Pros

“It helps save time with daily bookkeeping tasks, invoicing, and tracking payments. While it may not have all the advanced features of bigger platforms, it works well for basic business accounting needs.”

Owner

Cons

“My customer paid by ACH/bank payment through Wave, the funds were withdrawn from the customer, and then Wave refused to release the payment to my business account because they claimed they could not verify my business.”

“I tried to recommend my friend to use Wave but they were unable to sign-up as my friend works in healthcare, and there were some data storage restriction due to HIPAA and Wave's data policies, which prevented the registration to continue.”

Salina T.

Owner

“The main thing I don't like about Wave is that they don't use standardized "GAAP terminology" for some of their financial management and reporting features. While this may make it more accessible to a certain user base, it actually makes it a bit confusing for me (who has a bit of formal CPA / accounting training).”

Cons

“It got too pricey for us.”

“Price a bit high and features very difficult to master”
