The UI would need an update also soon, starting to look out of date. ----- ### "Excellent Practice Management for Accountants" — 5.0/5 > **Max** | *13 March 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It does practice/project management really well, but the best part of it is the people behind support and development. They are continuously improving the product, seeking customer feedback, and are dedicated to a single space. I'm sure at some point some of this might change (looking at you Southwest), but right now I cannot say enough good things about the product or the people behind it. > > **Cons**: It's a little difficult to propagate changes to template base work items to recurring work items attached to clients. > > From support, development, to leadership, the company is excellent because they are focused on delivering value customers appreciate. They do this without feature stuffing, meaning they carefully reflect what would benefit customers the most, dig through the noise, and deliver things that really matter, not just the things that are requested. ----- ### "Essential for project and communication management" — 5.0/5 > **Alexa** | *24 February 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Karbon allows me to keep my time tracking, emails, and project management all in one place, and creates greater transparency within my firm. It is an essential tool in running my business\! > > **Cons**: It can at times be more difficult to track down an email in Karbon than it is to find it in my Google inbox. > > I have been using Karbon for years, and I will not be switching to an alternative platform. Karbon continues to evolve its software to better serve its customers, and its customer service is excellent -- you are always communicating with a real person within a reasonable amount of time. ----- ### "Reflections about Karbon" — 5.0/5 > **Simon** | *30 September 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Karbon is user friendly and task management is easy to follow and understand allowing one to comment for all team members to see if there is. any task still pending and the reasons for the task not to have been completed on time. > > **Cons**: So far, I am yet to come across any reason that I would consider. In terms of complexity, the system is very easy to use. > > Karbon is user friendly and easy to learn and adapt and unlike other systems, the speed is fast and data is handled securely. I would recommend the system to colleagues. ----- ### "You won't regret Karbon" — 5.0/5 > **Lisa** | *25 February 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The integration\! It can't be beat. It streamlines so many processes and adds a lot of transparency in client accounts and work. > > **Cons**: That the list view of work doesn't allow me to set a default view and that it always shows completed work that i have to filter out. And that I can't customize invoicing more to make all work one line versus job by job. > > I couldn't be happier. The program is completely worth the cost, the functionality is amazing and this is before I'm even an expert at the program, I love the integrations and am more excited about it as new features are added. Ie. the updated integration with OneDrive. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/106365/karbon?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/106365/karbon) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
