It's client onboarding and matter opening process is quick and easy. And, PP incorporates convenient solutions to its subscriptions, such as document signing, without the need to pay additional fees. > > **Cons**: Although the interface is to the point, it does feel outdated. Some of the buttons and dropdown menus are a bit small. > > An efficient, yet advanced case management system, that is enough for any solo practitioner. Quality customer service. ----- ### "Very good value for the money, but could use more work." — 4.0/5 > **James** | *10 June 2026* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: PracticePanther did an excellent job with its ease of use, customer support, and value for the money. It's interface from the perspective of the lawyer and staff user was exceptional. > > **Cons**: I was not as pleased with the document management function. Because it was not integrated, it required a different system to share documents with clients. The billing function was also something with which many clients seemed to struggle. The client portal did not include a lot of the functionality we wanted for our clients. > > Overall, I was pleased with PracticePanther but we had to make a switch because its lack of document management and lack of a robust client portal made other options more attractive for us and our clients. ----- ### "Happy camper\!" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *26 August 2024* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use - short learning curve, accessibility of support for problems and consideration of suggestions, frequent additions to functionality > > **Cons**: There were a few glitches in its early years that were a nuisance, but they appear resolved now. It is a little pricey for a solo firm, but it makes practice much smoother\! > > I have used PP for several years. Developers were easy to contact in the beginning, but staff has grown and support does the job now. I usually have new staff up and running within a few days with the basics - calendaring appointments, invoicing, card payments, setting up new clients. Thank you for a great product that keeps improving\! ----- ### "Perfect for small firms" — 5.0/5 > **Clinton** | *31 December 2024* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Using Practice Panther is intuitive largely because of the logical graphic layout. Things are exactly where you think they should be. My staff has needed very little time to come up to speed on Practice Panther. > > **Cons**: I have no complaints. I would, however, make the colors customizable per user for fun. > > My firm has used Practice Panther for 5+ years without any issue. It has grown with us. ----- ### "Almost complete…" — 4.0/5 > **Courtenay Elizabeth** | *22 March 2025* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Invoicing integration with WiseTime; convenient esigning of documents. > > **Cons**: Time-tracking is not included but requires use of separate software > > I have enjoyed it but customer service has been somewhat challenging, as in no answers at the time of call. ----- Page: 1 / 22\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/152365/practicepanther?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/152365/practicepanther) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
