You can write a plugin to do almost anything to satisfy your needs. The support is also very responsive and when an issue is found, they usually fix it very quickly. There are also many guides on their website to get you up and going quickly. Although I haven't tried it yet, you are able to run several Kill Bill instances side by side to ease the load. There is also a web interface which allows you to do most anything. It has a very solid feeling, like nothing can break it. > > **Cons**: The documentation is lacking with some of the specifics and technicalities. The Java client lacks a vast amount of Javadocs. The web interface lacks documentation and missing confirmation dialogues. > > Very solid and good to work with. ----- ### "Own your data, master your tools" — 4.0/5 > **Greg** | *4 August 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Self-hosted, fully working set of features, lots of configuration possibilities > > **Cons**: Complexity to understand and implement at first, documentation > > Kill Bill has played a major role in the launch of our SaaS project: it helped manage and master the payment process, while keeping it on our servers and under our management (which would help if we need to change payment providers or want to set up another one) ----- ### "it does not get much worse" — 4.0/5 > **Marc** | *23 March 2018* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: its free it could be usful if it had not taken 3 days to setup just the server before we could even log in > > **Cons**: its free no support shows there "only volunteers" and if you ask how to do something they suggest they tell you thats not what they do?? > > none Tylenol got all the benefits after the headache it caused\!\!\! ----- ### "Powerful Billing + Subscription + Payment System" — 4.0/5 > **Galen** | *19 February 2017* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: powerful features open source active and responsive contributors > > **Cons**: learning curve (but that's because billing is hard) version migrations > > We chose killbill for our start-up after much research. We immediately classified it as active open source project with very clever people behind it. At first we only used a small set KillBills features, specifcally the direct Payment features that integrated with Stripe and PayPal. Now that our business has grown we are currently integrating with the subscription and billing capabilities and are finding it very powerful. The Billing domain often isn't easy.... when we sat down with our product and account managers we encountered so many user stories, edge cases and 'need to haves' it got really scary for us as developers. We were very relieved to learn that KillBill has been built to cater for these sorts of user stories. As we did our analysis we were able to consistently tick off that we had coverage for the use case. We've deployed KillBill in docker to AWS easily. The API documentation thoroughly detailed and includes good user guides. The response time with GitHub issues and Google Groups posts is first class. Overall, I would highly recommend asesssing KillBill when comparing subscription and billing solutions. ----- ### "We found in KillBill a great technological partner, a solid platform with an active community." — 5.0/5 > **Matias G.** | *16 February 2018* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We had been looking for an open source billing platform for some months until we found KillBill. KillBill is very modular. The catalog is a very complete tool, enabling addons, multiple payments and alignment options, and its APIs and push notifications allow us to integrate it very easily with our software. > > **Cons**: Since KillBill is a very complete and complex tool, sometimes the learning curve can be a little steep. But I've come to realize that most of the things that I had to learn had a reason, and it was that a billing system HAS to be complex. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/106617/kill-bill?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/106617/kill-bill) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
