Bonsai is designed for freelance contracts invoicing and client management. Contracts, proposals and invoices are organized around client work rather than separate accounting tasks. Companies with complicated general-ledger requirements may need dedicated accounting software. This assessment focuses on the workflow fit rather than claiming a hands-on customer experience.
