If you can collect payments via an online gateway, the platform will track received payments on its own as well.
HIveage has allowed me more time doing what I love and less time worrying about who has/hasn't paid their invoices. Notifications on how long an invoice has been outstanding have been super helpful in terms of reminding outstanding accounts.
Pros
Hiveage has provided me a cost effective way to manage my small businesses invoicing without the hassle of learning something like quickbooks.
Cons
I wish there was an option to send out an invoice with an estimate header so clients didn't think the quotes I am sending are payable.

Everything is perfect, just need to lower some fees
I've tried many other providers including a custom-made invoicing solution before (and alongside Hiveage), but because of how easy it is to use and how Hiveage streamlines our billing (and expense tracking) workflow – switching completely to Hiveage was an easy choice to make.
Pros
Team access is also a great feature. The recent addition of a fully working phone app is also a plus.
Cons
Lack of useful and customisable dashboard reports/charts.

Have been using it for over 10 years, totally pleased with it. I am running two companies on it. Totally satisfied
Pros
Receipt generations and payment reminders.
Cons
I have requested this many times, Hiveage doesn’t have job card integration with estimates and invoice. If that comes in I believe this would complete it.

It's helping me and my students process payments more easily and keep track of my income and expenses.
Pros
Besides, you can also keep track of your expenses, adding one-time or recurring bills, which is nice.
Cons
I believe the UI could be improved a little, and maybe the initial set-up process should be simplified.

I had high hopes and want to continue using their service and vouch for their service but with the lack of customer service response on issues that affect our usage I can't recommend anyone using this if they rely on this service for their day-to-day operation. Should be as glitch-free as possible and even if there are glitches any customer service help we need should be responded back within a few days max whenever possible. I'm currently waiting at 7 weeks and counting with no reply back and that's unacceptable!
Pros
One thing I like about the software is that it has multi-currency invoicing which we need and an app where we can issue quotations and invoices on-the-go.
Cons
The lack of customer service response and also sometimes the platform is glitchy (e.g. you have a product preset and it doesn't pull up when you try add to an invoice, and if you add a new customer during the invoicing stage it doesn't add that new customer details to that invoice after you've entered all the necessary customer details and save those details).

Regarding the custom domain feature mentioned in this review: Hiveage continues to support custom domains, and the experimental feature that was discontinued was SSL support on custom domains (which was not promoted publicly). We were one of the few, if not the only, invoicing software to try this feature, but at the moment we do not have an ETA for re-introducing it.
As a policy we refrain from publicly commenting on matters specific to individual customers.
Pros
Hiveage is a great software for freelancers and consultants and has almost every feature you'll ever want.
Cons
Mobile app lacks some reporting features and it can be hard to see some information that's readily available on web.

Make your itemized invoice - set it to recur every X months.
Pros
Simple to use and saves me so much time. Very inexpensive.
Cons
Some functions take a few clicks to get to which could maybe be simplified & an alternate default view for showing which invoices are outstanding would be helpful.

Pros
I can track expenses and link them to invoices which makes record-keeping a breeze.
Cons
I would like to be able to see the list of outstanding invoices on the app version dashboard - it states the total outstanding and how many invoices but you can't click to see those particular invoices the way you can on the desktop version.

It's very straightforward, you can customise your invoices and then send them to your clients.
Pros

Before Hiveage, invoicing took ages.
Pros
I like that I can track my time and then it is easy to turn it into an invoice. Turning on the clock when starting and off when finishing is great.
Cons
The only think that I've run into is had a problem a couple times and was hard to find where to contact for customer service.
