WHMCS here too, what annoys me though is no support phone line, we use it at work too (other than hosting) we have problems with client search, overdue invoicing, annoying almost weekly updates. All being said it still works quite well.
Alright so first let me say BoxBilling is great software for the price, but let me tell you why it should not be used in any production business bigger than small.
1. BoxBilling does not collect enough client data on sign up nor can you just search for your clients for fast finding during a chat.
2. I don't believe correct me here if I'm wrong, that BoxBilling stores the ip address on the clients info, this also isn't good for fixing problems in ssh.
3. BoxBilling also offers very limited payment gateways for on site credit card payments.
The Good Thing About BoxBilling Are:
1. Easy to integrate and use for anybody.
2. The price for unbranded is unbeatable.
3. It can be used in a smaller hosting business with great success.
The softwares that I like compared to WHMCS are ClientExec and Blesta, but Blesta has no Knowledgebase witch is a downside.
Blesta and ClientExec also integrate really well websites.
HostBill is nice. Unfortunately, they keep playing the shell game with prices, etc. They can't seem to make up their mind, and prices/terms seem to change on a regular basis. No way I would ever use them because of that.
Blesta offers 1 month free trial license to anyone. Anyone wondering what kind of thing is Blesta, can install it via Softaculous in one click and start using it.
I was able to buy a licence with a 1 time payment of £7 and the licence doesn't expire. It seems genuine to me! I was able to log into the main whmcs site to download it...
I think whmcs is better now and easy for use on hosting industry, I love other scripts too but whmcs is strong powerful system and other scripts need more development
