### "Great onboarding"

February 23, 2022

5.0

I’ve had the best onboarding experience thanks to \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]. She’s always prompt, prepared and there hasn’t been a question she hasn’t been able to answer. File vine is such a great tool that it can be overwhelming in the beginning. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] cuts the learning curve so well that my law partner and I had to acknowledge her. Thanks \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and thanks \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]!

Pros

We love how customizable file vine is. Additionally, you can automate just about anything!

Cons

Every thing is running smoothly as of now. We have not found any cons

### "Excellent features and flexibility for personal injury firms"

July 20, 2017

5.0

Excellent usability for a personal injury firm.

Pros

Flexibility: Filevine offers superior flexibility. Firms can pick what they want and how it's set up. Help with set-up: Filevine assigns a dedicated rep to each firm. The rep will handle set up so the firm doesn't have to. Yay! (I set up our last system myself.) Intuitive, visual structure: Distinct sections for the things that matter to PI firms (settlements, damages, negotiations, intake, etc.). You get to choose which sections you want. Text to clients from the file: Excellent handling of clients texts. SaaS: Unlimited storage, regular updates.

Cons

Email handling: Emails are saved to files via forwarding or a bcc to a Filevine email address. Okay, but not great. Email attachments must be downloaded and saved, then attached. Cost: Filevine is definitely not the least expensive solution (but not the most expensive, either).

### "The Best"

February 27, 2019

5.0

I love this new system we started using. It's much more professional when it's regarding our clients. I love that I can actually now send text messages to our clients. That is something we can't do with our land lines. Thank you filevine for coming available!

Pros

The best part of filevine is that we can update our clients on what is going on with their cases. We can also update our own staff when they are out and needs to know what is going on with each case.

Cons

I honestly don't have anything bad to say about filevine. Since I'm still learning how to use other features we have available

### "Very user-friendly with great tech support"

April 28, 2017

5.0

The convenience of being able to access case information on the go - all of it - notes, documents, contact information, etc. It's easy to maneuver as well so you get your info quickly.

Pros

Easy to learn, can be tailored to suit your needs, and is a one-stop shop for all of the information and pertinent documents for your files. You control what's inputted and it can be as much or as little as you want/need. Support is quick to respond and very helpful. All issues that I have experienced have been quickly resolved.

Cons

The software is still evolving so there are minor issues that pop up - not bugs, just things that could be improved. That said, every issue I've noticed and called to support's attention has been resolved by the team promptly.

### "FV Customer Survey"

May 4, 2021

4.0

I've used 3 different Case Management systems and I like FV the best. Trail works and Case peer are the other.

Pros

I like the speed of which I can work once it was mostly set up.

Cons

Lack of guidance on how to use. Glitches sometimes as well. Always having to refresh the page.

Reason for choosing Filevine

Firm Decision, Not mine. They still use Trial works over FV bc of issues learning the software.

### "Amazing case management software program."

January 5, 2018

5.0

Case Management organization and shared case information. The link between clients, we now know what clients are associated with a case and we can switch from client to client in a click of a button.

Pros

I was hired as the office manager for a small law firm. As of today, we are still in the beginning process as we have only had this program for about three months. There is so much to say about Filevine, it is an amazing case management software program. I especially loved that we were able to set up a template for our firms needs and desires. Everyone here has adapted very well as it is very easy to navigate and learn. If you need help organizing your case files this is the program. Reports are great as you customize the reports you want as you need them. Most importantly, always great and customer service support.

Cons

The biggest issue we have is that when we are in the case information section you must hit the save button or you can potentially lose everything you entered, it does not do an auto save, not even when you up-load documents.

### "Made for the personal injury law firm - unlike any other case management system!"

April 27, 2018

5.0

Pros

These guys get it. This is a 100% web-based software that is perfect for PI attorneys. There are so many options out there for case management, but FileVine takes it to the next level. So many features currently and updates are always coming through for new things. PS - the T-Shirts are nice too, very soft!

Cons

I wish there was something similar for attorneys that practice other areas of law. Hopefully, this is in the works.

### "Filevine is GREAT. "

March 14, 2017

5.0

The law firm I work for signed up for Filevine about 6 months ago. One thing I love about Filevine is that there are constant efforts to improve the software. Each firm can customize their case set up to their specific needs. It helps with client contact the texting feature is so easy to use and our clients love it! We can track all aspects of a case and have the information readily available. Customer service is also amazing! Whenever we want to make adjustments or submit a new doc gen it is done within 24 hours. Filevine has really changed the way we manage our cases for the better.

Pros

Easy to use. Client friendly. Information is readily available.

Cons

Multiple tasks. I feel overwhelmed sometimes looking at the tasks that need to be completed. Even though they are usually duplicates.

### "Fantastic Cloud Based System"

April 5, 2021

5.0

My firm uses Filevine for all of our clients' files. It is easy to chart activities and collaborate with my co-workers. I love it!

Pros

I love the fact that I can work on Filevine from literally anywhere in the world! When COVID-19 struck and we all had to work remotely for several months, this was a lifesaver! Once it it safe to travel again, I plan to t ravel internationally and work remotely from everywhere along my travels!

Cons

No complaints of any kind. I think that Filevine is fantastic.

### "The Best Software Out There!"

April 5, 2021

5.0

Spectacular. Couldn't really be happier.

Pros

Ease of use once its setup. It doesn't everything that other software can't do. I am in the process of automating (docgen and fusion) my documents to make my life easier, which will be great once I'm done.

Cons

A collection section within a static section would be great. Accounting for flat fee and contingency based billing would be great.

Reason for choosing Filevine

Customizability. I built this the exact way I wanted it. It was hard and took a long time to build but well worth the time I spent making it.

Switched from

[Abacus Private Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/183454/Abacus-Private-Cloud/)

Abacus charged too much and did provide results like FV does.

### "Best Case Management Software for Law Firms"

March 14, 2017

5.0

I've been using FileVine for over a year and I couldn't be happier. I've used a bunch of other software, including Abacus and Clio, and they don't come close to FileVine. The best part about FileVine is how customizable it is. The staff is also super friendly and responsive. Highly recommend trying it out.

Pros

Customizable. Web-based. Friendly and responsive staff.

Cons

Because they are so customizable, once in a while you'll have a bug that needs to be fixed, but it's never been anything big. Minor issues like duplicate contacts, but they are quick to fix.

March 17, 2021

5.0

It has been great so far. Very user friendly.

Pros

This product is very easy to use. I think my favorite part is we are able to customize the program to our needs - so anytime we may feel something is missing all we have to do is add it in!

Cons

I made an error by entering some info into the wrong project - I was unable to delete it. But I was able to "move" it to the correct place so that was a cool alternatice

Reason for choosing Filevine

N/A my company is who chose the new program.

### "Legal Cakewalk"

February 25, 2021

5.0

Pros

I started with my firm as Filevine was being implemented, and hadn't used other filing systems previously. That said, if you've used social media programs like Instagram or Pinterest, Filevine feels very intuitive. Halfway through the training day everyone in the office was building files and making headway.

Cons

I have to be conscious to refresh my pages, but if that's the most I can think to nitpick about, that says something.

Overall I am very happy with Filevine, it is very easy to use and everything is pretty self-explanatory it does not require much additional training once it is built to your liking. The Filevine team is always available to answer questions or solve issues.

Pros

Very easy to use, eliminates the use for other apps and products because you have everything you need in one place.

Cons

Reports are not as easy to use, it requires a lot of steps that can get very confusing.
