple of features that are missing pertaining specifically to my company.

Its a software that is easy to navigate and the cost sweeps me off my feet.I recommend it for anyone.

We did it backwards which cost us about three weeks of loss time.

Accounting by Wave is super easy to navigate and use. It helps with bookkeeping and makes my job a little easier.

The customer service is useless. They say the transaction issue is due to their third party and that they have no control over this.

It is so super easy to use, integrates with my Stripe account so clients can easily pay by credit card and even better - it's free.

Though I love Spark, I'm hopefully that Wave's banking that is coming soon will be a good future solution. I love Wave for everything else.

Love using wave to track my spending and budgeting through their software. When I make payments with my credit card, I'm able to go in and categorize everything super easily.

This free tool does more than many paid one does and the payment system is just another nice addition also great UX.

Another cool thing is that you can convert that estimate to an invoice which saves you a lot of time. The email integration is also great as it sends documents direct to the customers inbox.

I also like that their customer service is responsive and you can chat when you have questions.

It sometimes would get messed up. Transactions were doubled and it wasn’t always in sync with my accounts which made my accountant nervous.

I like that is user friendly and a free services to help those in small business. I wanted to like it more than quickbooks.

Anytime I have had to use customer service they have been readily available and diligent with their commitment to helping me reach a resolution. It has made invoicing easier for myself and my clients.

It was wonderfully easy to use, the invoices looked professional and payment processing features were handy.

Love to use Wave to create and share invoices with clients. It integrates with my bank account well and the invoice layouts are easy to read.

If I continue to scale my business, I can pay to utilize some of the more focused products to support continued growth. I really enjoy the product and would recommend.

Creating and customizing invoices are a breeze. The ability to instantly send them out electronically is fantastic.

They trapped 10k+ by inserting a payment link into invoices and when the customer pays they give you every excuse in the book to hold the money.

I've been satisfied with this, easy to use and good value for a free service.

Great software, would highly recommend and great for that emerging entrepreneur.

The customer support is also terrific, and will help you get everything up perfectly and seamlessly.

They recently got bought out so I would not be surprised if some of the features began disappearing or being charged.

I love that Wave allows you to get started with some pretty awesome features for free. So awesome that they do that.

Really helped bring my organizations finances to a good place. Helps us keep organized and efficient with our money.

Innovation attempts create confusion and many basic reporting features are either excluded or lost value because of the report structure and lack of customization.

Wave Accounting is very cost efficient & cost effective for small businesses here in Fiji. The overall experience has been a pleasant one and I would recommend it to small business owners only.

This is an online app that is very dependable and accurate. Awesome customer support.

We are just a simple business so we probably don't use some of the more advanced features, but it does what I want and best of all, it's F-R-E-E.

My experience has been great and satisfying. I have used a number of accounting systems that are rather complex or require a large learning curve, better suited for someone with accounting experience.

I love that this is an awesome product with great great affordability. It’s really better than its pricing.

The last advisor never did the things he was supposed to do and he finally just stopped working for me. I complained to his supervisor, but to little effect. Now I'm looking for an outside bookkeeper.

It's a free solution to help us track expenses for our taxes, and I hope it will be a good long-term solution.

Genuinely happy with Wave for the most part. It's a perfect accounting companion for someone just starting up a company or working freelance.

Overall I have found great success in using the software. It's easy to use and was quick to learn.

What I really like in Accounting by Wave is integrated with other apps, And its very easy to use. Which make me save my time doing other tasks.

It also has excellent invoice templates which are easy to set up. On top of all this it is free.

SO LISTEN CAREFULLY, WAVE IS A SCAM TO GET YOUR MONEY!!! I am currently filing suit and reporting to consumer fraud, and any other outlet I can to stop them from scamming others.
