I was convinced I was going to have to pay for QuickBooks, and it was clunky to use, more than I was wanting to pay, and overkill for my needs. When I signed up for a trial of FreshBooks, I fell in love. It’s super user-friendly and has fantastic customer support.

I had been struggling with QuickBooks, constantly saying ‘There has to be a better way!’ Then, a friend recommended FreshBooks. I took it for a test drive and was amazed. FreshBooks is the better way.

I was fed up with QuickBooks and their lack of customer service. Within 10 minutes of trying FreshBooks, I knew this was what we needed. Dump QuickBooks as fast as you can and get FreshBooks!
