My business relies on Billings Pro
Even though it seems like they’ve been neglecting the Mac OS app, it still functions, albeit some minor bugs. I use this app daily. I hope they release some stability updates soon.
Been using the desktop app for years, but this mobile app is useless
Useless is not an understatement. I mean, this is truly utterly useless in every way.
I try downloading this app every few years in case it has been overhauled, but it never has been. It’s a bummer because the desktop app is pretty great and I have relied on it for a very long time. It would be cool to take care of things on the go. But alas!

Developer Seems Disengaged
I’ve been a Marketcircle customer for a decade and their development seems to have vaporized. I used to see frequent fixes and updates and now I don’t see anything at all. Their support team responds quickly and without fail, but nothing ever gets fixed or updated. A while back they switched to a subscription model with the usual promises of more updates. I don’t think they’ve held up their end of the bargain at all.

2 years old app!
How Apple can allow a 2 years old app without updates ? Are they still in business ? Terrible app
No actual improvements for over 5 years
I have been using Billings pro for 8 years and have not seen any actual improvement to the UI and actual UX for over 5 years.
Suggested improvements have not been implemented, and while it seems to be robust for the basics, the necessary improvements to creating Reports has not been implemented.
This is cheaper than other software but without the additional benefits. Best to use the desktop version than the iOS app.

Useful when it works...
Not at all reliable. You have to get the desktop App also, the mobile app alone will lose you time while you wait for it to work, and cost you money when it syncs badly and doesn’t update slips etc.
Still the best!
I’ve used it for years!
Perfect !
Perfect billing tool.
I'm a French user.
No expensive for the provided services.
Now using it since 2006

Lots of potential
Could have been a great system including iPad, iPhone, & watch support. But the systems don’t sync with the desktop apps which haven’t been updated in years. Not sure what’s going on, but looks like I’ll be looking for a new billing solution - again..
Greedy Developer
I Paid for this app when it first came out. Now they want me to pay for a subscription. Unacceptable.
Inconsistent and Confusing
The Mac app is outdated now (I am getting compatibility warnings) and looks nothing like the mobile app, leading to confusion when going between them. Also syncing does not seem to work well between mobile and desktop. There are much better, cheaper options out there, so with regret, I have moved on from this app.

Low functionality & editing slips on iPad still shows iPhone size editing display
The title says it all. Cannot edit slips on iPad as the screen is way too small. Not worth installing. Stick with Mac version.
Not synced, mismatched features, useless
I’ve never really used the iPhone app, it always messed up sync sometimes creating or deleting items at random, but I generally had a laptop with me with the desktop app. When I actually need the mobile app to invoice while on holiday, I tried it to find the amounts inaccurate, the syncing not correct & items that aren’t even marked as complete included on the invoice. I couldn’t use it if I wanted to look professional & be accurate, so I’ll just have to wait til I’m back at a desktop & delay my receipt of payment. Useless and makes me want to move away from Billings ASAP.

Marketcircle ending self-serve
Marketcircle has decided to end the option of hosting your own database, instead forcing you to use their cloud servers for a monthly fee. I will never rely on cloud services for my business - both times I tried, their servers were down and I could not retrieve an invoice for a client asking for one. Highly embarrassing when someone wants to pay me but can’t because MY stuff isn’t working. Since making the choice to use self-serve, I’ve had 100% uptime. I was in control. I will not pay them monthly to lose that level of control over my livelihood. Ending this product is a poor decision. According to their mass-email to self-serve customers, we only make less than 15% of their revenue base, so financially they’d like to trim that and force everyone to the cloud under the guise of “consolidating their software developer team.” That choice will cost them customers when self-serve customers have better options to go to, and cloud customers get fed up with downtime and a lack of competent support. They could have charged a yearly fee for updates and support, so long as they kept the self-serve product working I would be happy. I was originally a Billings customer, forced into to Billings Pro when they decided to end that product, now forced away again, this time from their company altogether. Inconvenient to lose my options when all they have to do is maintain a product that works well as it is.

?!?!
Downloaded this app. I tried to create an account. EVERY single time, it said my business ID (or whatever it said) wasn’t available. So I tried 10 more. After the app closed on its own while I was trying yet again to create an account, I checked my business email. TEN emails. One from each of the accounts I attempted to create because the app said it failed.
This does not give me confidence in this app.
I then tried to unsubscribe, each time it led me to a 504 gateway time out page.
Crap app. Don’t waste your phone space.

Doesn't even open
Pretty bad when you can't even set up an account because their cloud server is down.
iPhone X support please
It would be nice to have iPhone X support.
I expected it in the last update.

Great theory - terrible execution
This app has been used since 2014 in our law firm, the more "updated" Apple becomes the more out of date this app is. Great idea, looks good, and if it operated would be amazing - but really really fails at executing.
App doesn't load
The app doesnt load properly and then you are unable to delete the account

Connects to self hosted server but doesn't upload anything from iOS devices - despite 'completing' a sync, nothing is uploaded and subsequently can't be worked on, on the Mac.
Used to be reliable. Now the product has gone to hell.
Connection works fine from the Mac, and iPhone, but won't connect to self-hosted server from iPad - in fact, won't connect at all, just sits at 'connecting' and never does anything.
What gives?
iOS 7, iPad 4
