What the pricing really means
TimeSolv publishes their pricing upfront, which is a good sign. Centerbase requires you to contact sales for a quote. When a company hides pricing, it usually means the cost is high enough that they want a salesperson to justify it before you see the number. Always ask for total year-one cost, not just the monthly subscription.
Where Centerbase wins
- Financial reporting and profitability analysis is deeper than most competitors, with partner compensation tracking
- LEDES billing built in with proper compliance for corporate and insurance clients
- Multi-office and multi-entity support for firms with multiple locations
- Custom pricing means you negotiate based on firm size, which can work in your favor
Where TimeSolv wins
- $24/user for billing with LEDES support and trust accounting is the cheapest in the category
- 30-day free trial is the longest available among legal billing tools
- LEDES billing compliance included even on the cheapest plan
- Also works for non-legal professionals, which is useful for mixed practices
Where Centerbase falls short
- No public pricing — you have to go through sales, and mid-market typically means $100-200/user/month
- G2 rating of 4.0 suggests the user experience has room for improvement
- Fewer reviews (80 total) than major competitors means less community knowledge base
- Probably overkill for firms under 10 attorneys
Where TimeSolv falls short
- No document automation on either plan
- Case management is very basic compared to dedicated PM tools
- No email integration
- Limited to billing and time tracking on the Pro plan — it's not a full practice management system
