Logiciel comptabilité pour entreprises et comptables
Publié le 17/01/2023
"J'ai utilisé FreshBooks pour mon travail indépendant et j'ai été impressionné par sa flexibilité. La sécurité de la transmission des données était excellente et l'interface était facile à utiliser. J'ai également apprécié la possibilité de configurer des alertes pour manipuler rapidement les rapports financiers.
Avantages
FreshBooks est un outil de comptabilité en ligne idéal pour les petites entreprises car il ne nécessite pas d'installation supplémentaire sur votre ordinateur. Il permet de suivre les dépenses de vos projets de manière efficace grâce à sa fonctionnalité de suivi de projet. La facturation est très simple à utiliser avec la fonction de projet. L'interface est bien conçue et facile à naviguer, vous permettant de vous déplacer rapidement. Les catégories de dépenses peuvent être personnalisées en fonction de vos besoins de suivi de l'activité. Il est également très facile à exporter pour les besoins de la déclaration de revenus avec les comptables. Avis hébergé et hébergé sur G2.com.
Inconvénients
En utilisant exclusivement FreshBooks, je préférerais voir une amélioration de l'interface pour permettre la génération automatique de formulaires fiscaux pour mes entrepreneurs à la fin de chaque année.

Outil essentiel de comptabilité
Publié le 11/12/2022
Je n'imaginais pas que je ferais quelque chose d'aussi génial avec une application ! Puis j'ai pensé à vérifier s'il y avait une application, et il y en avait ! Si facile à utiliser et facile à insérer votre propre logo pour des factures d'apparence professionnelle. Je viens d'ouvrir une garderie et j'avais du mal à suivre les paiements et à faire payer quelques parents. Cela résout tous mes problèmes. J'adore ça !
Avantages
Fonctionne très bien pour la facturation et le suivi des dépenses ! Le support technique est excellent. C'est tellement mieux que de faire les choses à l'ancienne. Le support technique est correct.
Inconvénients
Le suivi du millage est sans valeur ! Je l'ai essayé pendant un plusieurs mois. Ça ne marche pas. Il manque des manèges. Le millage n'est pas exact. Les points de départ et d'arrêt ne sont pas exacts. Le problème avec l'application est qu’elle n'utilise pas le GPS et ne fonctionnent donc pas correctement à l'aide de la technologie de localisation des téléphones cellulaires.

Le Plus de la Comptabilité des Petites Entreprises
Publié le 05/12/2022
Bien qu'il soit un logiciel de qualité, FRESHBOOKS aurait besoin d'un complément de fonctionnalités pour gagner en efficacité et en autonomie. Il mérite la note de 8/10.
Avantages
Le logiciel FRESHBOOKS est opérationnel sur pratiquement tous les navigateurs du web. Au tarif de 4,50$/mois les 3 premiers mois, puis 15$/mois, le version Lite suffit pour commencer. J'ai aimé sa comptabilité ( gestion clients, factures, dépenses...). Le support client est de qualité et à l'écoute, vous en aurez besoin.
Inconvénients
Deux choses à savoir... FRESHBOOKS n'est PAS UN LOGICIEL DE PAIE. Il ne gère PAS non plus de STOCKS DE PRODUITS (pas d'inventaire). Enfin, le nombre de clients que vous aurez à gérer est LIMITE.

Mon avis sur Fresh Book
Publié le 30/08/2022
Parlant de mon expérience avec FreshBook, j'ai beaucoup aimé et je dirai même que c'est l'un des meilleurs logiciels qui peut nous aider avec leurs programmes assez exceptionnels. Comptabilité, Gestion de fonds et autres. Moi je l'utilise surtout pour les livres sur la gestion des fonds. Merci à eux et je continuerai à l'utiliser. Et aussi c'est plus simple pour moi en l'utilisant sur téléphone.
Avantages
En vérité j'aime bien ce logiciel. Il n'y a en faite rien que je n'aime pas, et je l'utilise de temps en temps pour des livres qui m'aident à m'en sortir lorsque j'ai des difficultés.
Inconvénients
En générale rien de grand ne me dérange que les emails à chaque fois.

