17Hats saves me tons of time & helps me keep my clients happy.

Pros

  • I like the automated workflows that I can set up that run without me, but still look professional and give a great client experience.
  • It's really convenient that you can pull financial information into it as well.
  • I love how I can create and store templates for all of my offers to onboard my clients and their contracts as well.

Cons

  • Prior to this I was using only Stripe for my invoices and I loved that I could see all of my recurring client payments under "subscriptions." There might be a way to do this in 17Hats, but I'm just not sure. I like to be able to quickly see all of my current clients at a glance.

Return on Investment
