Sunrise Reviews in April 2025: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

"Easily create and track invoice"

Billy is also a SaaS, so there's no software/app to install and can be accessed anywhere. What do you dislike? Billy has a cool feature of reconciling bank accounts. Unfortunately, it hasn't supported the country I'm currently residing. Recommendations to others considering the product: If you're ...

"Overall a great work in progress - needs a few improvements to get it over the line"

What do you like best? It's much simpler to learn and use than its competitor products, like Xero in particular. What do you dislike? There are quite a few issues which appear relatively minor but are actually blocking me entirely from switching over to it fully until they're resolved. In particular, there are three problems with invoices & receipts at the moment, which are a big problem for me: 1) Billy sends a receipt email to clients which contains a Settings link only actually intended ...

"Impressive"

What do you like best? The simplicity of use, the UI also looks nice and the customization options are useful. The invoice looks really good when sent to the client. What do you dislike? It is difficult to do withholding tax in Kenya. Sending invoices out could have more options such as emailing more than one user at a go. There needs to be a way to send out receipts or invoices marked as paid. The pricing could be a bit cheaper $5-8 would be ideal What problems are you solving with the ...

"Good for freelancers and one man shows"

What do you like best? The ease of use and the intuitive features of Billy make it super easy to streamline, but with multiple revenue streams and connections to multiple marketplaces, it wasn't the right fit for our business. What do you dislike? It wasn't robust enough to handle some of the features and reports we were looking for. There were too many variables in play with our business, and it just didn't work out, even though we would have liked it to. What problems are you solving with ...

"Broken promises, lackluster performance"

What do you like best? Pretty simple to generate an invoice, UX is nice. What do you dislike? I was told that they would be able to link banks which was and continues to be false. They said they had problems and it would take at most a month more. I waited more than 6 weeks and then got another email it would take an ADDITIONAL 6 weeks. So 12 weeks - 3x longer than it was supposed to take. I've pinged customer service multiple times about multiple issues with the software and the canned ...

"Best accounting software for us"

What do you like best? I like the user friendly interface and design. It''a not overwhelming or intimidating. My wife who is a non-tech person found it easy to use and figure out. What do you dislike? I didn't like at first the inability to split taxes in Canada. But Billy did update it later! Recommendations to others considering the product: Great job What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Giving clients an easy and professional method to paying ...

"Simplicity - quick snapshot"

What do you like best? The dashboard and reports are clear and precise, tells me what I need to know to track goals. I really like the templates or recurring invoices I can quickly modify for a similar client. What do you dislike? I wish it worked better on mobile or there was a dedicated app. There doesn't appear to be an easy way to scroll to right side of the screen. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Easy to create professional looking invoices.

"Easy to use billing and expense tracking tool"

What do you like best? It's easy to set up recurring invoices, group expenses by category, organize bills. The emails clients get with their invoices are easy to personalize, which is really neat. I have not tried billing directly through Billy but will try that going forward as my business grows. It also has a fun feel and friendly / happy interface which a lot of other "big brand" expense management tools don't have. What do you dislike? There isn't much I dislike about it -- it's really ...

"The friendly Billy"

What do you like best? It's so easy to create a client and send an invoice. I dislike accounting for projects and collecting. I prefer the creative aspect of projects. But with Billy, it's streamlined for freelancers like me. Running a small business and maintaining relationships with clients is important. What do you dislike? Billy is great. Nothing as of yet. Maybe better integration Recommendations to others considering the product: If you're a freelancer or someone who is looking for ...
