"Wave accounting review."
3.5/5
What do you like best about Wave?

I like the mobile aspect of scanning receipts and inputting data on the fly. It can gather all my accounts and display everything on one single interface. Very easy to use. This app makes my books and life a lot easier to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wave?

Some of my accounts(companies) could not load. But that's because my bank didn't allow this service. I want more videos to explain in detail how to integrate and semi-automate my accounting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gets the job done, doesn't play well at scale"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Wave?

It's low cost and provides an essential tool kit for small businesses online, but it falls short when you're scaling your business up. Trying to do anything more complex than their workflows will be difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wave?

I don't think the ecosystem is built for growing your company; if you don't have more than a few employees, then it's perfect if you plan on hiring contracts or doing business in multiple currencies, it becomes challenging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome software and its free!"
5/5
What do you like best about Wave?

Wave does an incredible job of providing free software that small businesses can use to manage their finances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wave?

The lack of support can be a bit frustrating. This is always something you can expect with free software, however, it would be nice to at least offer proper support for a monthly fee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Wave for the future"

"Great accounting product for small business owners."

Manually submission is sometimes tedious, there could be easier ways for common transactions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
