Overall Satisfaction with Wave Accounting

It is being used for my business to handle my accounting needs: invoicing, payments, bills.
  • Easy to use
  • Free version
  • Customer service, bot chat only or email
  • Changed/cancelled payment services without warning
  • Negative impact! Now I have to export my transactions into another program!
The best feature about wave is that they let you use it for free for basic accounting and pay per use payments. But based on my horrible experience with how they cancelled my payments feature, I would never use them again!

No

Did implementation of Wave Accounting go as expected?

No

Would you buy Wave Accounting again?

No

It has some good features but will never use them again because they just arbitrarily cancel features I’m using without warning.
Only bot support or email support. Stinks!!!
I would not recommend Wave based on how they treated me and my business. Yes, I’m a small business so I was attracted to their free service, which was great for me, but... I was not able to connect my bank and most importantly they cancelled my ability to receive payments with giving me warning. They just sent me an email saying that they determined that there was risk and turned it off. So, payments that I just received was refunded. I had to inform my clients that they needed to pay me again! What risks are there? I was receiving payments via credit card, they were taking their cut? I only had a handful of transactions?
