Review Summary	Wave Apps receives overwhelmingly negative reviews, particularly regarding its customer service and payment processing. Users complain of difficulties accessing funds, unreliable bank connections, and a lack of responsiveness from support. The free accounting software is lauded for its simplicity and basic functionality, but many users find the platform lacking in advanced features and have ultimately switched to paid software like QuickBooks.
