I had client hub, and I was paying $99 for it. It was a decent program, except I could not afford it, being a startup business myself. When Basil came around and offered the same thing, I jumped on the chance. > > **Cons**: Some of my clients are not tech-savvy and haven't really been able to catch on to the platform. Some of the things that they had a problem with, I didn't know how to fix myself. That was kind of hard, trying to explain to them how to use the platform that I was pushing. > > I am thankful for Basil coming around and offering me a cost-effective way to handle multiple clients, obtain documents, send out documents, and be able to assign tasks to clients for an affordable rate that even a startup company such as myself can afford ----- ### "Great Job BASIL \!\!\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *8 May 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The amazing team that works diligently every day and truly listens to ensure all of your needs are met with care and precision. An amazing team that works diligently, pays close attention, and takes the time to listen so that all of your needs are fully understood and met. A dedicated and amazing team that works diligently while actively listening to ensure your needs are clearly understood and properly taken care of. > > **Cons**: I would like to have visibility into the remaining budgeted hours on each task so we can better track progress and manage resources effectively. It would be helpful to see the remaining budgeted hours allocated to each task in order to monitor usage and ensure we stay within planned limits. I would appreciate having access to the remaining budgeted hours on tasks so we can improve planning, oversight, and overall project efficiency. > > Basil has done an amazing job growing with my business and has continued to impress me with their upgrades and technical advancements. ----- ### "Love to see what great things Basil does in the future." — 3.0/5 > **James** | *29 April 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Customer Service is amazing\! From the sales team, tech, and client support. I have never felt brushed off. We usually get a same day turn around. Also, we get details on the why, if something can not be addressed. I am not sure if it is coincidence or cultural......nevertheless it is impressive. > > **Cons**: As a young company, I see that there are lots of kinks to work out. The product updates often. There are multiple items that we had to ask for them to be created and not already available. Moreover, we almost have to train the team to what we want instead of having items and/or options provided. > > I am really excited to see what Basil has in store in the future. They do have some ways to go in regards to customizing for clients. We have asked them to complete at least 15 task, but they have actively tried to do it all. ----- ### "Basil - Your Pretty Cool\!" — 5.0/5 > **Julie** | *15 December 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how easy Basil is to use and that it gives me a secure platform in which I can store and share confidential information with my clients. And the support team at Basil is always friendly and helpful. > > **Cons**: I don't use all the great features Basil has to offer and when I do look into using more features, I would like to be able go directly to Basil and lookup "how to" videos on different features. > > My experience with Basil has been nothing but great and my clients really appreciate the ease of sharing information with me through Basil. ----- ### "Highly recommended" — 5.0/5 > **Judy** | *12 May 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Client support is outstanding. They have always responded quickly by chat or video conferencing. While some clients find the user interface challenging, most find it easy to use to upload files and to retrieve completed returns. My favorite feature is the chat where corresponding with clients is safe and secure. > > **Cons**: Improvements to file management of individual completed documents needs to happen. Currently there is no way a document can be marked as entered or completed. > > I would highly recommend Basil to new preparers. The learning curve is low and the help is always there. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1049691/basil?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1049691/basil) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
