I love how easy it is to invoice, do timesheets, track profitability and how they all work together in the same software. > > **Cons**: It has a few quirks, but half the time it's user error, and the other half are so minor. I wish the expenses were imported automatically. > > After working for years with large companies and seeing the software that they used, I knew I needed something. The big names were not suited for my new startup. Squava is. ----- ### "Wonderful Software that saves thousand of dollars every month" — 5.0/5 > **Bradley** | *13 June 2022* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Cons**: The financial transition from QBO. It highlighted many issues with our own books, but some items appear to have been shifted in the process. We overcame it with help from the team at Squava. > > My firm just wrapped up the transition from Quickbooks Online to Squava. As a professional services firm (civil engineering/landscape architecture), this software fit the bill perfectly. I had worked for years creating custom spreadsheets for utilization, work in progress, progress billing, etc that QBO was unable to handle fully. I can now say I do not use any of those anymore. One of the largest issues for us with QBO was the ability to modify current contracts several times over integrating both Time and Material jobs with fixed fee which Squava does seamlessly. The other feature we rely on is the timesheets. Our team members are able to see in real time how much fee is left on a specific task which helps see the progress of the job and plan accordingly. This is the first time I have had staff say they actually like the timesheets. Billing is the other massive time saver for me and my team. Squava has shaved days off of my billing review cycle. There are lots more features that compound the investment value. Worth every penny. ----- ### "Simple\!" — 5.0/5 > **Casey** | *3 March 2020* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We switched from QuickBooks to SQUAVA for our small business and I'm so glad we did\! As the primary user, I can say that I have loved the simplicity of the software and the easy navigation. > > **Cons**: I have a few features that I miss from QuickBooks, but SQUAVA is consistently working on updates and improvements and I'm excited to know those features are coming and probably in a far more simple format. :) ----- ### "Easy and quick" — 5.0/5 > **Clement** | *17 June 2020* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The design of Squava is clean and fresh and easy to use. The project management side is amazing and gives a quick and intuitive look at projects and how they are trending. It makes it so much easier to understand where you are going as a company. Business owners need to know their numbers and Squava really helps. Saying that invoicing has become easy and quick is an understatement. You can zoom through invoices and present as much or as little information as you want/need to your customer. This has been a major time saver. Entering time has also been streamlined and employees are no longer spending an hour on their time sheet. You can also pin tasks if you have a weekly meeting for example. > > **Cons**: Coming from a combination of Core/QuickBooks, I will miss the QuickBooks API with our bank for the time being. Squava is actively working to develop it so I am not too worried. > > Overall, it has been nothing short of amazing. The set up was easy, the integration worked great and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has been a big help making this happen. Having a good tracking software has actually boosted morale because is it no longer a pain to deal with and we get everything in one place. ----- ### "Love Squava\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jill** | *9 December 2019* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great way to track our projects, hours and expenses. Very easy to use, and the support has been great\! > > **Cons**: I'm only about a month into it, and can't find a con yet. Conversion is taking some time, but support has offered to help us get on board, and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has been great\! > > We were looking for something easier to use than BQE Core. It was too complicated for the size of our company and what we were trying to accomplish. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/461104/SQUAVA?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/461104/SQUAVA) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
