Akaunting vs. Chargebee

If anyone is searching for cloud-based Accounting software and have never used any accounting software before, then Akaunting is perfect for them. They can easily use it which will help me a lot. It has a beautiful UI and a simple one which makes it easy to use for everyone. A small business and a starting business are a good fit for this software.

Well-suited:

• In a B2B set up - Post achieving some scale and having outgrown Google Sheets/ Excels. Won't add much value if you are dealing with fewer than 400-500 invoices a year.
• We haven't explored their B2C subscription management side - but that is one of the key strengths of the platform.

• Easy to use.
• Can be installed into own hosting.
• Have lots of features.

• Reliable: We've had virtually no issues since launch.
• Care about customers: Chargebee's account managers/support team have always been very helpful/responsive.
• Feature-rich: Chargebee has a ton of features that help us do what we want and they are consistently adding new features every quarter.

• They should make their add ons more cheaper.
• And they should make few add ons free which are essential.

• It wasn't allowing us to add a one time purchase without making it an ongoing subscription with only one payment. They may have fixed it very recently but that was a big pain from a reporting perspective (it was including one time purchasers as subscribers)
• Email automation is not very robust. Difficult to customize triggers by subscription, you have to send the same message to all subscribers for a specific action
• Wish it had a way to write off and cancel the subscription of customers who haven't updated their cc info. That can be a long painful and very manual process. And if that feature is available somewhere they don't do a good job of making that clear.

Because I loved this software and I want others to know about it too, it will surely help many others who are searching for simple accounting software like I was searching some time ago.

It's very easy to use once you know what you're doing. I found it very straight forward once I got the hang of things and was able to create plans easily for my business. I was also able to just charge my clients right away easily. Refunding was also easy when needed.

I have never tried to call their support, but checking their documentation and FAQs, etc helped me a lot so they deserved this rating...

Chargebee is simple to use, and we have had little need for support.

It is very easy to use and get started with. It can be installed into my own hosting easily and is open source too which means I can add more features myself if I know programming.

The major reason to go with chargebee is its costing as compared to its competitors it is much useful and value for money.Also it has many features that is very practical and efficient to use it.I recommend to the people who involves low costing as well as futuristic features.

• It was a step in the right direction compared to ReCharge
• It had negative impacts on our revenue before we had our developers put some work into improving its capabilities with our website and software
• Now, we are seeing some positive results (after some costly updating from our end)
