Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The interface is a big improvement over our previous software. Timekeepers are very happy with the ease of posting dockets and particularly enjoy the heat map to review time targets and daily entries. We have enjoyed increased billing efficiency for clients with multiple invoices in a billing period. Support is very responsive, friendly and effective. We were able to integrate the software with our DMS.
  • This program is so user friendly and easy to use, it makes the accounting side of running a firm fun! Customer service is nothing short of wonderful. Support team is very responsive and give a clear impression that they want to help - no question is too silly.
  • Easy to use. Quick response from customer service. Problems are resolved. quickly. The trust accounting is accurate and has appropriate reports. Interface is clean and easy to navigate. Soluno integrates well with credit card processing system.
  • I really like the data input section. Most daily functions are conveniently found on one page.
  • Easy to use, any time we've had any problem we have been able to immediately reach someone via the chat feature and have it remedied. It's made our lives a lot easier. The training was very informative and we feel like we were able to get the hang of the new system fairly quick. Good value for the money.

Cons

  • As newer software, there are some features, adjustments and reports that are not yet available. Soluno has added features and continues to update the software (even in the short time we have been with them), so I expect my rating will be 5 stars by the end of this year.
  • We are new to the program, so still ironing out some kinks, but just a couple of things we have noticed. It is not yet possible to delete or close files, but I understand they are working on that and there was a hack we were taught to organize all files we need to delete together, so they are easily identifiable. At this stage, we have not yet been able to figure out how to allocate write downs to a specific fee earner on bills, for accurate recording of a fee earner's billed amount for bonus purposes.
  • Soluno does not currently have any budgeting capabilities.
  • Fee adjustment at time of billing needs improvement.
  • A couple things we've looked for haven't been there or were hard to find, but the few things that were missing that we needed were remedied by the team within a week.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I have been using uLaw since I started my sole practice in Canadian immigration law about 7 years ago. A colleague was using it at the time and suggested I try it out. I am extremely happy with uLaw. To be clear, I hate accounting, but I knew that my practice is small enough where I could handle everything if I had the right tools. uLaw has proven to be the right tool for my accounting and bookkeeping needs. I keep it simple and uLaw allows me to do that without being overwhelmed by over choice or a confusing interface. I've had to contact customer service a number of times to figure out what reports are needed for taxes, HST return reviews, and law society compliance audits. Each time I've contacted customer service they have been very responsive and extremely helpful. They understand the product deeply and they understand my question, even when I'm not always sure exactly what I'm asking for.
  • Like the lost seminars that uLaw provided and training us. learning from the roommate also form the instructor.
  • The service is web based, highly customizable, allows for BI and is great for book keeping as well as CRM functions, and produces very professional-looking documents. However, the best feature is the dedicated after-sales support -- from what I'm told it far surpasses other similar solution providers. For that reason alone, I wouldn't switch from uLaw.
  • The follow-up by staff when you do not know how to do something in ULaw or reverse something, is very timely. The product itself is very comprehensive. I like that the product is Canadian and fairly affordable, especially given the discount given in your first year as a user and in comparison to U.S. software I considered. The compliance tab (with the LSO) is a great resource.
  • uLawPractice is a legal software and bookkeeping in one. Additionally, the technical support team is very knowledgeable about the program and extremely helpful. The response time is only within a few hours. uLawPractice assists law firms with audit ready checklists and reports. Lots of help videos, weekly webinars and live technical support are available to help with learning the software.

Cons

  • Sometimes information populates in template forms a little oddly and sometimes invoices/receipts are a bit slow to generate/download.
  • Like the most topic that you guy provided. all of topic are valuable.
  • There are no cons to using uLaw. I would recommend uLaw to anyone running their own practice.
  • I find that often the Ulaw Answers do not provide an answer for something I am trying to do. The sound on the videos is low. I like that they are to-the-point and quick, but I think more need to be added, even though there are already hundreds to filter through. The ULaw answers are useful sometimes, but I do not use the Guide. It should not even be called one I think, as the few times I have gone in to it forgetting that it is not a guide in the sense that I think of as a guide - terms with a table of contents. I really missed not having access to a resource like that when I was a beginner, although I had ULaw answers and Gayathri from ULaw Support, Bless her. I found flow charts or menu paths would have been helpful. Ex. what do you do first in ULaw when you have a new client, where do you go next... Sometimes it appears as if there are different ways to do the same thing , but you end up choosing the wrong path. The incorrect spelling throughout ULaw annoys me a little as a former English teacher and do not find it leaves a professional image for the company.
  • Not designed for large law firms. The software may seem difficult to navigate at first.
