Ignition

Best Proposal Software Available!

Commentaires : It has been so easy to work with Practice Ignition, and anytime I can't figure out how to do something, our account manager [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] has been really quick to help me! He even created a workflow map for our process which showed us what we needed to work on/could automate to help our business even more!

Avantages :

We initially switched to Practice Ignition because it had the ability to collect payments when clients signed proposals plus it could do the reoccurring billing for us at the same time instead of us having to set it all up in QB. Clients can update their own payment settings, an the proposal process is really easy. Recently, they made changes which allow us to present multiple options within one proposal, as well as do variable billing and it has made things even better! Their support and webinars are incredibly helpful and we are so glad we switched to them! They really understand what we need for proposals and the bulk creation through support will definitely be helpful when tax season comes!

Inconvénients :

The thing we liked the least was we couldn't send options within the same proposal like we did in our old proposal software, but that's changed now! I think the only other issue we really still have is the ability to collect international payments

Amazing Product for Accountants/Bookkeepers alike

Commentaires : My business has grown over 200% since i started this platform and the payment process has been smooth and very effective one.

Avantages :

You have proposal , Document manage, and digital signature along payment system. it basically solved 4 problems in one platform

Inconvénients :

the time it takes money and distribute from banking of a client as opposed to credit card.

Watch Your Chargebacks

Commentaires : It's going to be easier and to be more in control of my clients since it doesn't matter there's no recourse once Practice Ignition chooses to believe the other person instead of the people paying for the service. I can do the same thing and work directly with any challenges instead of just sucking it up and losing thousands more.

Avantages :

After getting used to it, it didn't seem bad at first but then the charge backs hit without any formal notice nor warning.

Inconvénients :

A former client said they didn't receive the services, Practice Ignition asked me to defend the potential charge back but then it was a waste of my time to do anything because they took back the entire amount, on top of already having charged me for the merchant fees.

This tool has made it easier and more efficient to communicate the terms of our engagements to clients, while ensuring that we have a clear record of the client reviewing and signing off on these terms.

With so many subscription costs these days, we had to weigh whether the benefits outweigh the annual cost of the product.

The credit card fee was the only initial drawback.

Ignition is a must for client contract management

Avantages :

The platform is very user friendly. I love the ability to set up engagement periods of direct debit. This improves my company cash flow substantially.

Inconvénients :

Ignition is on the expensive side. I wish it could be more affordable.

Ignition works wonderfully

Commentaires : Excellent tool for overall contract management, with a great client experience.

Avantages :

Ease of use for the clients, and able to control some of the payment options. Clients managing their own CC expirations etc is also nice. Also, the recurring billing I don't have to execute each month - the system just does it.

Inconvénients :

Initial template setup can feel daunting, but using their help and customer service can speed past that process.

Bags of functionality but simple and easy to use

Commentaires : We needed a system that would allow us to easily send out our contracts and obtain signatures. This system allows us to do this and more.

Avantages :

The product is easy to set up with your own products and contracts and the process for creating proposals and contracts is simple and highly configurable. It's a system that is packed full of features and yet it isn't out of reach of the smaller business.

Inconvénients :

None that I can think of. The simple interface makes it a pleasure to use.

Makes Receiving back Signed Proposals So Quick & Easy!

Avantages :

In other years we would have to work so hard to get signatures for Engagement Letters but with this systems there is no chasing clients around. They have to sign and accept the Proposal & Engagement prior to us doing any work.

Inconvénients :

We are still pretty new to Ignition, as we use more aspects of the Software we may find things that work better for us.

Ignition is one of the key programmes in my app stack

Commentaires : Been amazing from the first call to current use

Avantages :

The ease of use and the in-depth onboarding made sure my templates were ready and easy to access. It allows me to send through proposals quickly and track if or how often they have been viewed

Inconvénients :

In South Africa, we don't yet have stripe to its not linked to any other subscription payment method compatible in South Africa

Amazing and Easy to Use Software

Commentaires : We have been using it for around 2 years now and it has made giving life so much easier! Sending and giving quotes to clients as well as detailed description of all of our services has made it so much smoother.

Avantages :

Definitely the ability to make payment/conditions around when clients pay. It makes it very flexible. It is also quite easy to use, in particular the classic PI.