FreshBooks OK for beginners only
Publié le 20/02/2023
The client prefers to keep their time tracking, billing, and invoicing in FreshBooks due to it's ease of use for time tracking with external contractors.
Avantages
FreshBooks is beginner friendly and integrates with Gusto payroll. For a solo owner with very little finance experience this may be a good enough option. For businesses with complex reporting needs, I would run not walk away from this software.
Inconvénients
I've experienced many problems with automatic entries being incorrect. Very simple things that I can easily adjust in QB or QBO but create a nightmare in FreshBooks and support was never able to fix them. Also, I think the cartoony financial statements are embarrassing.

Avantages
FreshBooks is an incredibly user-friendly accounting software. I found it very helpful for tracking my financial data and generating reports. The intuitive user interface makes it easy to navigate and understand, and the customer service has been incredibly helpful and responsive to my inquiries.
Inconvénients
FreshBooks does have some limitations, such as not being able to connect to my bank accounts and having limited customization options. Additionally, the subscription fees can be quite expensive depending on the package you choose.

I found that FreshBooks was a valuable tool for managing my business's finances, invoicing, and time tracking. The software's many features and benefits helped me to streamline my business processes, improve my
Avantages
In my experience with FreshBooks, I found that there were many things to like about the software. One of the things I appreciated the most was the software's invoicing capabilities. FreshBooks made it easy for me to create and send professional invoices to my clients, with customizable templates and the ability to accept online payments. This feature saved me a lot of time and effort in managing my business's finances.I also liked the software's time tracking features. FreshBooks made it easy for me to track the time spent on each project or task, and then bill clients accordingly. The software's automatic time tracking feature also helped me to accurately capture billable hours and reduce errors in my billing process.Another thing I appreciated about FreshBooks was the software's user-friendly interface. The software was easy to navigate and the layout was well-organized, making it easy to manage my business's finances and projects. Additionally, FreshBooks provided helpful resources and tutorials to help me get started and make the most of the software's features.Lastly, I found that the customer support provided by FreshBooks was excellent. The support team was responsive, knowledgeable, and able to quickly resolve any issues I had with the software.
Inconvénients
while I found FreshBooks to be a valuable tool for managing my business's finances, invoicing, and time tracking, I felt that there were areas where the software could be improved. The pricing structure, customization options, and reporting capabilities were all areas where I would have liked to see more flexibility and functionality.

Freshbooks is your partner in general accounting
Publié le 14/02/2023
We use FreshBooks for all expense tracking, client invoicing and project time tracking. I use it personally and each of my contractors/service providers also have accounts. My contractor also invoices me directly through FreshBooks. We can also coordinate with our accountants to export the information you need. If accounting is not your thing, but you need a good basic accounting software for your small to medium sized business. We often recommend FreshBooks to other businesses just starting out. The user interface is very easy to learn and use. It can be used simply as an invoicing tool or in a more advanced way for detailed accounting.
Avantages
My clients can make online payments directly from the invoice. FreshBooks asks my clients to leave a review of my service when they pay. Invoices with my company branding are sent directly from FreshBooks to my clients. The scheduling feature is great for clients who pay me by the hour. Within minutes, I can make a time sheet per project and task at the end of each month in the required Excel format. I can also track my work against my time estimates, which is helpful if I work on a flat fee basis.
Inconvénients
The Freshbooks account home page has a nice graphical display of expenses and income, but only shows the last 6 months. This is still very useful, but I would like to be able to see graphs like this for different time periods. Freshbooks does not remember categories that have previously assigned similar rates. It would be nice if Freshbooks would suggest a category for saved vendors to ensure consistency in expense reports. I can print my company logo on the invoice, but I would like to change the color of the invoice to match my other business documents. It's not a big deal at all, but it's something I'd like to see.

Freshbooks, an incredibly easy-to-use cloud accounting solution designed to keep businesses...
Publié le 26/02/2023
FreshBooks performs efficiently in the target it has determined, with payment options that are adapted to small and medium-sized companies, plus it has developed and implemented multiple automated accounting functions, which makes it easier to work, unlike some of other manufacturers. It is especially valued for entrepreneurs who cannot afford to dedicate time to manual accounting activities or who cannot afford a full-time accounting team, and require, above all, occasional supervision to ensure control of their finances, but they use the platform themselves, which is really intuitive and versatile.
Avantages
Freshbooks is excellent when we talk about starting a business and we don't have an accounting structure that allows us to keep our financial area healthy and have mechanisms to organize our accounting. With Freskbooks business owners are sure where the money is going and have visibility into expenses and income. Freshbooks recognizes the importance of careful accounting in business continuity and growth, avoiding the high risk of human error that can actually cost the business more.
Inconvénients
Freshbooks allows us to keep the accounting in order, and in the case of small companies, we can pay an accountant to update it or check if our work is done correctly, this allows the expenses associated with the financial and accounting area not to skyrocket in companies that are just in the process of growth. However, it is important that the accountant knows how to handle Freshbooks correctly to take advantage of all the features or that he is at least interested in reviewing the tutorial and documentation that is available on the website, on the other hand it is important to consider the paid version so that we can really use all the modules that we are going to need in a real management.

