Bill is a suited solution for small businesses, looking to handle individual and batch payments. The integration with book keeping solutions keeps redundancy down as well as clerical issues. I am not sure the volume of transactions processed by Bill monthly, but this solutions may not be appropriate for large enterprise payment solutions. I am also unaware of the Global currency payment functions.

BILL allows us to keep digitally connected with the subset of our customers who also utilize the program. Overall, the ease of access and payment insight provided by BILL is a positive addition to our organization. When there has been any slight issue regarding incoming payments from customers, it is easily addressed.

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.

This is a good tool to streamline AP.

Our only experience is using them for ACH and credit card accounts receivable and I would NOT recommend them. From experience, they withhold funds without explanation for weeks past their advertised processing time of 5-7 days for ACH. In my opinion, customer service is unhelpful and does not offer explanations for why your funds are being held. Personally, we have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars working with them the past 6 weeks. For the previous 2 years they did not do this.
