    Zero Stars & Zero Free Services… after years of free services! Just one day they decided to be greedy and switch their trusted format from helping small businesses to only helping the pockets of Joist. First it was unlimited invoices for free a month with certain services needing a paid subscription. Then, it went to 5 free invoices a month… then even that was taken away! Now you have to pay for everything! Even locked businesses out of there accounts!!! Unless we pay money to retrieve our data! Crooks! Seriously!?!? Not even a Grandfather plan for people who’ve been here from the beginning, helped spread the word, and help it grow!? Terrible, back stabbing practices. I hope everyone leaves you, since you’re trying to extort us. I’ve been trying to get my data for 3 months and they won’t give it to me.

    Loved this app right up until they no longer allow me access to THOUSANDS of invoices, contracts, quotes, and customer database unless I upgrade to a higher plan. Won’t even let me login to my account without paying more money. I trusted yall with my business for YEARS. What a mistake that was. Then trying to leave this review it kicks me off as soon as I type something negative. so I’m writing this on notes to copy and paste before it kicks me off again. Screw your joist.

    There is not enough customer or IT technicians to assist with issues I have been experiencing login issues for about 2 weeks with no resolution to my login problem. This has impacted my business operations drastically. Anyone at joist please assist, I can post the chat history as supporting information.

    Been using this app for years since it first came out and now we can’t use it without having a paid subscription, not good business practice, and I will be deleting my account and going to a different app

    I have been using this app since 2015. I am sure in my original review I gave this apps a 5 star review. . . not anymore. The original free version had no limits and you got all features, they have slowly taken features away and made them “premium”. This didn’t bother me much as I only need the app for basic invoicing. So now I am deeply rooted in this platform . . .going on 9 years worth of 100’s invoices and they have now through a slow process of taking features away systematically over time made this app pretty much a useless tool unless I pay them a minimum of 13.99 per month or 139.34 per year to get more than 5 documents per month. Yes the developer response will tell me about the wonderful other features that come along with that fee. . .I don’t want or need those features so save the response time Brendan. If 9 years ago I had chosen this app based on having a monthly fee ok, but I used it for 9 years and got totally invested in the platform and now have to pay. . .just to have more than 5 documents per month. . .absolutely ridiculous! Update: The Joist company continues spiraling down the hole! No free version at all and they actually are denying me any access to my previous years invoices unless I pay a fee! If you want to be a sleazy company and take away something that was free for 15 years ok but to charge me to access what is rightfully mine goes to a totally different level of scum. I’m not even sure why this is a legal practice. Apparently greed and desperation has taken this company over. . .give it a few years and quickbooks will gobble this company up. Response to the developers response: I couldn’t care less about the fact that you need to charge people going forward. . .I can CHOOSE not to pay you. . .what you have done that is dishonest and backhanded is DENIED ME ACCESS TO INVOICES THAT ARE MINE! I don’t care if I can never create another invoice with you I want access to MY invoices that were created legally according to your terms!!! A complete money grab that by the looks of the responses you are getting now will definitely backfire on you!

    The free version was great. Forcing me to purchase an upgrade is bad business. They are preventing me from all my invoices, amd receipts.

    I got this free app for several years. Then they kept raising prices. Now I can’t even get my invoices unless I pay for their subscription. Terrible business to do this to people! I switched to Square Invoice it is free and has the same features!
  • We pay now?

    I logged in and found out we need to pay now for a free service we had before or it’s scam?

    When this ap came out originally it was great! Loooved it. Now as the update there are issues with new features. You can loose your document,invoice, contract if an error message appears that will not allow you to save it. Then you need to start from scratch. Online chats for help is useless. And you can only access help business hrs. While your document is about to be deleted due to error messages. No longer a fan at all. If it worked the way it is supposed to it’s a great asset. There are issues they need to address. Ready for a change!
