The Winners

Well, I find the project feature a really great future. You can plan all your projects on a deadline. Handy for a webdesigner that forgot things to do in a project :)
The interface is also easy to use.
It’s difficult to choose my favorite feature of Billings, but one of my favorite features is the ability to use multiple slips for clients and projects. I also like the invoice designer interface. And of course, reporting is always critical when looking for performance indicators for your business.
I haven’t used Billings before, but I am really interested in being able to view summaries of my performance over time.
I like that the invoices aren’t ugly like they are in quickbooks and I like that I can time track on my desktop instead of online.
I looove the google maps integration!
the beautiful interface!
The templates are fantastic. Would be fantastic have this app for manage my bills.
Beside the intuitive interface, i think Billings is great in allowing me to customize invoicing according to my needs. Short learning curve.
It’s so easy to use! Love how simple the workflow is compared to other software applications that look like some uptight 50-yr old designed it. :)
after testing the demo. my favorite features are
the beautiful invoice templates and interface design for an efficient workflow.
Billings is simple and efficiently effective. But mostly, it’s aesthetically appealing and user friendly.
I like the google maps integration!
I like almost everything about it ;)
I have got to say, though, that my favorite feature is it sweet icon!
My favourite feature is most probably the fact that it’s the complete package and nice looking too. No reason to be unfaithful and wander off with other apps, it’s all here baby!!
I’ve downloaded the 21 day trial version last night, funny this morning I’ve found this comp thru twitter… so here it goes.. I was impressed from the install, how the program asked a few simple questions to get me started. what I liked about this was the user friendliness, I am from Australia, and the program made me feel that this wasn’t just targeted to US users (It picked up our g.s.t. tax). I am still going to explore the program, but so far I like what i’ve seen.
The Google Maps integration looks pretty sweet!
I love the way to create and manage invoices. Fast, simple and beatifull.
really cool.
I love the pre-made templates in this program! And the Google Maps part.
It has a simply awesome interface for a tiresome task. I like its simplicity, integration with Google Maps, gorgeous templates and pretty much everything about the app.
Great giveaway! My favorite feature would have to be the maps integration. I just like to know where my invoices are going out to visually.
I love Billings. The most best feature is the highly customizable template system. My future best feature would probably be the iPhone app!
Wow, my favorite is the Google Maps integration! I never new Billings had that.
Easy to use and straightforward, unlike other billing programs. It has some really cool features too! I never knew it had Google Maps integration, very cool…
I love the icon status for overdue payments – and the lush receipt graphics :)
The templates for invoice are awesome.
I could def. benefit from a copy of this. The more work I get, the more I realize how much MORE organized I need to be.
I’m up for this one! My favorite feature would have to be “Projects”. Why? What better way is there to keep all of you projects invoices separated out?
My favorite feature is that everything in on you own computer, not out there in cyber space like so many other apps.
I’m just starting to ‘put all my ducks in a row’ when it comes to the business side of my freelancing. Having Billings 3 would be a great way to start out on the right foot! My favorite feature is the receipt graphics and the clear notification of overdue invoices.
I’d call it a feature, although most might not, but I find the slick user friendly design one of the most compelling aspects of the app. All features aside it just looks really easy to interact with. Would love to give it a spin
The Google maps integration is pretty slick.
This looks way nicer (and easier) then other programs I’ve been using.
I like the Projects feature! and I just love the fact that the boys at Marketcircle made it work with OS X 10.4.11!
The interface looks great, and I love that I can customize invoices.
I’d imagine this would help out a ton with me invoicing my clients, fingers crossed :)
My favorite feature is the ability to track payments when working on multiple projects. I looked at Billings3 the other day and it looks great!
Wow, without playing with it, it’s a bit difficult to say. But, from the looks of it, I’d have to say that it has stayed true to the KISS principle and shines because it is easy to use and effectively accomplishes the user’s goals.
Looks rad.
This app would be immensely helpful for my work!
I love the tool bar icon for starting and stopping time tracking…
I love the fact that it is all together in a single easy to use package. I have other time tracking apps that generate an invoice, but they don’t allow me to mark them as paid.
It’s not one of the cool features, all together make Billings3 quiet good or better – excellent! Especially the Maps feature for international working people. Greats from Berlin, Germany.
I’ve never used it before, but judging from the reviews I’ve read, and the screen shots on the website, this app seems far more intuitive and easy to use than my current invoicing application.
This would help me so much! :D
I think this is a first when it comes to overall organization, layout and design.
But the most compelling feature would have to be the iPhone companion application upgrade. I would love to take advantage of my iPhone and save time on billing when away from my computer!
I love being able to design custom invoices. So many invoicing apps have really limited customization or invoices that are plain ugly and boring.
I would like to win please :-)
My fav feature is not really a feature, more along the design of the interface which is clear and easy to use, something a lot of applications fail to build their products on. When it’s easier to use, it becomes more about doing business and less about learning the software in order to get to business.
I like the organization it offers, and the ability to provide feedback on the actual time certain tasks require.
The best feature is the simplicity, because nobody wants to send all day invoicing.
It’s hard to single out just one feature that I like best as the entire app is a dream in terms of functionality and aesthetics. I suppose my favorite feature of Billings is the way that it allows for project stages to be broken up and managed easily.
