Pros

“The user interface is an 8/10, but they definitely get five stars for their customer service.”

George L.

Operations Manager

“Too many sites offering same for free”

April W.

Administration

“In addition to receipt management, Shoeboxed also offers advanced features such as business card management, expense report management, and synchronization with accounting software such as QuickBooks.”

Thierno S.

Human Resources Officer

Pros

“It’s a solid, reliable platform that helps us stay organized, manage client communication in one place, and maintain a clean, professional workflow on the tax side.”

Mariela A.

Office Manager

“It solves several problems, from secure document storage, file sharing with clients, e-signatures, and task management, to invoicing, payment processing, engagements, and many more.”

Amy R.

Owner

“We now have our client portals, communications, billing, task management and more in one platform that is easily accessible online or from the mobile app.”

Brent S.

President

Cons

“The app version isn't as helpful as the web version and I have only the free version because the cheapest package I saw was almost $30!”

April W.

Administration

“All in all, Shoeboxed is a good solution for receipt management, but it may not be suitable for everyone due to its high cost, scanning limitations, reliance on scanning, and limited functionality.”

Thierno S.

Human Resources Officer

“Geographic limitations: Shoeboxed is based in the United States, which can cause issues for international users in terms of billing and currency support.”

Thierno S.

Human Resources Officer

Cons

“Not having the ability to integrate invoicing into QBD, use a another payment processor in the program, and editing and then signing a PDF.”

Garrett K.

Managing Member

“I do not like that so often the client portal tells our clients that they "do not exist" and they have to log out of the portal to fix this.”

Taylor J.

Administrative Specialist

“It is very tedious organizing almost four thousand files and determining who is active and not active”

Neal B.

Office Manager