Essential to Running a Small Business
Publié le 22/02/2023
FreshBooks has saved me countless hours running my small business. No need to create an invoice template, keep a folder full of invoice documents, print and mail invoices, etc etc etc. Just a few clicks and estimates, invoices, and payments are done. I can't imagine doing things manually!
Avantages
The ability to quickly and easily generate estimates, get them signed off on, convert them to invoices, send them out for payment, and receive payment electronically is essential to running my photography business. FreshBooks makes these completely seamless, fast, and efficient.
Inconvénients
The financial management tools, such as general ledger, etc., are there, but somewhat buried. I'd like those to be a little more intuitive and easier to use to make my tax accounting simpler.

FreshBooks is an excellent choice for me to manage my finances because it is simple to use and offers a lot of features. Its user interface is intuitive and makes invoicing, tracking payments, and managing expenses effortless. Furthermore, it has a great mobile app which I can use while I'm away from my computer.

Barely passed high school math - and I'm now the bookkeeper
Publié le 08/10/2020
I love Freshbooks. We used Quickbooks up until I made the decision in January to say I was done stuggling with their program. We had tried the desk top and online versions and they both are so overwhelming with useless features that just get in the way of the simple bookkeeping and accounting needs that our particular business have.
I have been asked by other women in business, if I can help them with accounting as they start their business, and my first suggestion is that they immediately drop QB and move over to Freshbooks.
From our reports to filing quarterlies, reconciling and estimating - every thing about Freshbooks is better.
I have told my husband I would literally become a volunteer spokesperson for Freshbooks due to how much more enjoyable they have made running the backside of our business.
My ONLY regret is not doing this years ago. That's it. This product is life changing!
Avantages
Pretty much everything.
The dashboard, estimating, reports, client organization, etc etc. This product is outstanding.
Inconvénients
The type A personality in me would love to be able to close out the books monthly, but I'll take the trade off if it means my books stay balanced - which they always do in Freshbooks.
I also wish the mobile app was more of an interactive user app, vs being more of a quick snapshot of our business.

Fine if you are the only one in your business
Publié le 10/09/2022
It was rated well, so I expected better performance. Reconciling the small transactions I get from health insurance companies is very time consuming and it seems like there should be a better way to add those payments without having to manually enter each one when I have to reconcile.
Invoices default to "accrual" accounting which is a pain if you use cash-based accounting (which I do).
Overall, I have not been able to have accurate business numbers (profit/loss) for months because trying to figure out how to add payroll info has been so challenging.
Avantages
I loved that I could upload clients I frequently invoice when I transitioned. Setting up my bank links was very simple and transactions were downloaded easily. You can set up rules for accounts and they will follow those. Invoices look good and are easy to create.
Inconvénients
The software does not support accounting if you have employees and are paying any benefits. Trying to separate out the cost of what my employees contribute to health insurance, retirement, etc. vs what I contribute has been a nightmare. My bookkeeper and I both spent a lot of time with Freshbooks support trying to figure out how to do that. Turns out it is with a journal entry which is time consuming and makes no sense.

Easy no nonsense accounting platform
Publié le 08/10/2020
I had been using a widely regarded accounting competitor whose system was way more than I needed. FreshBooks allowed me to consolidate several platforms into one - saving me money and time.
Avantages
FreshBooks allows me to create estimates & send proposals, track my time, invoice clients and reconcile my expenses for financial reporting all in one easy to use place. I was using 3 different platforms before to do all of this.
Inconvénients
It would be nice to have slightly more robust accounting functionality but for the most part it does everything I need it to do. I’d like to be able to track time by quantity rather than just duration.

