Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I love that everything is in one place. Calendars, zoom integration, editing/updating documents easily, contacts, and billing are all in one place. I find its organization skills are excellent for both smaller and larger firms.
  • Among many features that Clio can offer us we highlight the following: The real time tracking is excellent and effective, it allows us a simultaneous and accurate automation with Microsoft Word for job delivery improvement, the calendar management is amazing as it has no glitches and allows us to add to each report a personalized electronic signature.
  • First of all, Clio is quite practical due to its visual customization, and its automation is very optimized in terms of actions. Apart from integrating a good chat system, it allows the elaboration of a text by simply clicking on generate document and start writing.
  • Irrelevant of how many dynamics can be applied to the same case file, it will remain free of formatting errors and will not slow down the system, which would normally happen with any other legal case management system, since most do not offer good integrations as Clio does. Our recommendation about Clio is to learn to exploit the tools it offers not only in case management terminology, but also as a software operator of automated messages, notification-based reminders, and more. Its technology is recommended for any work department.
  • Clio addresses one of the work environments where there are currently fewer services to work with: purely legal case operations. With Clio it is possible to provide clients with a stable and direct advocacy service, where they can feel confident with the development of their cases.

Cons

  • Updating contacts or adding a related contact to a matter can be quite difficult at times. I’ve found that rather than redirecting you back to the matter you just added a contact to, it will direct you to the contact. Additionally, sometimes it takes a couple minutes for the search options to actually update. If I’ve added a new matter into Clio, it will take around 5 refreshes before it actually shows up in the search bar.
  • As a main flaw we realized that we can not deliver directly from Clio a PDF file, but you have to download in another format and convert it, which makes us lose time sometimes; also, the notes tend to be somewhat disorganized.
  • Although its usability is quite simple, it has new tools for many individuals and the training through instructional videos that it offers are generally basic and difficult to understand. Similarly, if you need technical support from their assistants you will not get anything, they offer lousy service.
  • Clio unfortunately does not operate with digital tools for instant communication, so these services must be used in parallel if you want to keep clients updated on case progress and projections (only in a situation where live messaging or phone calls are warranted).
  • Clio is great, and allows us to deliver our case reports always within the estimated time frame. No negative points were found during the experience of using Clio, nor were there any inconveniences while working, so we proceed to make the review completely positive.