Inconvénients :

I haven't had much training with the New Proposal Editor but it is quite a lot to look at.

Engagement letters on Steroid makes getting paid FUN!

Commentaires : great tool freat support its a value add, you know when the sales guys start talking ROI and comapring the time savings then your eyes glaze over cause you know obviously its not as good cause they have to work to sell it, ..... well Ignition app really does give an ROI without having to

Avantages :

makes it easy to prepare, send and get paid, whilst making the client aware of exactly what you are doing and what is expebted of THEM

Inconvénients :

only like to be able to have 2 or more signatories but that is minor issue

I absolutely love Practice Ignition

Commentaires : Practice Ignition has made engaging with our clients a seamless process. We deal with a large volume of clients and with how easy and efficient the systems are, we are able to quickly send proposals, collect payment with virtually no administrative burden, and have great reporting around every step of the process. I can not recommend this product enough, it is truly one of my favorite programs that we work with inside of our firm and the the support team is just as great to work with! Thank you so much!!

Avantages :

- Fast - Intuitive - Option to collect payment in order to sign - Low amount of admin needed - Amazing support team, fast turn around - Scalable - Open to feedback, they actually listen!!

Inconvénients :

I legitimately do not have a single con that I would give. the only thing even close would be there is not currently a way to display a discount for a service item directly from the standard cost of the service. This is something that I have left feedback on and is already slated to be adjusted in a future update. to my previous point, they actually listen to feedback which is amazing.

PI has been a game changer for our business in a period of growth

Commentaires : We were spending a lot of time on engagements, especially as a growing practice. We also were making mistakes (as using word) and PI has proved invaluable. We started using it in 2017 and would highly recommend to businesses who need to engage clients / send terms of business etc.
We link with XPM and Xero, and I think we need to iron out a few issues (mostly XPM related!), but could not be without it. What used to take a few hours and not look great, now takes 5 minutes and creates a great first impression. We attach our brochure and kick of the process of engagement / job set up / invoicing etc.
Also better control over changes in terms etc - just one place to keep up to date.

Avantages :

A one stop shop for a great looking engagement letter that links to our job management system, creating the jobs and importing the client info.

Inconvénients :

I look forward to more features being added with the integration with XPM, so recurring dates can be more flexible, budgets imported against jobs. But I am confident this is advancing all the time which is great.

Ignition Review

Commentaires : Overall, our experience with Ignition has been extremely positive and well received. It has streamlined our internal workflow, onboarding and engagement processes to facilitate better delivery of value services to our clients.

Avantages :

Client engagement process together with workflow integration with our practice management system is seamless and efficient. The client user experience has been positive and the automatic fee collection is a convenient and welcomed feature.

Inconvénients :

Reporting functions are very basic. Limited capacity to easily and readily identify which proposals require manual invoicing - "On Completion".

Kaizen Business Adsvisory Review

Commentaires : Hands down one of the best subscriptions in the accoutning nindustry

Avantages :

Automation into Xero, and automated recurring invoices

Inconvénients :

Time it takes for fgunds to clear into business account

A great product

Commentaires : It has allowed us to move from the more traditional time billing system to a fixed fee program that clients seem to really like. One day we won't need timesheets and this will help us get there!

Avantages :

I love this program for ease of use. it does what it needs to. I can set quotes to be sent out and when they are accepted they fill in bank details to do direct debit. I don't need to do anything else. I love the new update for recurring billing so I don't have to send out new annual fee quotes if we agree that the same price is still relevant.

Inconvénients :

I possibly don't use it to its full capacity as when we started using it the software was very basic but the new updates are making it a bit better. I don't have much negative to say.

The BEST Payment Processor / Engagement software

Commentaires : Great and their customer service is excellent.

Avantages :

It's saved me a ton of money in two instances where a client tried to back out of paying for work that was already in process or completed. I have an accounting firm with larger clients. I have the software set up to only accept ACH, which gives me more control over refunds / charge backs. I love that it has everything together: the engagement letter, the scope of work and the payment all in one.

Inconvénients :

The user design is just ok. It's not bad but there's a lot of manual data entry in the beginning.
