Max Schmitt

I used to waste so much time writing invoices and proposals with Word. I always forgot to put in a piece of information or miscalculated some amount. With Cakedesk, all the information is autofilled and calculated correctly every time. I can finally spend more time making money and less time invoicing!

Cakedesk for me has been a huge time saver, it now takes just a few minutes to create a design proposal or invoice. It remembers client’s billing details and calculates VAT for you, plus it’s very easy to use. Cherry on top is its built-in templates – the Industrial one is my go-to 😻

Mirco Grande

Cakedesk is exactly what I was looking for and have not found for so long. A simple, clean and yet very flexible software to create elegant invoices and quotes. It even lets you create your own templates, which I especially like. And the icing on the cake is the absolutely great support I received from Max. Thanks a lot!
