Zoho Books has been a great fit for my business because it offers strong accounting tools in a system that is clean, organized, and easy to use. It makes it much simpler to track expenses, manage invoices, and keep records straight without feeling overly complicated, and it gives me the features I need without the higher cost of some other bookkeeping platforms.

With zero accounting experince or knowledge, I dove into Books for my solo service business. I stumbled around for a few months while getting familiar with the interface and processes, but now, I love using this app! Keeps me organized with clean books. Customer support is also reasonable. They always respond and encourage our questions.

I’m trying to get ahead of taxes by actively tracking throughout the year. So far experimenting with the app….. It’s intense but I like it. I can see features that are applicable to other business types but tracking expenses, sending invoices as needed, where I draw money to pay for expenses etc etc, is pretty nicely setup. Nice job with the application.

I would love to see more charts for the reports as well even online on the website as well and it would be nice if you could customize the colors of them instead of blue and orange red green maybe even a yellow for pending on the payments etc green not overdue or paid red overdue on both and yellow payment pending awaiting release would be nice on both the app and web on the main charges for bills and outstanding invoice thanks

We desperately needed our sales team to be mobile. We’ve been chained to our internal server hosting QuickBooks Enterprise for years. While we lose a little functionality (mainly reporting) with Zoho from our current solution, I believe the benefits far outweigh every other online solution on the market. (And, I really think I just need to finish connecting the other apps to add custom solutions to the platform so that all the missing pieces are corrected.) Here’s the programs I compared: QuickBooks Online, Now Commerce, Pepperi, Sales Force, Sage, Big Commerce, Woo Commerce, Shop Keep, Xero, Dear Inventory, Central, Volusion, Solidify, Sales Binder, NetSuite, TradeGecko, and Handshake. Maybe more, but I just searched my notes quickly to list them all. Seriously, it was an exhausting process, and I’m so glad to now have something that our team can invoice from and see customer specific pricing in the field (specific customer, specific items). We don’t really sell online, but I was looking for any solution that would have given them the mobile access they needed, thus the commerce programs in the search above. If you’re moving away from something more robust than, say QuickBooks Online or Xero, definitely opt for the Zoho One version to get the collection of apps that sync together. If you just need the basics, then I believe Zoho Finance would cover you (which includes Zoho Inventory). I’m excited to see how this all works out in the end, but I definitely feel like we made the right choice. Thanks Zoho for a great platform at affordable pricing!

Switched from Quickbooks as they became notorious for holding funds for weeks and months. WOW! This is like Zoho listened to all the user feedback on the Quickbook forums and did what everyone was asking. The best feature is the customer portal and the ability to have a custom url. We get complemented all the time on our quotes and invoices. And can’t leave out we have SALES ORDERS. Something Quickbooks in all their high and mighty wisdom got rid of. We find there is a common theme with Zoho and it’s they just listen to their customers. My only negative would be it takes around 24 hours for bank feeds to update vs Quickbooks is almost live time. Otherwise all together we find Zoho Books to be a much more comprehensive and intuitive accounting software with more features that make your business look professional.
