We use the mobile function instead of desktop frequently as the layout is great. > > **Cons**: Sometimes it is a bit slow to load documents, but once loaded there are many capabilities. > > Great experience thus far from myself and the team with this app. Would recommend if you are doing large project work with multiple fee earners. ----- ### "Caret Delivers on Simplicity and Functionality" — 5.0/5 > **Jesus** | *9 December 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Integrating with Microsoft enables seamless communication, saving us time by eliminating the need to switch between different software. > > **Cons**: There’s not much we dislike because it works well for our needs, though some advanced features could be more intuitive. > > Our overall experience with Caret has been very positive. It’s reliable, easy to use, and meets our needs effectively, helping us stay organized and efficient. ----- ### "A legal platform that seems to be growing, but also have growing pains" — 3.0/5 > **Natalya** | *3 December 2025* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: They always seem to be adding innovative new updates and features - although sometimes they don't have the best onboarding or have to iron out a few kinks, they're really trying to keep up with the quickly developing world of legal software. Our account manager is also amazing, and has been an advocate for us whenever we have encountered any issues. > > **Cons**: They have an outsourced technical support team with which I've constantly encountered communication issues with. They switched to outsourced tech help happened several years ago - back then, customer service was quite helpful, and now, a simple issue can have multiple tickets, threads, and just general messy communication that seems to drag out and prolong issues. > > Overall we have had a good enough experience with Caret, and it's fulfilled our purpose as a small law firm (9 attorneys). ----- ### "RUN, don't walk away from CARET\!" — 1.0/5 > **PHILLIP** | *20 February 2026* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It has a decent database and calendaring system. That is all I can recommend about CARET. There is nothing else positive to say. > > **Cons**: Everything else is TERRIBLE\! The billing (Accounting) program is almost worthless. It has so many bugs you have to work around that it makes running statements a nightmare every month. When you call tech support about a problem, you get a five step process to "force" the program to perform a task it claims it does automatically. Tech support tells you they don't correct problems until enough people complain. And for all of this, you get a 15% increase every year at renewal time. > > Would NOT recommend using CARET, especially the accounting program. The software is buggy and the company couldn't care less about improving the product. ----- ### "Great web-based legal software solution." — 4.0/5 > **BRITTON** | *28 October 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that it is a web-based system that lets you access it wherever you are. We have many remote employees and knowing they can access in the office or on the road makes it very convenient. > > **Cons**: There are still some bugs that are being worked out, but they encourage feedback and are responsive. Setting some items up can be time consuming but once set up it is a pretty smooth experience. > > Overall, it has been a great addition to our law firm, and we will continue to grow with it. So far it has been able to handle everything we have put into it. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/144573/CARET-Legal?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/144573/CARET-Legal) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
