It's ability to handle complex billing arrangements in a proposal. It is the only platform I have come across that can easily manage up front fees, with recurring billing for a fixed period, and display this easily on a proposal. 2. I love the fact that you can set the proposal to require a credit card or bank details before it is accepted. Practice Ignition then collects the funds for you. One of the most difficult parts of running a service business is getting paid, but with Practice Ignition it takes that all away because the upfront fee is billed on acceptance, then the recurring billable amount is billed as set out in the proposal. It couldn't be easier. 3. The integration Practice Ignition has with Xero and WorkflowMax (XPM) is incredible. Once a proposal is accepted, it creates the job in WorkflowMax based on the job templates you have setup in WorkflowMax, and creates the invoices in Xero. It literally takes all the administration out of running a professional services company. > > **Cons**: There are a few features I would like to see Practice Ignition develop, but after speaking with them they are going to push it right up the priority list as they agree. These features are: 1. The ability to create a recurring rate on recurring jobs 2. The ability to set a due date on a job - at the moment this is picked up from the contract end date. My understanding is this will be sorted soon, so by the time you read this it may be sorted\! ----- ### "Great at what they do." — 4.0/5 > **Kaylee** | *16 January 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: A streamlined proposal process that looks great and professional, and helps automate the engagement process > > **Cons**: Pricing makes it unrealistic for small businesses. Being only one stage of the process makes it difficult to work between Ignition with another practice management solution to manage everything else like projects, tasks, etc. For many an all in one solution works better even though Ignition can integrate with many other PM platforms. ----- ### "Watch Your Chargebacks" — 2.0/5 > **Dwayne** | *10 July 2019* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: After getting used to it, it didn't seem bad at first but then the charge backs hit without any formal notice nor warning. > > **Cons**: 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. > > 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. ----- ### "Ignition - an important tool in my proposals and ongoing invoicing" — 5.0/5 > **Naomi** | *30 October 2023* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that I can send a proposal quickly and then my clients are invoiced and pay when invoices are due. it has reduced my chasing people to pay invoices and having to remember to send them which was always my issue. > > **Cons**: If there was a way to get digital signatures that weren't part of the 'proposal' system that would be amazing. Also if there was a bit more personalisation of reporting so you could opt in to be notified when proposals were coming up for renewal etc > > It has been a gamechanger as far as preparing proposals and getting paid on time. I used to use a similar but cheaper product and it took a lot longer to prepare proposals and still meant I had to invoice customers directly. Ignition has absolutely made my life easier. ----- ### "Our ONE platform for proposals, invoicing, and AR\!" — 5.0/5 > **Savannah** | *21 July 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: All of the features on one platform; integrates with Quickbooks > > **Cons**: Sometimes the site VERY TEMPORARILY (1-5 minutes, every six months or so, has been my experience) unavailable\! The pro is that the improvements have been awesome\! > > Coming from a different field, and needing to learn how to manage proposals/invoicing/payment collection quickly, Ignition has been incredible. We started around March of 2021 and have been extremely happy with the ease of proposal creation + sending (clear PDF versions, automatic reminders to prospect, visibility into when a prospect has viewed the proposal, multiple templating options and clear platform design), invoicing (I set up invoices to automatically run during the month and don't have to worry about collection unless I get an email that payment failed\!), and payment collection. Ignition sends helpful emails like credit card expirations and payment failures\! I really appreciate how I can utilize the different updates and changes they make to the platform, but I don't have to take courses to understand how to use Ignition\! My concerns are promptly addressed, and meeting quarterly with our Key Account Manager has helped us tremendously\! ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/270172/practice-ignition?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/270172/practice-ignition) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
