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”

Suman A.

Owner,Bookkeeper,TAxPreparer

“The sandbox environment works well enough for testing different payment scenarios before you push anything to production. Plus, the transaction logs are detailed, which really helps when you're debugging failed payments or trying to track down issues our users report.”

Yusuf O.

Lead Software Engineer

“Using PayPal’s instant transfer feature has saved me a lot of hassle. Whenever I need to move money between my business account and personal wallet, the button pops up right in the checkout and the funds arrive within minutes, so I never have to wait for a bank transfer to clear.”

Jessica P.

Finance Manager

Pros

“My over experience has been pleasant I cannot complain. As systems all are growing due to technology changes it is nice to have a user friendly system.”

Kerry G.

Lead Sales Representative and bar tender

“Secondly, the ability to overlay Cube into our existing Excel forecasting models and management reporting has made it exactly the right tool for our business.”

Charly R.

Senior FP and A Analyst

“No detailed project management tool to track progress of important FP&A projects like budgets, long term plans or rolling forecasts.”

Andrew S.

Head of FPA and Commercial Finance

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.”

Sandra M.

Owner

“The high processing and cross-border transaction fees and strict security policies that can unexpectedly freeze accounts or hold funds without fast access to human customer support is the biggest pain point for me”

Ekpono A.

Software Engineer

“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.”

Victoria T.

Self-Employed

Cons

“We could never get an automatic data connection with NetSuite working, so it is always a manual upload process each month.”

Anthony Y.

Senior Manager, Finance

“The implementation phase has taken longer than we had anticipated, and data errors/incorrect values continue to pop up when comparing to our ERP system that we connected to.”

Jon T.

Senior FP&A Analyst

“Integration into our ERP is a bit clunky as it needs file download and upload.”

Dan S.

Commercial Manager
