## Reviews

### "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.

### "Basil is Best for the Basics and Bigger" — 5.0/5

> **Annette** | *2 October 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Value for the money, file sharing, client support, and best of all is their customer support. Basil is fairly easy to use, has excellent user interface, and a great way to manage documents with the ability to create file folders as necessary..
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't been able to intuitively figure out all functions; however, it hasn't been a problem because I can telephone support where my call is answered within a minute \~ every time \~ and have my issue resolved within minutes. Basil's customer support is second to none.
> 
> I've only had the software for about 9 months, and it took me 8 months to get my clients loaded, not because of Basil, they were there to help me all the way, but because of my fear of doing something new. I'm glad I finally hopped aboard the Basil train.

### "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.

> 
> Overall, my experience has been very positive and I look forward to seeing what future developments bring to the platform.

> 
> **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.&#10;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.&#10;I would appreciate having access to the remaining budgeted hours on tasks so we can improve planning, oversight, and overall project efficiency.
