SimpleLegal is easy to use and easy to understand for everyone in the legal department. Their customer service is typically quick to respond and solve any issues that may arise on the customer side as well as the vendor side (CounselGo). There has been a bit of customer dissatisfaction since being acquired by Onit but the enhancements and roadmap continue to look promising.
Soluno works well in a smaller firm that is not transaction heavy. I would not recommend this solution to a transaction-heavy or larger law firm such as a busy real estate practice
Soluno does not allow for multiple trust to general transfers in one transaction.
In my opinion, Soluno is difficult to create/customize reports and billing templates.
As Soluno has grown, I feel their support has gotten poor.
From my experience, Soluno is glitchy at times and appears to be an ongoing project which has farther to go to meet the needs of larger law firms.
Soluno works best for firms that are not transaction heavy. It is not a product I would recommend to a busy real estate firm or any other type of law that is transaction heavy.
Soluno does not allow for fee allocation until after a file is billed IE: you cannot split a fee between a responsible attorney and a working attorney at the time entry level.
The training and support can use improvement.
Needs to be easier to customize re: user security, billing templates, custom reports.
SimpleLegal was much easier to use and train users on than Time Matters. SimpleLegal had all of the functionality but not as many customizable features as Time Matters.
PCLaw still has more to offer overall than Soluno however neither program is without its issues. Soluno is still limited in its overall offerings compared to PCLaw. As a cloud-based solution Soluno is still the best option on the market at this time
Able to track in real-time legal spend against budgets to hold outside counsel responsible while meeting our fiscal demands--rather than wait on Finance report monthly/quarterly/etc.
