Paro is not to be trusted. Even though their bookkeeper got caught up in a scam and lost my company thousand of dollars, Paro did nothing to make it right, nothing . Stay clear of them.. find a reputable company.

Paro works with me to find the best clients. They take the headache away of having to manage marketing and billing. It's a perfect collaboration. I can focus on what I do best while knowing I have a team of people to support me.

I had them for bookkeeping services. After communications with the first bookkeeper failed because she would always be on vacation and not get me the monthly reports (with an excuse every time) that were why I had their service. I was going to cancel at the end of the year. I got a new bookkeeper and gave him a try. He made me miss my corporate March 15 deadline to file my taxes. His story was my emails must have been hacked since he did not get my emails asking when he would be providing the corrected reports. I canceled in March via email and a phone call. They just charged me again for April. No response from them at all. The worse service. Even my CPA thought they were the worse. I guess you get what you pay for.

I’ve spent enough time on Paro at this point to really understand how the platform works, and overall I’ve had a positive experience. What I’ve come to appreciate is that Paro is not just a basic marketplace. It works best when you understand how to show up well, how to position your experience, and how to build trust over time. Once you get that, there can be real value in the platform. I’ve found that it can lead to strong client connections and interesting work, especially for people who have clear expertise and know how to communicate it well. It’s not totally passive, and I think that’s important to understand going in. The people who get the most out of it are the ones who are thoughtful, responsive, and professional in how they engage. Overall, I think Paro is a credible platform with real potential, especially for experienced independent consultants. The more I’ve worked within it, the more I’ve understood where it can be effective.

They help find my first clients, so I could make an income and leave my full time job. The communication is extremely responsive and helpful, support is always available. Highly recommend partnering with them.

Complete ripoff. They had someone as my "bookkeeper" who overcharged me for amended previous unneeded returns, then left the company. They then put me with another CPA, who charged me for me 2024 returns, never sent them to me, and then when I reported him to Paro, they fired him without ever getting my returns sent to me. I am out thousands of dollars, and extremely frustrated. No one answers their phone line, and the email responses I received simply told me it wasn't their problem. I reached out to the fired CPA and they said Paro didn't allow them to keep records, and that Paro should have the return. Paro said they didnt keep records, and that the CPA should have the return. I couldn't recommend them less. Extremely terrible company to work with. Do not use their services!

I’ve had a positive experience working with Paro as a consultant. The platform has provided access to interesting client opportunities and has helped connect me with businesses that are looking for real financial expertise. The process has generally been smooth, and I appreciate having a channel that can introduce consultants to clients they may not have reached on their own. One thing I value is the flexibility. As a consultant, it’s helpful to be able to work on projects that align with my background and availability. I’ve also found that the clients coming through the platform often have genuine needs for strategic finance and accounting support, which makes the work meaningful. Like any platform, there can be some challenges along the way, but overall my experience has been good. Paro has been a useful resource for building consulting relationships and expanding my reach as a finance professional. I would recommend Paro to other consultants who are looking for new client opportunities and a professional platform to support independent consulting work.
