We recently took a long, hard look at the "legacy" SnapBill blog and found ourselves primarily using it to repost newsletters as well as articles about how great the world thinks our billing system is. This was not the most useful approach to keep you, our valued users :), stimulated and drooling for more billing presents.

*Turn over new leaf*. Meet SnapBill space 2.0, filled with buckets more snappiness! The new SnapBill space will keep you up to date with the latest developments and internal happenings ("Snaps of our lives") as well as provide SnapBill users with a weekly dose of billing joy.

We encourage you to join in, discuss, recommend and vote on existing or proposed SnapBill features. Let us know what your business needs, any bit of functionality that would make your life easier and make billing your clients more convenient. We are here to listen and will try our best to annihilate all your billing nightmares.

Snappy Billing,
The SnapBill Team
