“Great Product for Non Profits!”

The free customer service at Bill.com makes it incredibly simple and intuitive to navigate and receive assistance whenever needed.

“Great Fund Accounting Product integrated with a weak CRM”
Pros
This fund accounting product performs well, though it could benefit from enhanced flexibility in reporting options.
Cons
Integrating a CRM platform into this fund accounting system seemed promising, but it's clear it wasn't designed with donor management in mind. For instance, generating acknowledgement letters for donations or invoice payments is not direct a fundamental aspect of CRM.

“Great system for project based accounting”
Pros
It's a simple accounting software with excellent training and support, offering solid value for money.
Cons
My experience with training on Bill.com felt disjointed, possibly because I lack formal bookkeeping training. While the advice is insightful at times, there are basic concepts that remain unclear. A more comprehensive approach to training from the ground up would be beneficial.
