Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Tabs3 is legal practice management software for law firms that need billing, accounting, and matter operations in one product family. It covers matter and case management, billable time, invoicing, electronic payments, trust accounting, document management, calendaring, conflict checking, client intake, reporting, and a client billing portal. Its tools are aimed at solo and midsize legal practices, with a particularly strong fit for established firms that depend on accounting-heavy workflows.
Pricing is divided between cloud and on-premises subscriptions. Tabs3 Cloud Subscription costs $89 per user per month and includes billing and time tracking, financials and trust accounting, Tabs3Pay electronic payments, and Tabs3 Connect web access. OnSite Subscription costs $69 per user per month and includes on-premises deployment, billing and time tracking, financials and trust accounting, and Tabs3 Connect access. PracticeMaster adds matter management, document management and automation, calendaring, and conflict checking for $32 per user per month. Tabs3 CRM costs $147 per month with annual billing and adds customizable intake forms, automated texts and emails, and PracticeMaster integration.
The product’s breadth is its main appeal, especially for firms that want legal billing, financial controls, documents, intake, and client payments connected across Tabs3 products. Integrations include Microsoft Outlook, Adobe, NetDocuments, Worldox, iManage, HotDocs, WordPerfect, LexShare, CalendarRules, and dtSearch. Tabs3 Connect provides browser-based access, while the product does not offer official native iOS or Android apps. Firms seeking a broad practice and accounting system may find the structure suitable; firms prioritizing a lower-cost all-in-one subscription, native mobile apps, or fewer add-on decisions should consider alternatives.
