Billy Reviews in March 2025: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

MIGRATED TO Sunrise

Good at business. Sucky at accounting.

What do you like best? Billy makes it easy to do the "make the business run" stuff that I either (1 hate doing or (2 suck at doing. I understand it all now and get it done. I tried using Quickbooks on the recommendation of my accountant. It did everything I needed, but I couldn't understand the way it thought through stuff. Couldn't figure out how to make everything work with my business. No problems like that with Billy!! What do you dislike? At this point, I don't have any dislikes. ...

Excellent Accounting Software for contractors or small businesses

WAY simpler than QuickBooks

Will need recurring billing (for subscription services Will eventually need to ...

Perfect for my needs

What do you like best? I love the bank reconciliation feature, multi currency support, and the fact that it's so fast and snappy. No more waiting around for your accounting software to do it's thing, it works great even on slow connections. What do you dislike? Not too much. Some of the cross currency operations I need to perform are a bit hackish still, but not a big issue. Recommendations to others considering the product Give it a shot! What business problems are you solving ...

Perfectly Okay

What do you like best? I use Billy because I found an AppSumo deal that gave away a lifetime license. For me & my business I invoice clients infrequently. So paying once is perfect for my business. It lets you add infinite clients and send infinite invoices so that's great for your business. What do you dislike? Compared to it's competitors like Freshbooks I don't see anything that set's it apart. I'd go with Freshbooks if I had to pay for this service monthly. I also had a hard ...

Billy is awesome

What do you like best? We replaced two different services that we were paying for, with Billy. Big win for us. I also love the layout and design. It's simple and pretty easy to navigate. What do you dislike? Right now we are unable to reconcile two different payments/clients with one deposit and that is really frustrating. But we are hoping for a solution soon! Recommendations to others considering the product Make sure you have someone on your team dedicated to mastering Billy and ...

Billy is great!

What do you like best? I feel like Billy has simplified my accounting and billing. It's been great and the team is very supportive with any questions or problems I've had. What do you dislike? My bank was not recognized when I first signed up, but I believe they are expanding the service so more international banks will be able to be accessed with Billy. Recommendations to others considering the product I find Billy to meet all my needs and be a great accounting system for a small ...

Ease of Use

What do you like best? They have created Billy to be simple and easy for anyone to use. Whether you are a CPA or a "regular Joe" like me. It's really simple to get setup and snd out your first invoice. Their platform walks you through everything you need and helps you integrate your entire operation into the system. What do you dislike? It's not Quicken... but it doesn't need to be!! I really don't have any dislikes at this point in time (besides the look of Billy's face!!. Of ...

Simple accounting at low cost

What do you like best? Billy doesn't have all the bells and whistles of Xero et al but for a sole worker it's got enough and at a really good price. Link up your bank account and record each transaction. It's that simple. What do you dislike? There's no budget functionality yet so you can't tell how you are tracking against your expectations. Recommendations to others considering the product Check out Billy, if it doesn't have what you need then try Xero's free trial. What business ...
