I’m friends with Sunir and Saul from Freshbooks (the company supported PodCamp Toronto, and I met the guys at South by Southwest), so I wanted to check out their app again. I logged into an account a while back, but when I refreshed my experiences with the tool the other day, I found a new appreciation for it. If you’re a small business or a professional consultant or the like, you might give this tool some consideration.
What It Does
Freshbooks is a way to manage invoices, expenses, and time tracking for small businesses. It’s a web-based application, with a really simple interface. Build things that might recur (like clients, or invoice types, etc), and then things gets fairly automated.
Pricing
It’s not super cheap, but it’s not inexpensive, either, and their pricing has tiers:
I think it’s reasonable for what it’s doing for you.
Overall
I think Freshbooks is a simple tool that does what it sets out to do well. I like the features that I was able to test, and found it easy to grasp.
I’d love to talk with others who are using the app. Are you? I’m curious how well it works when you’re invoicing a bunch of folks, what you’re doing with the expenses tab, and how well it integrates into your other business processes.
You should check it out here. (Note: I don’t get any money from Freshbooks for this link, but definitely want them to know I sent you!) I’m curious what your take is on the product, and whether it works for social media types as their potential billing system of choice.
What ELSE are people using for invoicing, time tracking, and expense management?
