Billing Addon For Pterodactyl - PteroBill vs Pterodactyl Free - Which One?

Many business clients ask "Which module should I use? The free one created by one of the Pterodactyl developers or the paid one by OrgPack with more features?" Let's take a closer look and hopefully provide more clarification into why we personally recommend PteroBill over the free module.

PteroBill is a module created by OrgPack for the WHMCS software for managing the Pterodactyl panel which is a game server control interface.

PteroBill's feature set is more expansive than the free module as it allows you to carry out a lot more automation for your clientele, provide new services with ease and scale up your operations in a matter of hours.

 
  • Firstly, ports are automated once configured, so if you need to give an MC server more ports for services such as Dynmap and Voting, the client doesn't need to make a ticket on your contact email or Discord, saving significant customer service staff labour answering tickets. This also applies to dedicated IP addresses when you have more than a couple assigned to the dedicated system already sitting idle, waiting for a customer to request for port 25565, again lowering overhead for the client contacting support.
  • Next, the module offers a much easier setup process of new products with dropdown buttons for most common option types, saving many hours of configuration time, getting more products available for your buying clientele.
  • Using the billing interface, they can control the servers they run, so if they only have quick access to billing on their mobile device, they can do it without logging into their panel accounts.

Please do take into consideration that many businesses who use WHMCS for Pterodactyl utilise PteroBill, even Jasmine's hosting service, Jasmeow.Host. Take our advice as it is extremely cheap at $5 a month or $99 one time.
