First contact person did not know the difference between a CPA review and a tax return review, if you are an accounting professional stay away, something that simple is a red flag on the whole organization,

Paro are scammers!!! Do not waste your time. They are liars and did not want to pay their freelancers. Clients get scammed and so do freelancers. I billed about $2,700 worth and ended up getting paid nothing. They said I did not complete the scope of work and they had proof. I requested the proof and they answered back. I sent emails after emails. I tried to set up meeting but they were declined my meeting. I BEEN WAITING TO HEAR ABOUT MY PAY SINCE MAY!!! DO NOT USE PARO!!!

Being a bookkeeper I was with them for a few months. Lost clients because of over charging by them and after I got in contact with them about a client who wanted more than the scope of work I was told my account was permanently removed so I lost clients and work. You can’t get a hold of anyone. I tried to appeal but nothing happened.

Paro wasted our time and resources and were of no assistance. The business they recommended was unable to deliver results and failed to hold their end of the agreement which led to a refund. Stay clear of Paro and the companies they work with. Buyer beware.

Really bad and rude customer service in the first interaction with this company. I had set up a demo with them trying to learn more about what they offer that could be of help to my business. The rep from Paro running the demo hung up on us randomly and did not follow up with the promised items. Not proper and absolutely not professional at all.

I signed up for help with accounting for my small business. After seeing the invoices for a few months that were very large for tiny amounts of work, I decided to cancel. I continued to be charged for two additional months after canceling. There is no way for me to prevent them from pulling funds from my bank account or to delete my account. Terrible customer service and an overprices product. Just call a local accountant rather than use this.

My experience on Paro was horrible!!First person they sent me would never answer the phone and completed work a day or three late all the time.The second person they sent me tried to steal $700 for three invoices!!!They lie and will bill you for more money.It’s a bait and switch.Do not use this service it’s a scam!!!!!

Paro does not care about you, they only care about the money they can extract from you. They hire bookkeepers as ICs and charge you double their rate (double market rate), for the assurance that they manage the bookkeepers and quality control which was a TOTAL LIE!! They do none of the management they say they do. They just schedule calls so nothing is recorded, tell you what you want to hear, promise to pay or waive fees they never waive and their way of managing the issues is ultimately just to give you another bookkeeper. They still charge you for all the hours the bookkeepers reported, regardless of whether the hours were worked or not or if the work was done properly. Also their manipulative remedy for fixing the work done improperly is by hiring another bookkeeper at double the rate, telling you you’re getting a discount by calling them a CFO. After two years, $20,000 paid and 3 bookkkeeprs later, I STILL never got my books cleaned up, my taxes filed or any of the mistakes that were made fixed. I also incurred thousands of dollars in fines and penalties for bills missed and incompleted work. I complained to all the possible authorities out there about their services. Now I am trying to warn consumers. Be warned of these scammers and poor extractive unethical practices. They act like they care about you and that they want to support small businesses, women, etc but it is all not true. Everytime something went wrong, they just tried to extract more and more money from me in even shorter and shorter periods of time! EVERY SINGLE bookkeeper they sent to me told me how horrible their practices were — they all tried to broker a deal with me outside of their contract. I feel lucky despite how much I’ve been scammed by Paro, that I have bookkeeping experience and so was able to track mistakes, fix them and catch all of the way the bookkeeper were not doing their job. I can’t imagine how many others are being scammed right now.
