    Use it when you have a small workforce or handle most tasks alone. It's an ecosystem of relationships, and explaining the relationships between components can be hard for others. Like approval channels setup and how it affects invoice coding for approval. Better to separate these aspects between the admin and the clerk. Incredibly helpful in evaluating your workload and planning weekly check runs. Allows you to see far ahead what's coming down the pipeline and course-correct as appropriate. Seamless sync with QuickBooks. Great customer service, always responding promptly and on point.

    Square Invoices is the best service that I have found for what it does: it's easy to use, nice to look at, and never seems to go to spam or be lost by clients. Clients mention that the setup is easier than services my competitors use. You can even attach your contract to the invoice, which is wonderful in case there are questions later on. Unfortunately, not being able to have clients alter quantities or select add-ons means for half of my services, I have to use a different, inferior service.

    • Adding a customer to invoice is super simple and takes minimal effort.
    • Payment collection is easy and seamless because Square Invoices allows the recipient to pay using credit/cards.
    • One of the fest features is allowing invoices to be recurring. If my contract stipulates a flat fee monthly, I can set the invoices to recur monthly for the duration of the contract.

    Cons
    Quadient
    • I wish the export function allowed more options for the posting date of invoices. All invoices have the same posting date once they reach Sage 300, but this must be changed when they reach the transaction file. We should have the option of using the invoice date as the posting date or a selected date.

    • The reports section is not always the easiest to understand. It seems like I have to stop and think about options instead of it being 100% intuitive.
    • With the fees we pay per transaction, it would be nice to be able to add additional "limited" users for no extra cost.

    At this time we don't really need to review the use of the program. In the future as we grow with new partnerships, purchases and expenses and revenue we may at some point look at reviewing our use but for now and the immediate future there is no need to review such

    Usability
    Quadient
    It's a fairly simple and easy to understand product. it is very intuitive. we were able to have our entire staff up and running within a week of our go live date with limited training required. Once everyone learned how to use it, there hasn't been any questions or errors. the layout is logical and the filtering options are quick and easy to use

    The only time I had a problem was a false chargeback from a client. Square Invoices referenced our contract and ruled in my favor, and they did so in a timely manner. I sent them the contract and my email history with the client, and they quickly unfroze the amount of money.

    Square Invoices is easier to use and automatically transfers your money to your bank account vs Paypal that holds your money and you have to manually transfer and it takes 3-5 days (many times more). Square Invoices looks better overall, and for the same fees as Paypal, provides a better service overall.

    • I love that I can sort my invoices in total, or by a specific time period to see how my sales are doing and comparing to prior time periods.
