WOW!

No problems whatsoever and I highly recommend this software

PROS

As an independent accounting firm, I handle the Trust accounts for two law firms. Prior to finding Trustbooks I was using a substantially more expensive package that had fewer features and wasn't nearly as user friendly. Navigating within the program is very easy and the support I got in the initial set-up was amazing. I emailed for help and got a phone call within 15 minutes on a Saturday!!! My attorney clients are very pleased with the reports generated and the 3-way reconciliation insures we stay in NC Bar compliance.

CONS

Everything is terrific. No problems whatsoever.

Reasons for switching to TrustBooks

Price, quality of the software and the terrific support.

I really like this product

TrustBooks has saved us HOURS of staff time every month. Our books are up to date at all times. It also nearly eliminates the chance of overdrawing your trust account.

PROS

We previously used Excel Spreadsheets to keep our trust account. We had to manually type out our checks, then add them to the Excel sheet at the end of the month. With TrustBooks we print our checks right from the system, which means our books are always up to date. As long as you print your checks from Trust Books, there is NO WAY you can overdraft your trust account. TrustBooks saves us a tremendous amount of time and money. It is really the best subscription we have.

CONS

There are some changes I would like to see to the program. 1. The ability to change the layout of your checks. (we wanted TrustBooks to print "VOID AFTER 90 DAYS" on our checks and we can't. Also, we prefer the check in the middle style, and you can only use the check on the top style. Plus if you get checks from a place like WalMart, the alignment is a little wanky and you can't manually change it. 2. I wish maneuvering in the system was a little easier. If I look at an account ledger and open an item in that ledger, when I close the item, it does not take me right back to the ledger. Finally, I wish I could do batch entries, so perhaps 10 checks without having to switch screens between checks. Over all though, these items are NOT deal breakers, only ways that they could improve their product.

Reasons for switching to TrustBooks

To save time and money, and so our books would be up to date all the time.

Trustbooks is a great choice for trust account management

My experience with Trustbooks has been positive. Technical support was very helpful in setting up my account and establishing the connection to Clio. Trustbooks is open to suggestions for improvement and works to ensure you are satisfied with the product.

PROS

Trustbooks integrates with Clio and has the ability to generate monthly and quarterly reports necessary for trust account compliance.

CONS

Trustbooks could expand the selection of check printing templates, and occasionally there is a lag when syncing with Clio.

Reason for choosing TrustBooks

Trustbooks is optimized for trust account management and easy to learn.

Trust Accounting Made Easy

My overall experience has been very positive.

PROS

As an attorney, I am required to perform three-way reconciliations for my client accounts every month. Trustbooks has greatly decreased the time I spend on doing this task. I also like that it integrates well with Clio.

CONS

Nothing. Trustbooks works well. I have no complaints.

Reasons for switching to TrustBooks

Quickbooks is not well suited for the legal industry or trust accounting generally.

A better option for a small firm

PROS

That I can write checks from where ever I am-either working remotely, or at the office. Deposits are easy to make, adjustments or corrections relatively easy to make. Reconciliation is compliant the NC Bar Association. Both the attorney and I can be in the software at the same time. It's pretty user friendly.

CONS

I cannot edit more than one check in on matter. I have to go back to that matter and change. When I write checks for a future date, the check numbers don't automatically go forward and can really mess things up if you aren't careful. It's just annoying.

Reasons for switching to TrustBooks

We now need to have a 3-way reconciliation in NC for personal injury. We can reconcile anywhere.

Trustbooks Takes The Worry Out of Trust Accounting

I feel confident with Trustbooks. Trust accounting is of the utmost important in the practice of law. The ability of this product to oversee each entry as you input it is invaluable in the accuracy of our Trust accounting.

The entire Trustbooks system is so user friendly, that it is a pleasure to use every day. This application makes it virtually impossible to make an error in your trust accounting. We couldn't be more pleased with Trustbooks!

CONS

An Efficient, Cost Effective Solution to Trust Accounting

Our office is very pleased. Trust accounting using this program is one less thing to worry about, allowing us to focus on our practice rather than the administrative tasks.

PROS

TrustBooks has really streamlined our accounting process. What used to take hours a month now takes minutes. Reconciliations are now something to look forward to as it comes out perfect every time.

CONS

The only lacking feature was how to handle bounced deposit checks. We obviously did not want to delete the entry, but it has to be accounted for when a check we deposit fails to clear. The workaround was to create a fictitious payee called "bounced check".

Must have for easy trust account compliance/ reconcilliations!

Tom and his team are always responsive if I have a question or make a mistake and need help.

PROS

Prior to finding Trustbooks, I was spending 4-6 hours per month to perform my required monthly trust account reconciliations. With trustbooks, I now spend 4-6 minutes per month!

CONS

I would love to see a regular accounting module added. The creators of Trustbooks understand what a lawyer needs from accounting and builds their tools to serve that need specifically.

Reason for choosing TrustBooks

Trustbooks is user -friendly, easy to use and helps me catch any mistakes I make. It is my favorite software after 6 years of running my own practice!

PROS

This software is extremely user-friendly, and has been able to meet and/or exceed every need of our firm.

CONS

There are a few minor tweaks that I would like to see, mainly just with the defaults that are in place. For example, we have multiple trust accounts, and when I go to view the various matters that we have within all of those accounts, it automatically defaults to an account that is not used as regularly as some of the other ones.

Great Trust Accounting Platform with Room to Grow

Trustbooks provides basic attorney trust account record keeping. There is room to grow, but the primary benefit is basic record keeping.

PROS

Trustbooks is basically the only real game in town when it comes to attorney trust account record keeping. It integrates with Clio and LawPay, which makes things easier. It performs all the basic functions necessary to maintain accurate attorney trust account records.

CONS

Trustbooks has room to grow. For starters, there is no abilities to upload bank account statements for e-storage upon reconciliation. There is no way to upload for e-storage scans of checks as required in some states. Reporting could be improved and expanded upon.

PROS

Allows you to see the balance of the trust accounting of your clients in real time. Verified through a conciliation. to then give a report that provides reliability.
