    It depends, Bill.com certainly has a strong reputation and I agree it can be a great solution in the right scenario but I think the implementation and initial setup are critical and need to be well thought out based on the setup of the organization you are a part of.

    If your business is focused on one specific product or small in scope, Tradogram should be able to suit your needs. If you require simplistic reporting without in depth project codes and details, it does provide basic functionality that is very well suited for small enterprise. Companies that do all of their purchasing with POs will find it to be useful. If you are able to operate without needing it to plug back into a comprehensive ERP system, it should be sufficient.

    • The fact that bill.com automatically processes most information on the invoice is really helpful - leads to quicker processing
    • The "to do list" feature ensures you see the tasks that need to be completed ASAP
    • The reports section is very helpful in year end prepping for audits

    Cons
    BILL
    • Currently, our company uses a different platform to submit expenses, we only use bill.com to receive them. So perhaps this isn't actually a place where bill.com could improve, but the expense submission process may not have been robust enough for our company.
    • The bill.com platform wasn't the most beautiful or pleasing to use, but this is a minor fault.
    • I'd love a way to set up recurring payments (e.g., my phone bill is reimbursed each month).

    • Reporting is really rigid and not customizable (except at an additional fee)
    • The API is new and still requires significant work to connect back into our ERP
    • Non-PO invoicing is extremely basic and doesn't draw from existing features
    • Can take a lot of clicks to get through a task

    While our firm does not use Bill.com internally, we know many customers that use Bill.com and are very happy with it. Based on the feedback from current users, I would say that the product should have a strong renewal forecast. Once customers move their AP to the cloud, they would be unlikely to move it back given a choice.

    Usability
    BILL
    Bill.com continues to raise the bar with new features and improved interface. The Fast Pay option is another innovation that reduces administrative time when you have to get an overnight check out. The new Chat Support interface, powered by Zopim, which is world-class, adds to the responsiveness of Bill.com's support team and makes getting real-time answers that much easier.

    Reliability and Availability
    BILL
    The only time Bill.com was ever "unavailable" was then the Sync to Quickbooks function failed. That happened a time or two but was usually quickly remedied. I'm not sure if that's an issue with newer online versions of Quickbooks Enterprise -- at the time we were using a remotely hosted Quickbooks instance accessed via terminal server (vs a cloud offering like Bill.com is)

    I could not explain to them how I was trying to remove an old email account from my company page while granting the new email account access to the bank account that the first email account had added. The "set a bank account as inactive" button is labeled delete, but they don't seem to recognize that. I requested my Bill.com account be deleted on Wednesday so I could start all over with a fresh account; this seemed to be completed Wednesday night, but when I tried to create a new Bill.com account from the same email, it took me to my old bill.com account.

    1. Automation & Workflow Efficiency.2. Integration Capabilities with other softwaresWe needed a centralized, automated, and scalable solution for managing both payables and receivables. The strong integration with our existing accounting software was a key factor.The platform gave us better visibility and control over cash flow and approval processes.

    We evaluated Procurify as part of our initial scope conversations. Ultimately, we felt that the price point was outside of what we could support and went with the lesser cost of Tradogram instead.

    Return on Investment
    BILL
    • After receiving an offer to 'finance' outstanding invoices, I was enticed by the promise of a 3% total cost for a 60-day period, with the possibility of extending the financing for an additional 10 months (for an additional fee). Eager to access funds, I decided to finance an invoice worth $17,160.00. Within 24 hours, BILL deposited $16,645.20 (97% of the invoice amount) into my account.
    • However, when the customer paid their $17,160 invoice four days later, instead of the funds being deposited into my checking account as I expected, BILL chose to retire the loan and retain my $514.80 fee for the 4 day advance period. This unexpected turn of events resulted in an effective interest rate of a staggering 273.75%. It was clear that this arrangement was far from what I had initially understood, and the financial impact was outrageously high.
    • Frustratingly, my attempts to resolve this issue through customer service were in vain, as I spoke with three agents who provided no satisfactory solutions. To anyone contemplating using BILL's services, I strongly urge you to carefully scrutinize the fine print and consider opting for a more reputable finance company."

    • The product was priced very well as we made the transition from a homegrown internal system.
    • The need to pay to customize the system to do what we need it to do has been cumbersome.
    • The API connection back to our ERP system has not been optimal and has required us to engage with outside parties to assure that it is working properly.
