Pros & Cons

A
ADDISON

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.

Evoliz

Pros

  • Low entry price: 29 euros a month excluding VAT, with unlimited quotes and invoices.
  • An accountant seat is included free on every plan, along with journal and trial balance exports.
  • NF203 and NF525 certifications, data hosted in France, and an approved e-invoicing platform through Chaintrust by Visma.
  • Built-in online payment through Stripe, PayPal, GoCardless, Payzen and Payplug.
  • Reviewers and Google ratings describe support as responsive, with chat and email included.

Cons

  • It is pre-accounting only: there are no annual accounts and no pre-filled VAT return.
  • Recurring invoices and automatic reminders are only in the 49 euro Avancée plan.
  • Reviewers find the design dated, and some modules are less intuitive than others.
  • The first setup is reported to take a long time.
  • It is aimed at French businesses and does not suit large companies.
