We looked at 10 other companies when we decided to switch and found the one that worked the best for us.

There is no comparison. ServSuite's mobile app was a complete joke and PestPac felt like it was built in the 90s... To train people in either software to be proficient took weeks. You can train in FieldRoutes in a couple of days. The software is intuitive and functions well …

I found PaySimple through another company. They offered integrated platforms for invoicing and follow-up questionnaires with our clients. I would never recommend PaySimple to a friend. In my experience, customer service could care less about helping you with a simple name …

+ Clean interface
+ Customer Service easily accessible
- Cost reporting simplicity
Chose PaySimple
PayPal has no monthly but a high transaction fee. PaySimple has a low transaction but high monthly fee. So if you do a lot of transactions (like over 70K/mo) you should consider PaySimple.
Chose PaySimple
The interface is cleaner and more user-friendly.
Chose PaySimple
PaySimple feels a bit more comprehensive of a solution. The timing of invoice processing feels quicker and the bank level encryption feels more secure.
Chose PaySimple
SetMore has a superior booking service, but PaySimple has the best recurring billing platform.
Chose PaySimple
PaySimple has recurring payments and lower monthly fees. You can setup recurring payments which allows you to charge a customer automatically. That saves a lot of time every day. If a charge does not go through after being processed then I get an email right away showing that …

Way better processing, customer service and invoicing with PaySimple.
Chose PaySimple
Authorize.net and a handful of other merchant processors and gateways. Most payment gateways (online portals to process payments) are rudimentary and not extremely intuitive. PaySimple is not and they are constantly coming up with new ways to improve upon an already very …

We found that it works well for most of our needs. It is user-friendly and easy to use for both the office staff and the field staff. One problem that they have not been able to fix is for the field technicians to take credit cards in the field. We tried the beta program and unloaded and reloaded the software on the iPads, and we still have that problem.

We're a marketing agency and it's worked perfectly for our recurring payment retainers (same amount each month).
It would also work well for a company with a set product line up or a company that wants a more traditional "store" setup.

Pros
  • Scheduling routes.
  • Invoicing and finance charges for customers.
  • Time clock for employees checking in and out.

  • Their Support is very responsive and helpful. Any time that I have had trouble understanding an email I received from Pay Simple or how to update something on an invoice, I have used the chat feature. The agents are quick and provide great step by step instructions to assist. If they did not have a solution, they assured me it would be submitted as a request to development or let me know when it would be coming.
  • I love the ease of initially beginning/charging a payment (either one time or recurring). It is not time-consuming and is very straightforward which is helpful when entering multiple new payments a day. Everything I need to enter a new payment is directly on the home screen and easy to find.
  • I appreciate the clean layout of the homepage.

Cons

  • API documentation

  • More proactive and empowering role in merchant fee's and alternative processors. Transparency is challenging in understanding Paysimple's role and relationship to the processors.
  • Identifying areas for further value to clients.
  • More targeted small to mid-size business perspective to anticipate growth challenges and prevent blocks on funds for legitimate sales and growth.

I found PaySimple through another company. They offered integrated platforms for invoicing and follow-up questionnaires with our clients. I would never recommend PaySimple to a friend. In my experience, customer service could care less about helping you with a simple name change or becoming PCI compliant. The overall cost to our company became unbearable.

  • Because we've got a really awesome rate with them it's definitely a positive ROI. I can't say what that figure is but it's pretty good. Also, our customers have a huge ROI over their prior way of getting payment from their customers.
