"Streamlined Project Management with 17Hats"

17Hats has been a game-changer for my business, allowing me to manage projects, send quotes, and handle contracts and invoices all in one place. The ability to create customized workflows for each project type has significantly improved my efficiency.

Pros

17Hats excels in keeping my business organized. I use it for every project, and its intuitive interface and streamlined workflows have made managing my business much simpler. The all-in-one platform has saved me countless hours by centralizing project management tasks.

Cons

The only area where 17Hats falls short is in its bookkeeping features. While it offers basic financial tracking, it lacks advanced accounting tools found in dedicated software. I miss the ability to capture and upload receipts directly, and I would appreciate the option to automate recurring expenses.

Lifelong Client. I always wait until the Black Friday Sale every year and buy an entire 2-3 year package, such a good deal!

Pros

Crisp and clean layout.
Ease of use.
Tutorials help get you started.
Great Template Options
Connects Bank account for bookkeeping/categorizing personal expenses or business expenses
Easily switch from Square to PayPal to accept payments.
The list goes on and on...it is truly a hit...

Cons

I wish they had a feature that texted reminders to clients about their upcoming appointments. This would be SUCH a helpful feature.
Does not let you see YTD Sales for previous years.

Don't Pay for This Annual Service

Reviewed on 2018/10/16

Nice folks answer questions, but they've just missed the bar on so much.

Nice folks answer questions, but they've just missed the bar on so much.

Pros

I like that they attempted to put everything all in one place and make life easier for an entrepreneur.

Cons

The site itself is cumbersome. Finding what you should be working on, seeing all your projects at a glance, moving around is frustrating. The invoices don't come with an automatic reminder feature that you can just "click" on...way too much setup for a subpar product. This is definitely one made for people who are NEW to business and business software. So many more SAAS products out there doing a better job.

How do you now have recurring revenue as a feature? That's fundamental. So then you're chasing people for invoices to be paid. No one wants that.

Also, they make you pay for a full year. And refuse to honor if you are slightly outside of the 30-day refund window. And now they have your money for 11 more months. Not a good customer service model.

When we first started we had to log into 5-6 different websites to access different business solutions and it felt impossible to remember everything. 17hats has helped us from feeling overwhelmed with all the different aspects of running a small business. It's​ like having a personal assistant to keep you on track.

Pros

Having one place for our invoicing, bookkeeping​, calendars & workflows has helped us tremendously​. We definitely feel like fewer​ things get overlooked because it is all right there in the same place.

Cons

It would be helpful to have some options to better organize the document & email section. Maybe ​a folder feature so we can go in and edit the email templates from there instead of through an active workflow. This would be helpful when we need to just find all the emails in regards to a specific type of workflow to make overall changes.
