Blinksale vs. Melio

Blinksale is perfect for any small business. Having multiple ventures myself, I use Blinksale for each of them and I have never had an issue.

Melio is particularly well suited for small businesses above $100K in revenue whose owners want to save time and simplify bill payments. It is helpful to bookkeepers so that they don't have to ask the owners, over and over again, "what was that check for?" and "can you send me the bill?"

• The simplicity it adds to business payments is a great deal. One feature we really value it the ability to pay vendors by check. Melio prints and mails checks for us which saves time and hassle.
• Payment scheduling tool is another thing we enjoy. This tool lets us plan ahead and manage cash flow more effectively by setting payment dates in advance.
• Another thing Melio does well is the tracking of payment.
• There was a time a vendor claimed that they hadn't been paid, but with just a few clicks we could see the check has already been delivered.
• This kind of transparency gives us confident and keep things professional.
• The integration with other platform or accounts like QuickBooks is an experience I did love to keep.

Incentivized

• Dedicated iPhone/Android app

• There should be an automatic link between vendors added with their Melio link and the same vendors that already exist in QuickBooks. As it is now, a new vendor is created when you do that and is not linked with the one that already is in QuickBooks.

I'm giving Blinksale a 10 because it really is a perfect invoicing app. Sure, there are things that can be grown, but comparative to other invoicing apps I've used, Blinksale is lights-out. There isn't a small business owner that doesn't need to try out Blinksale for invoicing.

It has solved almost all the business needs I have and has contributed greatly to my business growth.

Melio has been a very important tool in the advancement of our business. With great features, it has made payments to vendors seamless and hassle free. In terms of vendor management, account/data tracking, and scheduling of payments in advance. This has formed the base that we are still with Melio till today.

After evaluating and using several invoicing applications, I landed on Blinksale. They just fit my needs perfectly as a small business owner. The app is brilliantly designed, easy to navigate, painless, and makes invoices look great to clients. Tracking invoices and getting paid inside Blinksale are a breeze. On top of that, their unlimited plan for $15 a month is a steal for the product they are offering.

Melio is 100% free if you just use ACH, and that by itself would be reason enough for me to stick with the platform, it boats a ton of other useful features that add to the experience.

• DPO (Days Payable Outstanding) / I get paid faster
• Client Payment Tracking
• Stress-Relief from invoicing and quoting

• I have been able to save hours every week now that I am only using Melio as my payment processor
• I can easily add invoice details which I use to create in another platform and upload to Melio, this saves me time with projects I want to be quicker with
• The ease of use for my clients is fantastic, and makes for a seamless workflow
