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 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.”
YO

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.”
JP

Jessica P.

Finance Manager

Pros

“The platform handles our billing needs efficiently, and the MyDATA integration eliminates the headache of manual AADE submissions. While it's not perfect and lacks some advanced features found in enterprise solutions, it strikes a good balance between functionality and simplicity.”
TZ

Thanos Z.

CEO

“Invoicing, expenses, payment tracking, time logging and myDATA work smoothly and keep daily operations clear and predictable.”

“Elorus succeeds in translating a rather complex accounting and taxation system and legal framework into simple and transparent interface which facilitates the everyday life of companies of various sizes.”
PM

Panagiotis M.

Bioinformatician

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

“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”
Verified reviewer profile picture

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.”

Cons

“Invoice design options are limited, which is a drawback for a design-driven studio that values consistent branding.”
AP

Aris P.

Creative designer

“In some cases, I wasn't able to delete an invoice because it was linked to a third-party provider for digital signing. While I understand this may be due to compliance or technical constraints, it would be helpful to have more flexibility or clearer guidance in such situations.”
AT

Antonis T.

Owner

“I can't batch re-categorize costs, and can't filter by cost category.”
