### "Efficient and Easy to Use"

May 21, 2020

5.0

Overall, I like this product and have stayed with it even when other companies have offered their products for less money.

Pros

I can create a quote for a client in minutes with good details and add a deadline to it if I need to. I can convert the quote to an invoice if the client approves the quote. It is easy to see what invoices are open and easy to update payments for open invoices.

Cons

Changes to invoice permenant wording can be a pain because the access to this section is not obvious. Since it is something you only change once in a great while that means you have to keep great notes on how to do it or contact support every time.

### "Full Featured"

June 4, 2020

5.0

If I ever need help or further explanation of a feature, the help guides are very well written and support is available within the app. However, I don't think they work weekends.

Pros

It has so many financial and bookkeeping features inside that I still haven't used half of it in my two years of using them. I've been a member since the beginning when it was called Billy.

Cons

Not many cons but if you're not a CPA or similar professional , you probably won't use the majority of features included in the free account.

### "Keep Your Finances in Order with Billy!"

November 17, 2018

5.0

Pros

\- Easy to create and send professional-looking invoices; - Easy to track expenses; - Recurring invoices save me time for those that advertise on my site and are billed monthly

Cons

\- I'd love to see time-tracking feature for the clients I bill by the hour - Sometimes I have trouble figuring out how to change a certain setting, however, by messaging customer support I always learn quickly! - I'd love to see integrated PayPal payments so I don't have to manually mark invoices as paid

### "Billy has been a great choice for managing my books."

March 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like how easy it is to figure things out in Billy. I also like that things are customizable because I have more than one business that I send invoices for.

Cons

I don't like that it takes a few days for us to have money deposited into our account. I would like the option to use PayPal as a processor as well

### "A Promising Software with Serious Limitations"

October 24, 2018

3.0

I would use it more fully if their integrations worked well for the banks I do business with.

Pros

The interface is beautiful and laid out in a minimalist fashion. The functions of accounting and bookkeeping are well laid out and easy to follow. It's built for small business and yet they chose double-entry bookkeeping system - that's definitely a plus in my mind.

Cons

A deal killer for me was problem integrating with credit cards and banks to download transactions. These integrations worked for some banks, but not the others. Even though the layout is simple, some parts of it are not intuitive and the support is not always readily available.

November 21, 2018

4.0

Pros

\- Very easy to use web interface - Nice statistics, automatically calculates vat for tax return, informative dashboard

Cons

\- Unfortunately my Bank isn’t supported yet - Some more customization-options would be nice - The API could be simplified - No recurring expenses

### "It gets me paid without a hassle"

October 31, 2019

5.0

Overall, this has been a remarkable software, and the support is outstanding.

Pros

I've used several invoicing platforms and so far, Sunrise is the easiest. It's organized well, with the expense reports and other things I don't need to see frequently pushed to the side. The main thing is to see an overview and then see my invoices. It delivers this flawlessly. The overview shows an immediate comparison of the current year with your last year, and shows a pie chart for which clients have paid the most. It's always encouraging to see this clear info.

Cons

I would like it to integrate with TurboTax more easily. I often consider using Quickbooks invoicing just for this purpose. I'd also like a receipt snapshot feature like Quickbooks Self-Employed has, where I can just take a picture of a receipt and immediately import it into my expenses.

Reason for choosing Lendio

Sunrise was offered with a Briefcase plan

### "Super Simple Bookkeeping Option for Small Nonprofit"

May 13, 2020

5.0

Pros

Our team is all volunteer and we don’t have the resources for a lot of expensive software or training. Using Sunrise is pretty intuitive and you can learn the system really quick.

Cons

It would be nice to have an app. I think there use to be one that let you take photos of receipts but I haven’t been able to use it.

### "Extremely simple and great to use"

August 25, 2016

5.0

Setting up and getting started was super easy. We use this software for a retail store selling appliances, so lower volume of transactions a day makes it super easy and to track customer purchases.

Pros

Simple to use and easy to get started. Great simple accounting interface with all your necessary reporting

Cons

No inventory management if you need it. Would like to see a PO module in the software in the future

### "Great Software for Entrepreneurs "

November 20, 2018

5.0

It’s been a good experience thus far. They are continually making improvements to their software. (I’m excited to use the app!)

