## Reviews

### "Bonsai gets me paid" — 5.0/5

> **Christian** | *27 June 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Invoice options, and automations work well out of the box and make sense with no need for configuration.
> 
> **Cons**: The cost would be too high if I didn't get a lifetime discount through webflow.
> 
> 4.9/5 stars, I can't complain. Bonsai does a great job of getting me paid.

### "An ever improving platform that makes freelancing a breeze" — 4.0/5

> **Victor** | *7 April 2023* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of creating projects, setting up and sending proposals, and tracking billing.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes projects move quickly, and certain actions have to become manual. Expense tracking can be tricky as well — I've had issues (likely bugs) where my expenses double or even triple which throws off P\&L reports. The mobile application is VERY limited, often defaulting to the desktop version for common actions.
> 
> Overall, I love this platform. It's straightforward and pleasant to look at. Once the mobile application can action creating proposals and contracts, making projects, adding clients and not just acting as a "review what's up in your business" companion application...

### "Horrendous Customer Service" — 1.0/5

> **Kezia** | *13 March 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the tax add-on that allows me to pull P\&L reports. It's the only reason I haven't canceled my subscription. Bonsai's customer service is disgusting\!
> 
> **Cons**: Everything except the tax add-on. Bonsai canceled my account without warning because Stripe couldn't verify my identity, EVEN THOUGH in their FAQs, it says there are other ways to do so if we reach out via email.I resubscribed (since I canceled my Quickbooks and Honeybook subscriptions) and got verified, but they locked my account pending said verification. Contacted customer service via chat, and they read my message and then closed the conversation ticket.Followed up with an email and two months later, nothing has changed.
> 
> Horrible, Worst in class

### "Well worth the money" — 5.0/5

> **Blaine** | *23 May 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The interface is very clean and intuitive and is a breeze to use. The feature that puts it above all the rest of similar products is the accounting features. For a small, simple business, I don't need to invest in another accounting product like QuickBooks. It saves on costs and keeps everything in one plane of glass.
> 
> **Cons**: The only item that I find lacking in Bonsai is there is no Kanban board or other visual way to track tasks and projects.
> 
> I am only one month into my new business and I'm glad I've starting using Bonsai from the beginning. My clients signed my contracts immediately when I sent them using the electronic signature as opposed to waiting for them to sign my initial paper contract. I have yet to sent my first invoice, but it looks to be very simple. I've connected my bank so I can see all my expenses in a single app.

### "Great way to centralize your business" — 4.0/5

> **Sarah** | *25 May 2023* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Being able to have my contracts, invoicing and scheduling all in one place has really helped to streamline the backend parts of my business.
> 
> **Cons**: The initial payout for the invoicing was over two weeks. I understand that it is in place to ensure security, however that amount of time can feel like forever to a small business.
> 
> Overall good\! Happy to have my business admin simplified.
