What customers are saying

“When we switched over to BILL, the training took like two minutes, and the department heads were all thrilled at how easy it was.”
Alan Fessenden
Vice President
Larkin University
“If you work in a business office where you subscribe to the idea that [your] role is to make the faculty’s lives easier and therefore, by extension, the students’ lives better, then BILL Spend & Expense is absolutely a tool to be able to accomplish that.”
Tanya Horgan
Business Manager
Kent School
“Our cash flow is tricky because tuition comes in from different semesters and overlaps fiscal years. Before adopting BILL, we used a paper system to manage accounts payable, mailing out paper checks to pay vendors.”
