If was any simpler it'd be illegal
Super simple. We were actually able to get everything set-up in 4 hours, not missing a beat, employees were paid on time and reporting cash in - cash out doesn't require a degree from MIT.
Pros
I can't even begin to say how SIMPLE it is! I was looking for something that my Daughter and Wife could use to do AR/AP as well as payroll. It took me literally 4 hours to get 237 employees added with their payroll information. Didn't miss a payday :-)
Cons
The invoicing was/is clunky. You only have 3 designs to choose from. I haven't found a way to import designs from another invoicing software that I was using. I'd kind of like to just have one......but it's not too important right now.

Wave is better than Xero & QuickBooks
My overall experience has been spectacular. It was easy for me to add bank accounts and integrate other key extensions. I prefer this over Xero only because it's free and easy to use on both mobile and desktop. It's packed with many things that I still have to explore when I get the chance. I think everyone should give this software a shot before they decide on moving on to a paid platform.
Pros
I like that it's completely free and has many easy aspects of adding receipts, reporting, tracking your expenses, bank accounts and more. I compared it with other bookkeeping software and Wave is the best because it's free and does the same things as other platforms but more. I will mainly be using this in my business to keep track of taxes and file it accordingly.
Cons
There are no cons for me for this software as I recently started using it. I think the only thing they should do is continuously adding more features and updates.
Reasons for Choosing Wave Payroll
Simply because it was free and has everything I need in it to manage and keep track of my small business.

Nice on the eyes, poor on performance
You get what you pay for. Great for when things were super, super simple, but at 11 employees, I'm ready to ditch for something that can really help us when we really need it to just work. Wave doesn't.
Pros
User-facing pages are nice looking, invoices and other docs look professional.
Cons
Customer service is mainly by chatting with a bot. They have no help pages. The bot is generally useless and we have to eventually email for support. They have no phone support at all. Off-boarding a dismissed employee makes it look as if they have not thought through the process. Beneath this all the time is the constant annoyance with how long every operation takes. Their site is noticeable slow compared to many others, and for just about everything.

I have been using WaveApp For 2 years
Pros
I absolutely love Waveapp. It is easy to use to manage my client invoices, estimates, employee payroll, and track business expenses.
Cons
The only drawback is waiting several days for funds to be transferred to your bank account. When my clients make a payment, I get a notification that I have been paid, however, those funds take a few days before they actually show up in my bank. It would be great if Waveapp was a bank as well.

I love Wave
Pros
I love Wave! It is awesome. The payroll feature is easy to use and the transaction tagging is very easy.
Cons
I do not have very many complaints if any at all. The support staff responds very quickly to any issues or concerns that a user may have.
