I’ve settled with FreshBooks for now. UI is a bit clunnky but it gets the job done.<p><a href="http://www.freshbooks.com/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.freshbooks.com&#x2F;</a>

I was using Curdbee. They have been acquired by another company called Hiveage, and we had to migrate our accounts there. So that&#x27;s what I am using right now.<p>I just needed a simple invoicing app which generates and sends clean invoices, so their free plans work perfectly for me.<p>Links: <a href="http://www.curdbee.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.curdbee.com</a> <a href="http://www.hiveage.com/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.hiveage.com&#x2F;</a>

Currently using <a href="http://www.freshbooks.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.freshbooks.com</a><p>Definitely not the best in terms of user experience but it has enough features I didn&#x27;t know I need, that it keeps me happy.<p>Things like multiple auto-reminders for late payments and reoccurring invoices saved me alot of time. I didn&#x27;t need them when I was looking around at invoicing software but now I do.

I&#x27;ve been using Freckle: <a href="http://letsfreckle.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;letsfreckle.com</a> , which is promoted primarily as a time tracking tool, but has good invoicing built in as well.

I used to use freshbooks, it&#x27;s great. But Freeagent does so much more: <a href="http://fre.ag/43i723zz" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;fre.ag&#x2F;43i723zz</a>

Solar Accounts - UK specific, suitable for both sole traders and Ltds, with or without VAT registration. Does invoicing and accounting in one nice package.<p><a href="http://www.solaraccounts.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.solaraccounts.co.uk&#x2F;</a><p>I didn&#x27;t want to entrust my accounting to some web SaaS thing.

<a href="http://invoiceto.me/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;invoiceto.me&#x2F;</a> is what I use for sending out monthly invoices. The site is simple, and I keep good records. The only thing I need externally is a pretty PDF to mail to clients, and that site gives me that.

I was using invoicemachine.com but their API just wasn&#x27;t cutting it for me so I switched to FreshBooks. The FreshBooks API is great: in a matter of minutes I was able to pull my hours from Harvest and generate a FreshBooks invoice. That&#x27;s all I need

Curious to know the answer to this as well. I usually just use a template on Excel or Word.

I&#x27;ve been using Harvest: <a href="http://www.getharvest.com/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.getharvest.com&#x2F;</a> Works fine for me, though I don&#x27;t do a lot of freelance work, so I&#x27;m not a heavy user.
