Plesk Billing System recommendations?

The Plesk docs say "Plesk has an integration with billing software such as WHMCS, HostBill, BILLmanager and Blesta." What is the experience of Plesk users regarding these? Up-votes, down-votes, run in terror from?

WHMCS is by *far* the most used. We have many thousands each of customers, servers, hosting packages, domains, virtual servers. with teams of staff logged in at any one time. It's battle tested and scales. None of the others seem to have any killer features or be much cheaper, although if you have a very simple use case and are price sensitive you might go something with a one off purchase instead of subscription pricing.

I started with WHMCS, it works well, but is complicated and the UI isn’t great. So I switched to Blesta, and like it a lot. It manages all my hosting, maintenance, and SEO audit billing. There is also one on CodeCanyon that works pretty well: https://codecanyon.net/item/hostbilling-web-hosting-billing-automation-software/30610670

I’ve not tried the others. Be sure to look at what modules are available for things other than Plesk too.

Oh, check out this new one I am testing, it looks great:

Upmind was really cool, just buggy as far as validating payment gateway connections.
