Pros

“Bill is a great software to keep track of bill payments, AR, AP, customer invoicing and payments, running reports and has great customer support.”

Hallye N.

Operations Manager

“My clients are easily able to access and pay invoices, and I am able to set up my clients with recurring invoices, to alleviate extra work for me.”
CS

Christian S.

Freelancer and Owner

“We use this system with a specific client and it has made invoice submission and receiving so easy to track where it is in the process, it sends automated reminders on payment, and you have the ability to see when it is approved for payment submission, and progression of payment.”
KK

Kimberly K.

CEO and Founder

Pros

“PayPal is the go-to for fast, secure online payments. While not a full accounting tool, it's excellent for collecting payments, sending invoices quickly, and managing basic expense tracking on the go”
SA

Suman A.

Owner,Bookkeeper,TAxPreparer

“The platform is intuitive, widely recognized, and trusted by customers, which helps increase buyer confidence and makes the payment process smoother. While there is room for improvement in areas such as transaction costs, occasional technical issues, and expanded marketing tools, PayPal has remained a valuable part of my business operations.”
BZ

Briana Z.

Art Instructor

“The platform makes complex payment workflows feel simple, with intuitive navigation, clear transaction history, and useful invoicing tools that support both individuals and businesses.”
BH

Braden H.

Senior Product Designer

Cons

“Bill.com’s overly complex verification requirements and poor communication have severely impacted my trust in their service. Once I receive my payment, I will be canceling my account and ensuring my data is securely removed from their systems.”
TH

Thaier H.

CEO

“The delays in receiving my payment, the constant requests for more documentation, and the lack of transparency in their verification process left me with serious concerns about their credibility.”
TH

Thaier H.

CEO

“The program will add companies on it's own, causes some disruptions in the invoicing process as you have to filter out the business list.”
CP

Christie P.

Director of Operations

Cons

“While PayPal allows you to accept payments and secures everything for both parties, the payment processing fails when people want to pay with a credit card, due to too many verification steps.”
SM

Sandra M.

Owner

“Customer support repeatedly provided generic responses without explaining the reason for the suspension or offering any meaningful appeal process. While PayPal excels in ease of use and is a trusted payment option for customers, the possibility of losing access to your account without explanation makes it difficult for me to recommend relying on it as your primary payment processor.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Victoria T.

Self-Employed

“I was once unable to claim a payment due to PayPal requiring documentation on my end, which, while I appreciate the heightened security, their automated process had an issue in which it wouldn't accept the document I was providing, even though it met the requirements.”
