Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • This is a great way to pay all our bills in one place from multiple sources. It is intuitive to use . You can set up two or three way approvals with this system to streamline your approval system.
  • I like how easy it is to add new invoices to be paid. Once the invoices are in the system it automatically matches them to vendors. This can help quicken the data entry process. It also allows us to maintain internal controls by allowing a remote worker to make the payments and separate the work. Being able to pay vendors via electronic fund transfers is great and the process to request the vendor set it up is easy on our end.
  • We are a small non-profit without a dedicated administration or accounting team, and bill.com has been a great way to easily pay invoices, even to international donors. Customer support has been prompt when we've had questions or need assistance.
  • I like that Bill.com connects to QuickBooks and is user-friendly for people who don't have extensive experience in accounting. The features are intuitive, and tech support is available via chat when I need it.
  • - The image processing feature works excellently, as soon as a new bill is uploaded, it is converted into digital text and saved. Makes it easy to save and forget bills.

Cons

  • They don't send out true remittances, only notifications. It would be nice if they notification included the invoice numbers being paid and all credits taken. Integration with Quickbooks Online is a little clunky and needs some work.
  • Sometimes I have to help vendors set up the electronic funds transfer information. It can be confusing on their end sometimes.
  • The paid service can be a bit pricey, but I have not found a cheaper alternative that allows for online approvals.
  • From an A/R perspective, it is cumbersome for customers to connect and pay their bills using the platform. If they made it possible to pay via credit card or bank transfer instead of going through so many steps to sign up, my customers would be happier to use bill.com to pay their bills.
  • - I would appreciate some data analytics on my past usage and some suggestions about how I can reduce the spending on some things.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Everything: it is easy to use, they have excellent support (always there to help), they are always improving their system to be better, they have new features that can help us grow our money, and also pay faster. Everything is great.
  • Nickel makes handling both receivables and payables incredibly easy for my aviation insurance brokerage. Payments are simple to send and collect, funds arrive quickly, and the cost is extremely competitive compared with other platforms I've used. The service has also been very reliable, and on the few occasions I've needed support, I've gotten a helpful response and a quick resolution.
  • API to integrate directly with our CRM Great payment UI Ability to do partial payments Ability to add cc fees
  • Nickel makes handling both Accounts Payable (AP) and Accounts Receivable (AR) simple. I like that I can send and receive ACH payments completely for free. It also lets me pass credit card processing fees directly to the customer, which saves my business a lot of money.
  • Nickel is incredibly easy to use, and their customer support is top notch. Best of all, our vendors and customers consistently tell us how much they appreciate the smooth payment experience on their end.

Cons

  • I like everything :) We haven't encountered any cons with them, and if something happens, they are always there to help and resolve any issues.
  • My complaints are pretty minor. The two things I'd most like to see are a direct Xero integration and API access included at a lower subscription tier. Neither is a dealbreaker. I can work around both in my day-to-day operations, but either would make an already excellent product even better.
  • I have been having some issues with the webhooks but nothing major and they have been very responsive
  • They do not offer international payment options right now. They also don't allow you to transfer funds between internal Nickel accounts directly.
  • Honestly, nothing significant comes to mind. The platform has been straightforward and easy to use from day one, and any questions we've had were quickly resolved by their support team.