Hate the new format
Publié le 01/12/2020
Before the drastic change to the new format, it was excellent. Made my job so much easier, and me so much more effective. It was really a great product. Now, since the new format has been forced on me, it has been nothing but frustrating to use. They didn't just change it a little, they completely revamped everything and made it far inferior to what it once was. For me anyways, it is no longer "user friendly". It is no longer an effective tool. The only reason we haven't switched to someone else is because of the 10 years of history we have saved in the program. We would lose all of that if we switched, so unfortunately we are stuck with having to use this horrible new format.
Avantages
The fact that it keeps the history of past business transactions.
Inconvénients
I was a huge fan of the Classic Freshbooks, and used to recommend it to anyone who would listen. Unfortunately, they recently "forced" a new format on all existing customers. The new format is far inferior to the Classic Freshbooks that was in place before. Now, unless I create a separate account for each individual person I deal with, (instead of just a company account with my contacts noted within), all of my estimates and invoices are addressed to the wrong person, (the new format has only one contact person per company that shows up on an estimate/invoice). Their recommendation to this was to set up a separate account for each individual person I deal with, which literally means I need to set up thousands of more accounts, many of which are for the same company, just for a different person within that company. Completely illogical. The Classic Freshbooks had an awesome search engine allowing me to search for various fields at once, (company name, site address, job particulars, etc.). Now, instead of many search different fields, there is only one, and that one is largely ineffective giving me results in a completely random order, not chronological at all as it was with the Classic format. Cannot express enough how disappointed I am with the new format.

Not for everyone, or even most...

I've been using Freshbooks for the last couple of years, and at first it was a breath of fresh air after getting away from Quickbooks (both online and desktop version prior to that). If you don't have a proficiency for accounting, systems like Freshbooks are great, so I enjoyed the simplicity of it. The problem is - it's just way too simple and there are some major gaps in functionality. Additionally, it's a stagnant system. Very little improvements or features were tweaked or added in the system during the entire time I used it which is pretty unusual for a web based service.
Freshbooks shouldn't even call themselves accounting, because their forte really is in time tracking and invoicing. I now use Freeagent and wish I'd switched sooner.
If you don't care about tracking profit margins on projects or really tracking expenses accurately at all, then Freshbooks might work for you.
Avantages
Freshbooks gets plenty right. Tracking billable time against customers or customer projects is a breeze, and their invoicing and methods for collecting payments is really hard to beat. Plus, they integrate with so many other services, it makes it really easy to get addicted to.
The things I love most - and the main reasons I'm glad that I left Quickbooks for Freshbooks is:
Automated invoice reminders, which are totally flexible. This alone saved me a lot of time chasing down late payers.
Your customers get a really nice interface for viewing all their invoices online - although I will say I think I only have one or two clients who ever even used the client portal for doing that. Most of them just go to their email to retrieve the links for invoices or statements, but it is still a really nice feature.
Inconvénients
No connections to your banking / credit card accounts. You can do this with expenses to some extent, but it's just awful to work with, when compared to Quickbooks, Xero, FreeAgent - pretty much anyone else. In order to use Freshbooks, you have to have some other software or service for managing the accounting aspects of your business. This ended up being a bad thing for me. I like having it all connected, and there are plenty of great alternatives for that, and some even charge less than Freshbooks.
My reasons for leaving Freshbooks? Freshbooks is downright awful at expenses...
You can't record non-billable expenses against a customer or project. If you want to record the expense without billing the customer for it, you cannot assign it to the customer or project. No easy way around that without messing up your accounting records.
And with expenses that you DO want to rebill the customer for, there's no easy, intuitive way to handle marking up those expenses for goods or services to make a profit on. In order to do that, you must first add the expenses to the customer invoice, and then modify each line item expense amount up to the amount you want the customer to pay.
You cannot record bills as you receive them your vendors. Say for example, you get an invoice from a programmer who did work for you on 4 different projects in a given time period. Most vendors will just send you an itemized invoice with all the billable time across the various projects. Well, you can't record it that way in Freshbooks. Each line item on your bill must be entered into freshbooks one line item at a time, and you cannot correlate them easily to know that they are all part of one bill/invoice. Freshbooks also can't help you with managing when your bills are due. That's accounting, which Freshbooks doesn't do.
Freshbooks solutions to their shortcomings with expenses is all handled with hacks and workarounds for how their system is currently built. They are not easy or intuitive and they also throw things off with your accounting reports.
