For years, ConnectWise users have faced an unfortunate tradeoff when it came to invoicing.

You could use standard invoice templates and enjoy fast performance—but with little to no branding or flexibility. Or you could rely on the aging iZenda-based Report Writer to create custom layouts, accepting slower generation speeds, complex maintenance, and the limitations that come with software originally designed nearly two decades ago.

NexNow Hosted Invoices eliminate that compromise.

Our hosted platform delivers invoice generation speeds approaching stock templates while providing virtually unlimited customization—without relying on Report Writer.

Why Choose NexNow Hosted Invoices?

Blazing-Fast Performance

NexNow Hosted Invoices leverage advanced server-side caching technology to dramatically improve invoice performance.

• Invoice PDFs can open almost instantly once they have been generated.

• PDFs may be pre-cached in the background for even faster access.

• Documents are regenerated only when underlying billing data changes.

• Fresh PDF generation is typically 3–10 times faster than ConnectWise Report Writer.

The result? Faster invoice delivery and a better experience for both your team and your clients.

Unlimited Design Flexibility

Break free from the limitations of traditional invoice templates.

Because our platform isn’t constrained by Report Writer, we can leverage:

• JavaScript

• Python

• External APIs

• Advanced formatting logic

• Charts and visual reporting

• Custom calculations and metrics

Whether you need branded invoices, usage summaries, charts, or integrations with external systems, NexNow Hosted Invoices can be tailored to your exact requirements.

Built-In Advanced Invoice Options

Many advanced features are available out of the box, including:

• Custom agreement grouping styles

• Flexible invoice display variations

• Outstanding balance reports automatically attached to invoices

These options provide more useful information for customers while reducing the need for manual reporting.

Dedicated n8n Automation Engine

Every NexNow Hosted Invoicing customer receives a dedicated n8n automation instance.

This enables NexNow to help you build additional:

• Reports

• Workflows

• Notifications

• Integrations

• Data synchronization processes

By leveraging data and actions available within ConnectWise and the rest of your IT stack, your invoicing environment becomes a powerful automation platform—not just a PDF generator.

Fast Batch Invoicing

Need to process large billing runs?

NexNow Hosted Invoices are designed to handle bulk operations with ease.

• Email 100+ invoices at a time

• Avoid system slowdowns

• Eliminate crashes and timeouts

• Improve month-end billing efficiency

No ConnectWise Account Required

Unlike Report Writer, NexNow does not require maintaining a ConnectWise account for template creation or updates.

This simplifies support and allows us to implement changes quickly without adding additional ConnectWise licensing requirements.

Optional Features

Additional capabilities can be enabled at any time. Some are pre-built, while others can be developed specifically for your business.

Certain features may involve an additional monthly fee.

Invoice Review Portal

Quickly search, view, and audit invoice PDFs outside of ConnectWise through a centralized dashboard.

Benefits include:

• Rapid invoice lookup

• Cached PDF storage

• Single-click PDF combination

• Access to invoices during ConnectWise outages

• Faster customer support and accounting workflows

Invoice Combining

Consolidate multiple invoices into one professional document.

Combine:

• Products and additions

• Time entries

• Expenses

• Agreements

• Other billing components

A dedicated invoice regeneration portal remembers which invoices were merged together, making future updates simple and repeatable.

Invoice Generation History

Most systems only preserve the latest version of an invoice.

With NexNow Hosted Invoices, every generated version can be preserved and referenced.

For example, you can:

• View invoices exactly as they appeared when originally sent

• Compare versions after payments are applied

• Maintain a complete historical audit trail

Generation history can even be stored directly within ConnectWise configurations.

User Delta Reporting

Show meaningful changes to imported user lists directly on invoices.

Examples include:

• Microsoft 365 user synchronization changes

• Added users

• Removed users

• License adjustments

This creates greater transparency for customers and helps explain billing fluctuations.
