  • Trust them not

    After years of using joist I moved away from them, Wave app has been a much better replacement. Previously this is what I reviewed Joist has continued to show they are a bad investment. They promised to stay free, then set a price scheme, but still a bit free though they took away most things, understand that, but now they have nothing free after getting us all locked in. The app isn’t that great to begin with, why would we want to deal with more, it’s just time to jump ship and go somewhere else, wave app seems to keep their word at this point so that’s an option.
  • Customers not able to pay me

    I’ve used this app for many years and my business has survived using it along with payments my customers make through the platform, I haven’t received any paid invoices in a couple weeks now because my customers aren’t able to make payments through the portal, it won’t accept their email addresses or card numbers! No customer service after certain hours, unfortunately it’s time to move on.
  • Robbed me of a 1 year subscription

    I’ve been sending joist emails and am unable to start a live chat. There is no phone number or support to call. My account has constant error messages and will not let me collect payments online. I don’t know who to call next but as of right now I have had zero response from joist.
  • So far so good

    Everything about this service is very easy to use and makes conducting business far more efficient from estimating to recording payment. My only complaint is that i am not able to label estimates by job name only by contact which can make searching different projects through the same client more difficult. Over all i have been very pleased with this tool.
  • Great app just needs more

  • Great with one flaw

    I’ve been using this app for a couple years and even upgraded to the paid version as I got busier. It works well for my needs. I have one big issue I hope they can easily fix. Quite often I’m using the app on my phone. Sometimes I’m mostly done creating an estimate and get a call or have to stop what I’m doing for a bit. I have a habit of closing all the apps on my phone and this app doesn’t ever save a draft of what I’m doing. So if I haven’t saved before finishing I lose countless hours of work. This has happened to me multiple times. It would be perfect if after every time a “New Item” was added to the estimate a draft was saved in case the phone dies or a situation like mine arises. I just lost an hr of work because I had to take a call and ended up closing the app.
  • Small businesses beware

    Just use PayPal directly they have all the same features. Joist will randomly charge your PayPal account for hidden fees and what they call an account balance correction. The last one I got that was my final straw, I was told it was because the didn’t charge me enough for credit card processing for 3 months and needed to make the connection. As a small business owner I can not afford nor do I have time for costly mistakes from the company that’s supposed to make running my business easier.
  • No auto save and staff under educated on how it works

    By MyJesuslives
    I loose work when working on a document sometimes. The program freezes I loose the work since there is no auto save. I have sent my concerned numerous times but some staffers are not educated on the program to provide help. Fix these issues and the ap works great otherwise.
  • Disappointing and unprofessional

    By Rmc at GEC
    At first the app was good. After some time we got an email saying they made a mistake on the transaction fee and had to charge us for the all the times they didn’t charge us the correct transaction fee. Which they had actually charged us more then what we had agreed on. So now they want us to pay to hefty bill for a mistake they made on their part. Very disappointing and unprofessional. Make sure you check your transaction fee’s or you’ll end up owing them quite a bit of money in the future.
  • Scam

    If you want to be scammed by an app that you paid thousands and thousands of dollars to in subscription fees and processing fees this is the app for you! Using this app should be the least stressful part of runing your business but turns out to be the opposite. These are money hungry soulless people running this app, I don’t care what other service you’re considering to use but it’s probably better than this one. Looks like jobber earned a new customer 👍
