Legal Ops Tools Can’t Replace a True Law Firm Platform
Filevine Is for Projects. Centerbase Is for Profits.
Filevine works well for managing litigation workflows — but when it comes to firm-wide visibility, profitability, billing, and accounting? It falls short. Centerbase gives midsize firms everything they need to manage the business of law, not just the case.

Centerbase seamlessly integrates with the apps you use every day
“The email bill function is amazing. I figured out how to format the subject line and body of the email and our clients love it. This used to take us multiple days, and now it takes 10 minutes.”
“We wanted to customize things. And we were limited in doing that in Abacus. So that was a huge asset that Centerbase had. That was one of the big-ticket items that swayed us to choose Centerbase .”
“Centerbase is user friendly, and it’s easy to navigate. The email bill function is easy, and we can always go back to check all the details in their separate matters.”
"We email our invoices out directly from Centerbase and it has cut days off of the time getting our invoices to our clients."
