GetApp offers objective, independent research and verified user reviews. We may earn a referral fee when you visit a vendor through our links.
Our commitment
Independent research methodology
Our researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.
Verified user reviews
GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews. We may also share aggregated ratings and select excerpts from those reviews throughout our site.
Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.
How GetApp ensures transparency
GetApp lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. GetApp is free for users. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website.

“On any given day I'm managing court deadlines, client communications, e-filings, pleadings, discovery, publications, billing, and hundreds of active matters at various stages of litigation and administration.”
WR
Wanda R.
Estate Litigation Paralegal
“I use it for all of my billing and payment, along with document management, including e signature for clients. if I ever have a problem, I can easily chat with customer service and they have always helped me with whatever issue I have.”

Carlia W.
Attorney, Owner
“The case notes, task management, document storage, billing, and client communication tools work together in a way that helps me stay organized even when I'm juggling dozens of urgent matters at once.”

Wanda R.
Estate Litigation Paralegal
Pros
“I kept a stand-alone license of Abacus (Amicus's successor) just to ensure I could access data for cases pending prior to changing case management software products. Once those cases had concluded, I decided to close down Abacus and sent a notice of cancellation.”
RK
Richard K.
Partner/Owner
“A very basic service.”
KT
Katie T.
Owner
“It asks all the right questions and requested a wealth of information on behalf of the client.”
DS
Deidre' S.
Associate Attorney
Cons
“The text messaging integration is difficult to get working; Can be somewhat laggy at times; The basic templating for clients could be improved”
LS
Louis S.
Legal Assistant
“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. ”
NS
Niccole S.
Paralegal
“My old client information was poorly organized and I was not able simply upload everything into MyCase. ”
TA
Todd A.

Cons
“I have never been so disgusted by the treatment I received when I tried to cancel my service after over a decade (to move to another software IN THEIR COMPANY.)”
KT

“I didn’t like that we had a difficult time getting into our system if their system was down.”
