Matters.Cloud review
A low-cost core system for small firms managing matters, time, billing, and trust accounts.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Matters.Cloud is a cloud-based legal practice management platform from Cintelli Limited for legal professionals and law firms. Its core scope covers client relationship management, matter and case management, opportunity tracking, calendaring, tasks, time and expense recording, legal billing, invoice creation, payment capture, and trust or client account transactions. Small firms seeking a central system for day-to-day practice administration should find its feature mix relevant, particularly when mobile access and document connections matter.
Pricing is straightforward across two paid plans. Standard costs $40 per user per month with monthly billing and includes client relationship management, time and expense, legal billing, case management, opportunity tracking, calendaring, and tasks. Advanced costs $65 per user per month and adds automated contacts, document automation, multiple entities, and a developer API. The published pricing shows a 30-day free trial rather than a free plan. Firms should therefore choose Advanced when Word merge-field automation, multiple entities, or API connectivity are required; otherwise, Standard covers the main operational functions at the lower price.
Its ecosystem fit is a practical strength. Matters.Cloud connects with OneDrive, NetDocuments, DocMoto, Dropbox, Google Drive, Office 365, Google Workspace, Xero, Sage, FreeAgent, SzamLazz, and Mailchimp. The product supports web, iOS, and Android, with mobile time entry and invoice access. That combination suits firms that need billing and matter information beyond the office, while document management integrations can connect matter folders with existing storage services. Firms prioritizing client intake and portal capabilities should compare alternatives, as those workflows are not highlighted in the product description. Matters.Cloud is a sensible fit for small practices focused on core management rather than a broader client-facing platform.