Pros

I like the ease and ability to keep my business finances in order. The dashboard is great along with the other features - being able to create invoices with a link for payment, profit/loss and balance sheets, and tax statements.

Cons

There is nothing I dislike about the software so far.

### "Accounting is boring... not with Billy"

July 11, 2017

5.0

Made my life way easier when doing business in multiple Countries. Accounting is a serious thing, and Billy is used by many companies.

Pros

Ok, I got this software to help our company with our accounting. We have clients in multiple countries and with different currencies, so Billy is super easy to use and if you need the support is fast. Billy is also a double entry software, which means its fully compliant with the rules of accountant. I know, accounting is boring, but at least with Billy can be easy.

Cons

One thing that bothers me is the lack of recurrent charges. They do have recurrent invoices capabilities, but the recurrent charges would be an awesome add-on. They said they will add it, if they really do, the software will have ALL an entrepreneur needs to keep things by the book:)

### "Marks take"

May 12, 2020

4.0

My experience has been mostly very good until recently. I have to use Firefox because the Brave browser immediately logs me out saying logged out due to inactivity. I plan on digging deeper into what the program can do for me other than invoicing.

Pros

I use this only for invoicing and it works great.

Cons

The inability to resize columns in the invoices.

### "Love Billy"

November 20, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love that this is a double- entry accounting platform. They have the ability to capture receipts and sync to my bank which is a HUGE plus. The ability to create recurring invoices is an added bonus for me as a solopreneur. Any aspect of time savings multiplied throughout my week and month is a great bonus.

Cons

The only downside for the software, for me, right now is their inability to auto=charge ACH drafts for recurring invoices. This would be a lifesaver for me for my retainer clients. Yes, they can pay via ACH, but for whatever reason none of my retainer clients have started paying that way. Any way we can make it easier for our Cilents to pay the better, and ACH would drastically reduce credit card fees.

### "Billy runs our small business"

August 26, 2016

5.0

My wife is an independent hair stylist, basically she rents a chair. We have been using Billy for our book keeping since we started it in mid 2015. It is everything we need, and for being free you absolutely cannot beat it.

Pros

Simple interface, exceptional customer service (considering it is free), and I can access it from any device I want.

Cons

Not much to dislike so far. It is a fairly basic program, so if we had a larger or more complicated business, I could see it maybe not being as useful.

### "Awesome Invoicing Made Easy"

November 16, 2018

5.0

We use Billy for invoicing, quotes/estimates, as well as keeping up with our business expenses. Our customers have given us great feedback, especially being able to pay online through the invoices we send. Our money processes in a reasonable time as well. Overall, the presentation is outstanding. Very clean and easy on the eyes, not to mention easy to use as well. Can’t say enough good things. Also, we had one slight hiccup, only once, where we couldn’t get an invoice to send through email. Customer service/tech handled this quickly and we have had no issues since!

Pros

Super easy to use Great presentation Affordable Great customer service Nice features

Cons

Honestly I’m very pleased overall with everything.

### "Fire Your Personal Finance Manager"

November 26, 2018

4.0

Pros

Billy helps you manage your personal finance with a fraction of a cost of a professional finance manager. It's intuitive and easy to use. It also available for mobile.

Cons

There's practically no bank integration for users in Asia. While the app is still functional without the integration, it would be nice for us not to be left out.

Using BillyApp for over a year now and we are very satisfied so far with its performance. There have been few issues here and there but sorted by fast support.

Pros

Ease of use of available features; accounting section is pretty good too and certainly creating expenses based on uploaded receipts is a plus.

### "What if You Could Billy Today?"

November 17, 2018

4.0

Billy takes care of an important part of my companies financiel overviews. This is great. Having said that, we are keeping are eyes open to a possible alternative, for reasons mentioned above.

Pros

The cheer amount of functionality is what I like most of Billy software. And even though they have been critiseded a lot, they kept going and improving the software. That must not have been easy. Yet, they persisted and kept development going.

Cons

Last September Billy mailed that they were looking for funding to the next set of major features. That I did not see coming and made me worrry. One could argue that by now Billy should make enough to selfsustain and develop furter. Mixed emotions.
