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.”

Sai T.

Construction Project Manager

“The starter edition is free which is awesome, you are able to process payroll, invoice clients and perform monthly accounting at no cost. ”

Tim O.

Partner

“Easy to input information and create my own financial Reports, and my accountant has no issues with importing my entries over for his own purposes to prepare my company’s yearly Return”

Joseph L.

Principal

Pros

“Solid tool if you want to self-host, and you do not care for polished interface.”

Martynas S.

Head of infrastructure engineering

“Low Maintenance: It requires minimal maintenance, which is a huge plus for my workflow.”

Martynas S.

Head of infrastructure engineering

“I like that I am able to create multiple businesses each woth their own invoice template logo conditions etc.”

barbera s.

CEO

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“My customer paid by ACH/bank payment through Wave, the funds were withdrawn from the customer, and then Wave refused to release the payment to my business account because they claimed they could not verify my business.”

emir k.

Principal

“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).”

Aaron C.

Founder and CEO

Cons

“There are some bugs now and then in templating and other areas that are annoying.”

Martynas S.

Head of infrastructure engineering

“They forced me to migrate to the new system, refused to answer the questions I had about the migration, made fun of me and were incredible rude via email and after migrating when my account was not recognized by the new system they refused to help me.”

barbera s.

CEO

“This decision not only cost me a lot of valuable time to fix lots of bugs of the "automated" Migration process itself, but also it finally cost me almost $700 of my income because of an unwanted (automated) email that went out to a customer unplanned and unwarned.”

Tobias R.

Owner / Founder
