Ratings and Reviews
Hands down the best invoicing and estimate app
I’ve been using Joist daily for 4 years. It has made invoices and quotes so simple to produce. I tried many apps before Joist but none can compare to its ease of use and reliability. Thank you for providing such a fantastic tool for my small business. It has saved me hours each week! I have passionately recommended Joist to many other people over the years, and every person who took my suggestion to use Joist is as happy with it as I am! The read receipts and monthly totals are a god send! Thanks again!
Disappointing Turn Of Events
What can I say I have been using this app since the start of 2016 it's been my Go to app. There has always been an option to go pro or elite but have not needed to, As time has gone on and the difficulty's of living expenses have increased, this App in particular witch would be doing completely fine with its Bookimg keeping side and it's 2 other pay options has decided to limit the invoices per month to only 4! With out warning as well so as of today I can no longer do 5 or 6 invoices a month with out upgrading to the $22 dollar a month option meaning each time I send an novice it will be at least $5. This on top of rising rent prices, fuel, living expenses and having kids , google subscriptions iCloud subscriptions and everything else is just a complete kick in the guts. I don't understand how they have limited it and made the free version less useful just for financial gain especially in these times. I mean what is the point of that when your supposed to be one of the best apps for tradesman going around? Unfortunately this has made it impossible for me to get paid from my job unless I find another app or pay the subscription and unfortunately I can't afford $250 a year for an invoice app. Super disappointed, just when you think there is an app that stands out from The rest it just turns out there , in the end no better then any of the rest of them: Back to paper invoices I go.
Developer Response ,
Hey there, we’re honored to have customers like you who have been with us for a long time.
We tried to keep the app completely free as long as we could but as a business owner yourself, I hope you would appreciate that we put in a lot of development work and resources into the app.
Joist Pro is more than just unlimited documents, you also get all the new Pro features we’ve added over the years that thousands of contractors rely on. If you like what Joist Basics has given you and are finding you need more, we’d be thrilled to see you give Joist Pro a try.
Easiest invoicing app! & great customer service!
I have used Joist for a couple of years now. It’s very easy on the app as well as the PC. I don’t have the premium version and the base version gives me everything I need. Contacts can be saved, invoicing items can be saved - meaning if you do the same type of invoices regularly it’s a breeze. I recently had a query and the customer service team have delivered amazing service and prompt response & fixes. Keep up the good work Joist!
Developer Response ,
Thank you so much for the kind words -- reviews like this mean a lot to everyone here at Joist! Hope you'll continue to enjoy using the app for many more years to come!
