### "WHMCS Is Manager" — 5.0/5

> **syed** | *28 December 2021* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: WHMCS is very interesting and widely used application for service management. The most unique advantage of this application is when we open the client’s ticket it shows the complete credentials detail of the particular client which is time saving.
> 
> **Cons**: The little advantage of this application is report area if you want to see the complete report of monthly ticket it is very difficult to view and search the particular ticket

### "WHMCS - An automatic choice for Hosters" — 4.0/5

### "WHMCS Review" — 3.0/5

> **Nancy** | *28 December 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's easy to generate invoices and accept payments.  The system tracks all client's support tickets, invoices, and which products they've purchased.  It automatically generates notices of invoices coming due or services about to expire.  It automatically generates invoices for products on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis.
> 
> **Cons**: The "Time \&amp; Task Manager" feature never works the way it's supposed to.  I have to manually deduct hours spent on support tickets and add hours when a client pays for their support agreement.  Also, when setting up a client, or generating an invoice, you have to save twice.  When adding a contact, you also have to save the information once, then click 'activate' and save again.
> 
> It's very useful to have records of every transaction as clients sometimes come back and want to know how much they spent in a prior year.  Generating invoices on it's own is a huge time saver for me.  You can also convert a quote, once approved, into an invoice to save time.  It's also nice to be able to save a draft before you publish and send in case you've made an error on the invoice.

> **Cons**: Well there are a few things i dislike the the license issue i think are a little crazy. sure they have different packages but even if you buy a life time lic you will need to pay them 80 to 100 a year for updates that may or may not come out in the current year. and there are no opt out option for other lil things
> 
> overall it does what it says it will and with out really to many headaches
