Pros & Cons
AADDISON
Pros
- Covers German compliance in depth, including GoBD-oriented immutable records, ELSTER E-Bilanz filing, and ZUGFeRD and XRechnung e-invoice processing.
- Combines financial accounting, cost accounting, fixed assets, payroll and controlling in one suite, so data is entered once.
- Converts DATEV batch and journal data in both directions, which helps firms that work with DATEV-using partners.
- You can install it on your own servers or run it in the ADDISON Business Cloud on German data centers.
- A large installed base of about 14,000 installations, plus a hotline included in the price.
Cons
- No public pricing, so buyers must request a quote.
- No publicly documented REST API. Integration relies mostly on file exchange, partner connectors or middleware.
- Some connectors and export tools need separate licenses, which can add unplanned costs.
- It is built around German tax law, which limits its use outside the DACH region.
- Very few public user reviews; OMR lists only one.
Ee-conomic
Pros
- Free outside access for an accountant or bookkeeper on every plan, which suits the Danish accountant-led market.
- Integrations with inventory systems, webshops and payroll, plus an open REST API with webhooks, which were added in 2026.
- Scales by posting volume from 1,000 up to 800,000 postings a year, with modules added as needs grow.
- Available in Danish, Norwegian, Swedish and English, where Dinero is Danish only.
- Smart and Komplet plans include a built-in Firmakort company card and bank and receipt automation.
Cons
- No free plan, and prices rise with posting volume and paid modules.
- The Basis plan leaves out reminders, quotes, subscription invoicing and full API access.
- Payroll needs a separate product such as Danløn connected through an integration.
- Some users and competitors describe the system as heavy or complex for very small businesses.
- Phone support is limited to weekday office hours, ending at 15:00 Monday to Thursday and 14:00 on Friday.
