Simple Easy to Use Accounting Software for Today's Self-Employed Professional

What do you like best? Simplicity and Ease of Use.

A great web-based application - with all the features of the big guys, without the cost

Billy is a pleasure to use

What do you like best? On-boarding as a new user is delightfully simple, and the custom invoice builder allows me to send nicer, more professional invoices to my clients. As a creative pro, it's the extra little "wow" factors that make a difference, What do you dislike? Honestly, the logo. I get it, but just wish it was less cartoonish, and more professional. It's a bit weird when that I always have a dude's head on my screen (Sorry, I know nobody likes other designers ripping on their ...

Cash and Expense Workflows Easily Setup in Billy

What do you like best? It was easy to implement in our business and get up and running straightaway. The Quotes feature is very handy if you find yourself pitching many services and pushing out customised quotes reguarly.

Awesome Accounting Software

What do you like best? I love the chrome extension. When I purchase something for my business, I simply capture the receipt and it automatically saves to my Billy. What do you dislike?

Perhaps integrate with PayPal also... Recommendations to others considering the product It is easy to use, creates ...

Great customer service and free training

What do you like best? I like how Billy offers free professional training on setting up accounting for your business, and in general, the ease of use. What do you dislike? My local small business bank is not included on the list for automating data transfer. Also, the invoices are not as customizable as I would like, and they seem to lack the ability to add multiple recipients and to track recipient opens/actions. Recommendations to others considering the product See if your bank ...

Start-up, Entrepreneur, Minimal Accounting Knowledge - No worries - Billy is for you

What do you like best? User-friendly, easy to use, logical and the great support from Laurie. Love that it is evolving and improving on a regular basis. The layout of the pages and the colours are also really good - I am dyslexic and clarity makes a huge difference. What do you dislike? I struggled to find how to account for refunds - but that has now been sorted out and there is an easy way. Recommendations to others considering the product Doing our accounts terrified me. I'm ...

Loving it so far!

What do you like best? I've only just started to use Billy, but so far I love it. It is very simple - even for someone who is not a software or accounting pro. I used the invoicing for a new client and felt great about sending something so professional-looking after two decades of making my invoices in a word processing program. I've barely scratched the surface of what Billy can do, but I"m happy so far! What do you dislike? I don't dislike anything about it at this point. What ...

Completely replaced my website invoicing system

What do you like best? I love how Billy lets me send quotes and invoices and keep track of everything in a simple and easy to manage system. From checking Billy I get an idea of what my revenue stream looks like and it even sends reminders for when someone hasn't paid within a set time period. What do you dislike? I was hoping Billy would be more like Mint or QuickBooks and pull my bank data through too, sadly this isn't the case although I can upload receipts to it which is nice. ...
