Billings Pro para Mac

This is a very good app. It's simple to get started and there appears to be a fair bit of power there when you need it. It's got a nice user interface and most things are fairly obvious. However, it's not without its problems. It seems to be server based now, which can take a while to start, or in my case, sometimes needs restarted to get it to work. The invoicing system is powerful, but very difficult to change things to suit. There's a whole new world to learn to get this to do the things you want. The biggest problem for me is the invoicing system; there's no function for online payments and no ability to add a payment button. This would be a great addition. I don't mind the subscription model, as it's tiered to suit the various users, but I do feel like Marketcircle have abandoned this; no update since 2016, discontinued user forum, and no real online presence of any update activity. Great app, but with more updates, online payment facility, and a functioning user forum, this could be amazing!

I cannot say enough good things about this program and the Help Desk. for Billings Pro. I moved from Billings on my old Macbook Pro to a Macbook Air and Billings Pro. Not being the most computer literate person I could not have migrated my account from one computer to the other without the continual help of the Billings Support Group. As a consultant, I have over a hundred clients that I bill at several different rates. I have found the program to work very well for my needs and have billed out thousands of dollars over the past few years. The monthly fee is a drop in the bucket for the paid invoices I receive! When someone asks me how to start their own consulting business I simple tell them, get a good account to keep you out of jail and get Billings Pro so you will have some money to pay the accountant and Uncle Sam!

I am using the free account on 3-4 different computers. It works just fine for me - syncs everything. Got advanced client, project, time management.

Pros: relatively easy to customize built-in designs and produce great-looking invoices. Allows company to host their data in their own servers, instead of forcing users to use their public cloud solution. Good tools for time-tracking work hours, for lone freelancers as well as for work teams. Recurring invoices, as well as pre-payments (retainers) are handled with ease. Cons: impossible to fathom why a program that allows a user to issue detailed quotes and invoices and carefully track payments, does NOT allow the user to issue receipts - the program has no function at all for doing receipts. Extremely poor interface for handling large numbers of clients - if you have any more than a couple of dozen active accounts at any given time, you'll struggle. If you have several hundred clients in your books that require regular invoicing, you'll find it unusable. No facilities to track payable commissions - a major requirement for many businesses nowadays, who work alongside referring partners and affiliates. Although it has some rather useful and well-developed features, the program is really only useful for consultants issuing sporadic invoices to a handful of active clients. If your requirements go beyond this, then you will not be satisfied. With the addition of a few more features - such as commission payment tracking, being able to more easily handle large client numbers, and being able to issue receipts - Billings Pro would appeal to a much larger user-base.

Misleading as hell. It is not free if it requires a $19 a MONTH subscription. Garbage.
