Verdict
CARET Legal, the platform formerly called Zola Suite, suits midsize firms that want billing, native accounting, and a built-in email client so matter communication and billing live together.
What customers praise
Native accounting and an in-app email client keep matter work, billing, and correspondence in one system for firms that dislike stitching tools together.
What customers criticise
The feature breadth raises the learning curve, and the rebrand history has caused some documentation and naming confusion.
Best for
Midsize firms that want billing, built-in accounting, and email management in one platform, formerly known as Zola Suite.
