Pros
Pro Works with small and large teams
Ballpark has been created to work well no matter the team size one has. Could be a single user or a team of hundreds, Ballpark scales appropriately.
Pro Well designed invoices
While maybe not the most crucial part of a bill, Ballpark does provide very well designed invoices.
Pro Free version
Free for up to 10 users.
Pro Simple userinterface with advanced functions
Pro Helpful support
Pro has every function you need and more, incredibly easy setup guide when you create the system
Even with the app missing, this the most userfriendly system I have tried so far. When creating the system, you follow a very simple guide, that walks you through all the system's modules and functions, and allows you to customize it all to fit your needs. Also, you can easily get the app icon on your phone, that opens up the system in your browser when you click it. It works just as good as an actual app in my opinion.
Cons
Con Dashboard is too static and not that useful for a small team or single users
There is no way to customize the dashboard, on top of this the info provided is all but useless on small teams or with single users. Basically it should allow the user to customize to their experience, but sadly does not do so.
Con no app, still easy to use from the phone though.
The app missing is not a huge problem for me at all. They have a guide for both Android and Apple on how to get the icon on your phone's homepage, which works just as fine. The only difference is that the system opens up in your mobile browser instead. It almost looks like an app.
