Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The layout makes it easy to access all the tools I need to get my work done. It's quick and manageable.
  • We have had a very positive experience using Cerenade in our immigration practice. One of the aspects that stands out most is how easy the platform is to navigate. The system is well organized, and the case structure makes it simple to locate client information, documents, and case notes quickly. For a busy immigration office handling multiple case types such as Adjustment of Status, Consular Processing, and U Visa cases, having a platform where everything is centralized and clearly structured is extremely valuable. The interface is intuitive, allowing our legal assistants and support staff to learn the workflow without a long training period. Features such as case timelines, document storage, and internal notes are easy to access, which helps our team maintain efficiency and accuracy when working on client files.
  • I like that the system is very simple easy to navigate and very straightforward.
  • eIMMIGRATION is a very useful system for immigration practices with lots of features and customization to fit our needs. The support staff is incredibly helpful and always quick to reply with solutions or brainstorm processes. When there are issues with the software they are great about addressing them.
  • Very efficient. Service has been very reliable. I loved it. Whenever I had any issue, the customer service was ready to help. Very helpful, friendly, and professional.

Cons

  • I don't like that only one user can access an account at one time.
  • enhancements to automation and AI tools could make document assembly, case tracking, and reporting even more efficient for firms managing large case volumes.
  • I haven't come across any cons since the system is very reliable.
  • Depending on the type of cases, eIMMIGRATION can be inconsistent in how much software is built out in the form mapping and reports. Though they are quick to provide workarounds, it would be helpful in the long term if there was more support for CA state forms and an easier custom form mapping interface.
  • Few brackets are non-responsive out has glitches. State or zip code wouldn’t pop up although they are filled up in clients’ profile, especially on G-28. There are few other spots where such issues are there. If Cerenade uses all the forms to test time by time, that could be very helpful to detect and improve the system.

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.
