Research Manager

I am not able to write off a partly paid bill as bad debt if all attempts to reclaim the payment from my clients fail. Sometimes, people pay about 70% and fail to pay for the rest.

Teacher

It's a great software and works well for my basic use case as a solopreneur. The payments feature is also nice and the reporting is great.

Digital Artist 

I thought it was going to be great when I saw that it functioned with Etsy. And I loved that it is free.

Photographer

This is a user friendly software that I have been using for years. It makes my invoicing very easy and has been great in tracking my finances.

It can be glitchy at times. I had problems with my transactions imported from my connected bank account, and then when I tried to remove the account and re-connect it, I received error messages.

Digital Marketer

I am really happy having moved over from Zoho Books and before than from Xero. I love that you can toggle between personal and business sides easily.

I love that this tool is free and has so many great features. It makes my invoices look professional and makes billing a breeze.

Then, January of 2021, Paypal import was abandoned. Without those 2 features, the software is essentially useless since it creates extra work each month.

Coach

Simple and easy to use for a non-tech person, clear layout, easy navigation, reliable functioning, helpful customer support, syncs well with Stripe for receiving payments.

Marketing and Web Services Consultant

I take Wave for its good point and have since 2015, and excellent billing, invoicing and payment processing system. It has added value through its Wave Money expansion as well.

Data & Operations

It's easy to use their receipt app to take a photo or forward a receipt to have it auto-capture. And the ability to integrate through tools like Zapier makes automating invoices a breeze.

Wave review 

Wave is excellent especially when it comes to credit card processing which is done automatically with a very low 1% fee. It is very easy to set up and use and the cost is low or even free.

President

In my case, I must tediously click on each daily ATM transaction and designate this to transfer to an account. After 30 times in a row it is tedious and boring.

They also have integrated a payroll service that prepares the taxes for the federal and state. Best of all you can do that all in the browser and stored online.

Their customer service has been very helpful when I've had questions.

QuickBooks Desktop

Microsoft Excel

Best to use

I recommend Wave Apps for my small business clients that don't need a lot of integrations. I also have clients that use it for payroll and find it very easy. 

Finally! A software to recommend to very small businesses

Using Wave Accounting the most important features we have used are the automated transaction categorization, bank reconciliation, multi-currency support, real-time financial reporting, tax calculation, and integration with payment processors and third-party apps for enhanced functionality.

Review of Wave accounting

My experience with Wave has been great and very helpful for our small business.

Highly Recommend this for Small Business

Logiciel de comptabilité 

Accounting software

HORRIBLE. They processed my payroll for my employees and then declined it after taking out the money, and then proceeded to tell me the accounting people will take 5 business days to clear it back, AND ANOTHER 5 business days to appear in my bank. So they took thousands of dollars for a ride for 10 days. UNBELIEVABLE!

Dont do it. Terrible customer service. Processed my payroll and then declined but holding the money

Using the application has helped us to reduce on paper work such as printing of receipt and invoices books 

accounting now easy with wave 

The worst ever,  i would stay away from ever and I would stay away from the wave app... I'm to join Paycom? Anyone? Will keep posted if i can thanks for reading.  Just jump off from Wave ASAP. They are NOT WORTH IT.

PAYROLL that will leave you in Jungal bare naked

In a nutshell, Wave accounting is very effective software. 

Efficient accounting
