Billwerk+

Avantages

Billwerk is uniquely positioned to provide a full subscription billing solution for mid to large companies who require strict adherence to german bookkeeping and accounting standards (GOBD).
With its set of APIs the solution is easy to integrate into a marketing technology or enterprise software framework. Based on these APIs we connect Billwerk to CRM Systems and to ERP and/or accounting systems.
We like the fact that we can deploy a solution very easy and fast based on their existing checkout pages. And later integrate the billing systems into an optimized checkout journey.

Inconvénients

Difficult to say. Not much really.
Maybe some customers may miss particular US-centric conventions in billing and checkout journeys.

Pourquoi passer à Billwerk+

Avantages

We run KERNWERK®, a fitness app for functional fitness athletes.

Our customers are private individuals - we have the highest demands on the user experience in our fast moving App Business.

We have developed our own and highly customized checkout flow - only Billwerk offers us this high degree of adaptability.

Furthermore, Billwerk has excellent customer support. On weekdays, you receive high-quality answers reliably on the same day. I have never experienced a situation where an inquiry could not be answered by an untrained support employee.

We have thousands of monthly invoices with small amounts that would make our accounting department a huge effort. Billwerk books all invoices completely correctly according to German requirements so that our tax consultant can rely completely on the delivered DATEV files.

Billwerk also meets the high requirements of GDPR.

Inconvénients

Compared to other tools Billwerk's interface is a bit nerdy; in our experience a short training is necessary for your own team.

Other tools on the other hand have a polished UI with many "vanity metrics" that you won't find at Billwerk.

However, I see this as a disadvantage for users who are looking for a one-click solution. We were looking for exactly that - a software that stays completely in the background (whitelabel) and is 100% customizable.

Pourquoi passer à Billwerk+

Avantages

I tried reepay a few times, mostly international sales. It’s great for me and my clients. All payments were received on time every time. Any errors that occurred easily fixed. This software is easy to customize and navigate and it’s cost-effective which is great for my small business

Inconvénients

There were a few double payments which had to be corrected but I’m not certain if it was software or user error

Avantages

One of the things I like most about billwerk is the ability to customize billing plans for my customers. I can offer a variety of options, such as monthly, quarterly, or annual billing, and billwerk handles all of the details for me. This saves me a lot of time and hassle. Additionally, the automatic payment processing feature is a game-changer. I no longer have to manually process and track payments, which frees up time for me to focus on other aspects of my business.

Inconvénients

The reporting features could be more robust. While I am able to get the information I need, I find it a bit cumbersome to access and the visual presentation of the data is not as aesthetically pleasing as I would like.

Avantages

An Billwerk+ gefällt mir, dass ich eine gute Gesamtübersicht über Rechnungen habe. Die Kosten und der Aufwand sind minmal. Zudem kann ich mit dem Programm schnell und einfach wiederkehrende Rechnungen verwalten, da dee Prozess automatisiert ist.

Inconvénients

Ich fände es klasse, wenn es in der Liteversion die Mehrsprachigkeit gäbe. Das ist etwas, was man als selbständiger Unternehmer mit Kontakt zu vielen fremdsprachigen Kunden oft nutzt.

Avantages

We have used billwerk for like two year in order to manage all subscriptions plans for a B2B SaaS product. I am pretty happy about how it works and what you can do with it.

Inconvénients

Billwerk is missing some features and for a beginner it can be quiet hard to understand how everything works.

Avantages

- It strongly decreased our time effort to run our subscription based business model
- Vast options to administer your customers, their plans, invoicing etc.
- Localized to German requirements, but also ready for other countries

Inconvénients

Not much. For non-German/EU customers, a few payment options could be added and the invoicing could be localized more to their needs. That is quite transparent from the beginning though and not a big issue if your customers are mostly EU-based.

Inconvénients

for now I am happy about everything with Reepay

Avantages

Billwerks's subscription management capabilities are definitely beyond my expectations.

Inconvénients

Refunds module could be developed in a more user-friendly way.

Avantages

Its easy to use. No real knowledge is required because its very intuitivly and slim designed.

Inconvénients

There where slightly not enough options for characterising a customer.

Avantages

Eine sehr leistungsstarke Software für die Verwaltung von Abonnements und die Abrechnungen aus Deutschland. Vor allem natürlich sehr gut, dass alle deutschen Prozess Anforderungen hier abgedeckt werden.

Inconvénients

Es fehlt leider noch eine Schnittstelle zu Datev
