  • Can you edit the code and use hooks?
  • Can you style it to match of your website style?
  • Are most payment gateways supported.?
  • How secure is it?
Thanks in advance for any feedback. Here is the url if you have never heard of it before: http://www.boxbilling.com/

Theres a free version and a pro version. You can also install via Gigarank control panel (Softaculous)

I was playing a bit with Reseller Hosting before and I've been using both WHMCS and Box Billing. I used only free version of Box Billing so I can not review Paid plan. Free version is good generally, but it looks like children's playing comapring to WHMCS.

I forgot to mention that guys at WHMCS are one of the best support I have ever experienced. After I have decided not to renew second month subscription, they refunded me right away, I didn't even asked for it.

True, however WHMCS is very expensive, Gigarank have an owned lisence for whmcs, but they still insist in squeezing $$ more out of us. That's why I have been thinking of alternatives for my company. Trying to keep the overheads low.

I understand you. It's easy to recommend something that costs a lot...ha.
I'm not saying that BoxBilling won't do you jobe ... just be prepare not to be disapointed too much if you haven't used it before, especially after using WHMCS...

  • Are most payment gateways supported.?
paypal, paymentwall, and mastercard are supported
http://www.boxbilling.com/ scroll down untill you see the tab billing engines.
  • How secure is it?
that is a question i can't answer as this depends on the secrurity patches.


but to have the best features you will have to pay. free is okay bit not enough.
i say give it a try on a test area.

i hope i informed you enough.

I just read some stuff on their site.
  • Every theme is open source
  • Even this site is simply a custom BoxBilling theme
  • Templates are powered by Twig templating engine
  • Designers are not limited to system because all templates have access to powerful BoxBilling API
  • Intuitive and user friendly interfaces is what we what your clients to experience
  • Every product type has its own order form design for best user experience

It looks like you can do what ever you want with it as its open source.

Anyone who wantsa to use BoxBilling must be aware that it is product from Hostinger. Many People had bad experiences with them, either by using their Free Shared Hsoting, Free Reseller Hosting or Free VPS Hosting... I'm not saying that situation with software would be the smae... but just wanted to let you know, if you are not aware of it, if at some level you decide to use premium BoxBilling version....
 
I don't know where you get that its a product from Hostinger.

The software is open source and developers can build their own add ons for it

Just checkout Hostinger products at their Website, BoxBilling is one of them.

I don't want to post any links to Hostinger, because they are a sort fo competition to GigaRank ... but very, very bad competition!

Now I don't think this Forum is a right place to talk about Hostinger ... few years ago I was quite active on one of the Forums that is related to Hostinger and there I got the chance to find out more about them ... they were very promising company once they have started, but later Hostinger changed it's owners and things went into total opposite directions ...

Anyway, I was pointing out this fact, only if someone wants to use any Premium service there ...
