FreshBooks is an excellent Software as a Service for Online Invoicing for commercial blog owners, small business owners for one time or recurrent billing. We discovered FreshBooks from Rackspace Cloud’s Managed Hosting’s Client Control Panel. Rackspace, usually uses or suggests the best available option, but it turned to be more than what we could expect from an Online Invoicing Software.
FreshBooks and Software as a Service
Payment Gateways are the best solution for transaction of Money. Paypal is basically a shortcut. Paypal merchant account does have quite good set of features, but it is actually not a Service for Online Invoicing. People uses fee online Billing Softwares to create pdf online. Those who can afford, uses Adobe Acrobat. We explained Software as a Service before, FreshBooks is a good example of such tool.
FreshBooks : The Features We Really Liked
Expected Graphical User Interface from a Online Invoicing Software is a crap look, which people who have zero knowledge about accountancy, feels quite boring. The normal look of FreshBooks is with blue bar :
http://www.freshbooks.com/
Wait, our account is not blue at all :

And interestingly, this look has been created by just simple uploading of our logo, FreshBooks itself has configured the color of the tabs. You can edit the color overriding the auto settings, change the Tabs etc.
FreshBooks and the Flexible ways of getting Paid
FreshBooks solves a big problem – getting an account of Authorize.net. Authorize.net is used by Rackspace, deviantArt, Google for payment via Debit and Credit Cards all over the world. PayPal is oneway in India as rightly, Reserve Bank of India made the payment from India banned, because of its various issues to save from getting ripped. The problem becomes bigger when an Indian resident with Master Card Secure code enabled Debit or Credit Card needs to pay ! Paypal will be rejected by the gateway for security reasons. So the solution is to setup Authorize.net payment Gateway to receive money from the clients from India. But, getting an Authorize.net account is quite tough as they vigorous check the validity. It is difficult and painful. We do not know about the others but, for combined profile of having a Rackspace Cloud account (they accepts only payment through Mastercard, Visa,etc.). When we are applying through FreshBooks via Rackspace, the profile is becoming actually already checked. For example, we pay quite good amount per month through an account linked Master Card Secure Code enabled Debit Card. Rackspace manually phones to check for opening an account. As these are the facts which points – I as a human exist with the data provided is real, it becomes easy to get an Authorize.net account. Plus, the cost and pain of setup of SSL enabled webpage on our domain is bypassed.
