## Reviews

### "Mostly Good" — 4.0/5

> **Mike** | *23 November 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Actionstep is a blank slate that provides plenty of customisation when setting up a law practice, including templates and trust accounting.
> 
> **Cons**: The  interface with Outlook is slightly clunky, which is a big con given how much email is used in today's day and age.
> 
> It's been a good program for getting my legal practice up and running. As it has grown, I feel like their help department hasn't.

### "Mostly good with some things which can be improved." — 4.0/5

> **Himanshu Jasvantray** | *13 November 2024* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to use and very helpful as it can be accessed from anywhere as such where internet connection is available.
> 
> **Cons**: 1. Now, they do not have single use licence anymore (a very big downside for persons like me who are planning to have a single user licence).&#10;2. The creation of templates process can be easier and user-friendly.&#10;3. The law-firms have Individuals and Companies as clients and also Family Trusts, Partnership Firms etc. and there are only two options - for individuals and for companies. which is limiting. Many things can be improved proactively.
> 
> I have been a computer user since around 1986/87 and I find that I can work with Actionstep quite well overall, with a rider that every such system can be improved and have downsides.

-----

### "Very Detailed and Customizable CRM" — 4.0/5

> **Holly** | *17 April 2025* | Accounting Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: In depth features and options. I like the workflows option
> 
> **Cons**: Quite intensive user set up is needed in order to maximize the potential
> 
> I am a new user but so far I have used it to mange my client base and it is more than what I need.

### "Buyer beware" — 4.0/5

> **Rebecca** | *26 June 2024* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked the systems capabilities. The concepts are perfect and functionality outstanding, IF YOU HAVE AN IT DEGREE AND 1000hrs to set it up.
> 
> **Cons**: VERY POOR SUPPORT.&#10;Their Business model -- purchase the product, they give you 15 hrs free education, then once that is used up you get charged exorbitant fees or referred to their affiliates, one that I was referred to had no idea and the templates were multi coloured font colours, then referred to another who was an "owner" of Actionstep... once I identified their business model ... signing everyone up, limited contact support, and the assistance you get is so generic, that eventually forces you to sign up to the outsiders that are actually insiders. DEPLORABLE ethics and business model in my mind. &#10;POOR XERO AND ACTIONSTEP integration SUPPORT and SYSTEM FLOWS WERE NEVER EXPLAINED
> 
> POOR.&#10;I actually liked the system the Support and costs have sent me actively searching the replacement.

-----

### "Actionstep review" — 3.0/5

> **charmaine** | *7 May 2024* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to navigate once you know what it can do and it is inexpensive to purchase and maintain, especially if you have a small firm.
> 
> **Cons**: The billing module could be easier and a live visit from technician would have bee wonderful at the start instead of having to learn everything online which took forever.
> 
> I was frustrated at the start but online help was reasonable but not as good as live Technical Trainers
