I've uploaded a number of documents that we frequently download and use, including Client Service Agreements, Credit Counseling Instructions, Suggestions of Bankruptcy etc. We tried Cincompass about a year ago and hated it. We were with BestCase for over 10 years but were frustrated that there was no cloud solution for them. Then about 2 or so years ago BestCase announced they had a "cloud solution" which was really a Citrix virtual workstation. While Citrix "worked" it just added a whole layer of confusion and required training for my team; plus it did not have 100% uptime. Plus, it was very expensive, starting per month and almost per month as I added users. This was on top of the BestCase maintenance agreement, which also grew over the years. So NextChapter has been a great improvement for our firm. > > **Cons**: The software has a few growing pains (when compared with BestCase), and you do need to adjust your workflow a bit, but not too much. That's why I give 4 instead of 5 stars for Features \& Functionality, but I expect it will continue to grow and improve. > > Freed me from Windows software and all of the compromises that involves. Gives us the chance to be a 100% Macintosh office after many years of hybrid solutions. ----- ### "Excellent option for web based bankruptcy preparation software" — 5.0/5 > **Vincent** | *August 30, 2022* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: NextChapter divides an excellent integration with our practice management software Clio and provides online access for the software to be used anywhere an Internet connection is available. > > **Cons**: We transitioned from best case to next chapter. Best case has a nice feature for analyzing the monthly decrease a client would need in gross income to qualify for the means test. The analysis breaks it out over one month, two months, three months, four months, five months, or six months. While certainly not a dealbreaker, it would be a nice feature to have. ----- ### "Easy to use" — 3.0/5 > **Sarah** | *August 13, 2019* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: NextChapter was really easy to get started with and the data entry is simple to use. The texting feature has been a real help with keeping in contact with clients as well. When we've had problems, customer service was quick to help resolve our issues. > > **Cons**: The biggest issue that we've had is the amount of time that it's taken get a case filed, but NextChapter has worked towards fixing that and made it easier. > > While there have been bumps in switching software, overall it's been a smooth transition. ----- ### "NextChapter is Great" — 5.0/5 > **Tami** | *January 14, 2020* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the ease of entering information into the software. > > **Cons**: I dislike the treatment of a leased vehicle and the inability to put a monthly vehicle payment into Schedule J without having a vehicle on Schedule B. > > Every time I call into NextChapter my question is answered quickly and the issue resolved. I have had an awesome experience with NextChapter. ----- ### "NextChapter has improved my bankruptcy practice." — 5.0/5 > **David** | *April 22, 2020* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software is very easy to learn and use. My paralegal and I love the flow of the interface which make data entry smooth and easy. The customer service and tech support are super fast, friendly, and helpful. > > **Cons**: I have nothing bad to say about NextChapter. > > As a career BestCase user I was reluctant to switch, but after using NextChapter I wish I had switched sooner. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/120187/nextchapter?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/120187/nextchapter) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
