Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It simple, easy to navigate and actually relevant. No, there isn't custom financial report, massive stock inventory tracking or huge HR pages but as a small garage these are features I had to pay for with other systems that I would never use.

Cons

  • Still in development, some features are shown as coming soon.
