I really like the ability to customize the program for your unique needs.

We have used this software since 2000 and LOVE the ease of use and customer support.

The Caterease software is easy to use and perfect for our needs at Indian Ridge Country Club.

Awesome customer service and great training available. Video tips are always accessible to learn a new feature or to review how to do something.

It is easy to use and reports are easy to obtain. I really love this software.

The support team is always great to help me with any question that I have. I am not very good with technology and they always answer my questions in terms that I understand.

The reports and query features are amazing. You can pull a report or query for literally any piece of information the you want.

It was a great investment for us, and now that we have this great system, I don't know how we would function without it.

I love that we are able to save line items such as our most popular menu items and their prices.

Its an incredibly effective product,makes creating and managing events and processes so easy.

Because I use the prints templates, I am limited to the customization of them. I know I could make my own prints so this is  a very small inconvenience.

Caterease has boosted our business operations and continues to help in our growth on a daily basis.

But the power really shows when you run a query. Caterease is a superb tool and also it is intuitive, fun to use and cool to look at.

Logging in and lack of mobile availability:  From a PC, you have to log into a citrix client before accessing your application.

This alone has cut our time it takes to prepare, schedule and collect payment for every event we create in half, if not more.

I am impressed, not only with the program but your customer service. The program is everything I could have hoped for and continually saves me time and money, also your customer service is impeccable.

I love the ability to pull simple reports quickly and permission settings.

I could go on for days about why I love Caterease.

Caterease kept all of my work schedule running smoothly, it was a bit of a pain for inventory tracking but it can be done.

I've added all kinds of things to my program since we started and not only does it keep getting better, it's still super easy to use. Do your business a favor and get Caterease.

Finally after a few months we took a loss on the money and abandoned the program all together.

Overall, Caterease is a blessing in the event planning industry. From detailed client reports, to custom event prints, it truly covers all the bases and helps things to run more smoothly.

The support of the Caterease help desk is also fantastic. When your business is so reliant on a program like this it is vital the back up support is quick and efficient.

The UI was great and integrations were nice. Overall, everything was really simple to use and set up.

I hate when I print proposals the page breaks horribly in the middle of sentences and photos.

I haven't been in business super long yet, but I knew I wanted to be organized from the getgo. HoneyBook has been AMAZING for that.

Honeybook is very easy to use and the UI is beautiful. They provide a lot of great built in resources, like example contract templates.

Software is very easy to use. Customer service is great and it's a great way to stay organized.

I love everything about HB and I love that they are always trying to improve and help in any way they can.

It's just been wonderful. Once I sat down and spent the time to set everything up the way it suited my business, I couldn't be more happy.

Honeybook is a great price, easy to use, has great customer service, and has lots of great ad one. The set up process is so easy for anyone.

The ONLY things I dislike about the software are very minor.

I have loved Honeybook since I first downloaded it...Customizing everything was easy and FUN. Any time i had questions customer service was super fast and nice...which makes everything easier.

Buggy, intermittent problems coupled with poor tech suport.

Definitely worth the investment in hours it’s saved me from hunting down emails and drafting contracts.

The interface is perfect, too. Friendly, but not too 'bubbly', so you still feel like a professional.

Tasks which are now automated I no longer have to keep worrying about completing, my business now is quite streamline.

I LOVE the referral program as well, the commission is beautiful. It's not only user friendly but the customer service has always been top notch as well.

So easy, helpful and affordable and I love that all my business management is in one place.

Luckily I had bookmarked HoneyBook and was able to get setup super quickly and start sending out professional looking proposals and contracts in only a few hours.

But my clients love it to, and I’m able to make every client, regardless of their billable worth, feel as important as they are.

We have been impressed with their constant improvement and development and their customer service team is A.

The delightful user interface for myself and clients, the organization for projects, the seamless integration of Honeybook into your life, helpful and friendly customer service.

When I was using it, I had a bit of trouble opening of attachments such as pdfs.

Ease of use, basic setup and easy to navigate with robust options for integrations and connecting all of my online tools.

I offer luxury services to high end clients and now I feel confident that every interaction supports and compliments my luxury brand.

No way to take notes on questionnaires. No way to add multiple templates to 1 email.

Ease of use, functionality is amazing, it’s intuitive, has awesome integrations.

Every piece of Honeybook helps me interact effectively with my clients, stay organized, and create a seamless, quality experience for each client.

Great tutorials available to help get set up. If you are considering it, by all means take the chance  you will absolutely LOVE IT.

I like that I can have all of my invoices in one place, it helps me take care of my taxes and allows me to track my income. My favorite thing is the brochure I've created.

I like the ease of seeing the pipeline and where I'm at with my bookings. I like the daily reminders to follow up on my clients.

Over great experience with great costumer service. It really make booking, invoicing and sending contracts to clients much simpler.

I love how user friendly it is. You have all of these amazing features to better yourself and your business.
