Our verdict on Ignition
Ignition is a web-based proposal and billing platform for accounting firms, agencies, consultants, and other professional services businesses. It brings branded proposals, contracts, engagement letters, electronic signatures, invoicing, payment collection, sales pipeline management, reporting, and workflow automation into one system. It is particularly suited to firms that want client agreements and financial follow-through connected to the same process, rather than treating proposal creation as a standalone task.
Pricing is structured as flat monthly plans. Solo costs $39 per month, Core costs $99 per month, Pro costs $229 per month, and Pro+ costs $399 per month. Solo is designed for solopreneurs, while Core adds client agreements, billing, and payment collection. Pro adds more customization and automated workflows, and Pro+ focuses on advanced scalability and flexibility. A 14-day free trial is available, but there is no free plan. The published plans give buyers a clear progression from basic proposal and payment workflows to broader automation and customization.
Its strongest differentiator is the connection between proposal acceptance and revenue operations. Clients can review and sign proposals, provide payment details, and move into automated invoicing and collections. Proposal options, packages, add-ons, discounts, deposits, bulk sending, and renewals support repeatable services. Integrations include accounting and practice platforms such as Xero, QuickBooks, MYOB Business, Karbon, Sage Business Cloud Accounting, Practice CS, and CCH Axcess, plus Zapier and HubSpot through Zapier. Choose Ignition if proposals, billing, payment collection, and accounting integrations belong in one workflow. Firms seeking a free tool or a non-web platform should look elsewhere.
