What Dubsado is good at
We would rather you picked the right tool than picked ours. Here is the honest case for theirs.
Where Dubsado wins
- Forms, questionnaires and workflows can be customised further than anything else here.
- Three users are included on every plan, which is more generous than most.
- No cap on the number of clients or projects.
- A 21-day trial with full access rather than a stripped-back version.

- You have the time, or the budget for a specialist, to configure it properly.
- You keep your books elsewhere and have no plans to change that.
Choose Internoodle if…
- You want to be running this week rather than after a 20-hour build.
- You do not want to pay a specialist four figures before the software does anything.
- You want the accounting and the client work in the same place.
- You are Canadian and want GST/HST and Canadian hosting handled for you.
