Bonasi makes it incredibly easy to create, edit, and send proposals and contracts. What would have taken me countless hours of research, copying and pasting from other online sources, took mere minutes with their easy to use contract templates. The overall UI is clean and simplified making it easy for me to see what payments I have due and what contracts and other documents need signing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The automation is fairly basic compared with other similar software like HoneyBook. Not that I need too much automation as I only have a few clients, but that type of functionality would be nice in future updates. I also don't like that the forms option is restricted to the top payment tier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bonsai is so complete when it comes to all the project management, invoicing, and accounting. I love to use it and have an overview of my performance all at once. It's a powerful tool I recommend to everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes it can be a bit hard to edit the information the way I would like to, but it remains marginal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have only been using bonsai for three weeks now, and it has helped me organize my business way faster! I cannot believe that ORGANIZATION was one bonsai away! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would love to have more automation options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that I get to organize different tasks with different clients on different projects in ONE PLACE! That's awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I hate that I cannot export my time tracking. I have to take a screenshot to show my clients my tracked time. I would love to be able to export them in a PDF or spreadsheet file for any other purpose that I may need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bonsai is the most intuitive freelance tool I've ever used. I've used all the different freelancing tools out there from Quickbooks, AndCo, Square, Due, Invoicely, etc. and none compare to how feature-packed Bonsai is. It has all the features you would need to have a service-based business, including invoicing, time tracking, proposals, contracts, accounting (+tax estimates). It's the best tool for a Sole Proprietor by far without having to pay the annoying fees their competitors charge. It keeps me extremely organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there were more support for non-Sole Proprietor users. I genuinely love using this tool, from the UI to all the different features, but the fact that if I scale my business, I'll eventually need to migrate off this to a more enterprise-supported tool like Quickbooks is unfortunate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's affordable for a small freelancer (annual discount). Makes me look professional and sophisticated while working in my pajamas on my laptop. Keeps all my client contracts, forms and invoices in one place. I can use my own logo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish they offered different font selections for signing the contract. That's the only thing I don't like! Everything else is AMAZING! (They did add TONS of font options for contracts, maybe they will add new fonts for Signatures also.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bonsai is a straightforward and effective piece of software - I loved how simple they kept it and how easy it was for me to navigate through the system.
It offers an invoice system, a way to store your client information, add projects, which is every freelancer or agency's dream.
With the invoice system, you can invoice your clients in almost one click.
If you want to be paid hourly, they have a time tracking software with a timer and a way to manually add hours.
Finally they have a task system, which provides a straightforward way to organize your projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I liked everything. However, what really needs to be added is a way to support more payment methods; Payoneer and Transferwise (Wise) are good examples; I sadly don't have Paypal or Stripe to test the Payments feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that I can send out proposals, you can see when a client has viewed and accepted it and it automatically has an invoice for it.
Super handy and i can track all my projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That i cant just send out quotes on it, I have to do a project and send out a proposal from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Simple to use, creates a very professional experience for clients, and they keep adding new features all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the navigation is a little confusing at times and the mobile app isn't as powerful (full-featured) as the mobile web experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
