Has anyone used this for time tracking and invoicing?

I have been playing with it as I am just starting out but to be honest I think you have to have quickbooks. I just can't afford that for a couple of months so Freshbooks is working for right now....

I use freshbooks for time and invoicing and I love it. I have been using it for 6 months and I think it is great. My clients like it too, as they can log in and check time and they can pay their bill from there. I think it is great!

This version limits you to 20 vendors. Having said that, you'll quickly outgrow the free package and no doubt, have to reenter data into your next application.

If you're eventually going to embrace Quick Books, then it becomes a question of how long will the interim be?

If I were you, I would contact Quick Books to see if there is an automatic transfer of data once you've installed the full program and if they offer some incentive to upgrade.

See, I have such a small business that I didnt even realize there was a vendor limit. In fact, I dont think I even have a vendor listed yet...

I've also been using Freshbooks for about 6 months and love it. Very easy to track time and then generate invoices from the time worked, or create invoices from scratch. I definitely recommend this program!

I don't have a whole lot of bookkeeping right now but I've been using if for the past couple of months and I love it too. I hope I grow big enough to where I either have to upgrade to a paid account or switch to Quickbooks but for right now it's perfect for me.

I love Freshbooks, and have just (this past week) upgraded to the paid version because of client load (does the )

I love Freshbooks because:

I could not find an integrated time tracker with a start/stop that I liked as much as Freshbooks, which was a huge draw for me.

Clients can log in whenever and see tracked time on projects that you have set visible.

Also, FreshBooks integrates with BaseCamp, which I use for project and client management, so it works very well for my needs.

Thanks for your feedback about Freshbooks. From what I've seen so far, it appears to be a great program, however, I wanted to hear firsthand from someone thats used it so far.
