Limited and inflexible reporting

Office Manager

I can't even pull accurate reports, I informed the company of the issue over a year ago and they still haven't corrected it, so I can't pull accurate income or billable reports.

78% of reviewers feel negative about Reporting, indicating MyCase’s reporting features lack customization and depth. Reviewers report difficulty generating accurate, detailed, or shareable reports, and say filtering options are insufficient. They find the process cumbersome, with restrictions on selecting categories and customizing columns. Users mention challenges in tracking billables, bonuses, and financial summaries, noting that manual work is often required to achieve desired results. Many reviewers express frustration with the inability to drill down or create robust reports for their practice needs.

Manual and inefficient note handling

Owner Principal

Instead the user has to fill in each one manually over and over.

47% of reviewers feel negative about Notes and Entries, stating MyCase requires multiple steps and manual entry for notes and information. Reviewers report inconvenience in customizing fields, adding preset language, and marking texts or messages. They say integration with other platforms is limited, and managing client information often involves navigating several screens.

Cumbersome email workflow

Paralegal

That you took away the email function that let us draft emails from within MyCase, and attach case documents.

56% of reviewers feel negative about Email Integration, stating MyCase’s email features are not seamless and require manual effort.

Restrictive and costly payment options

Founding Member Attorney

Specifically, locating detailed information about payments, refunds, and transaction history is not always intuitive.

Partner

I am putting all the billing info in MyCase, including past and closed cases. But sometimes the client paid a late fee or something and it is super hard to add this info, because the payments must match the flat fee rate.

49% of reviewers feel negative about Payment Processing, indicating frustration with high credit card fees, limited integration, and inflexible billing. Reviewers report difficulties in applying payments, reconciling accounts, and managing refunds. They say the inability to use preferred payment processors and lack of automatic fee adjustments are problematic. Users mention confusing trust accounting, non-refundable upfront charges, and challenges with merchant services. Many reviewers find the payment module expensive and complicated, impacting their firm’s financial operations.

Cumbersome document handling

Owner/Founder

The biggest issue is the file size limitation that can be uploaded to a file (capped at 1GB).Another issue that I ran into was that if I logged into MyCase on another tab or browser, I would be logged out of the first tab/browser (meaning I couldn't have two open at the same time), which was frustrating when it came to doing some data entry.

Prosecuting Attorney

Also, they are not responsive to client feedback, and when you try to leave they will not allow you to download your documents with their file numbers in bulk, but make you download one document at a time unless you pay them an additional fee.

44% of reviewers feel negative about Document Management, indicating MyCase’s document features are slow, restrictive, and difficult to use. Reviewers report file size limitations, slow uploads, and complicated editing processes.

It allows me to efficiently organize client files, track deadlines, and manage documents without having to switch between multiple systems.

It also makes sending bills and getting paid easy with LawPay integration, which allows the firm to collect and deposit funds into my Trust Account or Operating Account.  

I don't like their split billing process.   If I generate an invoice and split it between two people, and one person pays on the invoice and the other does not, I am not able to forward that invoice to the new invoice, and only bill the prior invoice to the one person who didn't pay.  

Lawyer

Billing is also robust allowing for time tracking, invoice generting, direct billing, etc.

Paralegal and Legal Assistant

I love the system and feel like it makes organizing my clients and also keeping them updated and informed very easy and it allows me to have the files organized and make sure I stay on top of everything.

Law Firm Manager and Assistant

The best feature of MyCase is what drew me to this case management software initially: it gives users a brilliant way to record time entries and expenses.

They require accounting “onboarding” which is two steps, not the one step they promise, and each appointment takes a week to schedule (they only do those on Tuesdays and Thursdays, according to their calendar system).
