Pros & Cons
Billit
Pros
- Billit is a certified Peppol access point, so Belgian businesses can meet the B2B e-invoicing mandate directly, and Peppol is included in every paid plan.
- Every feature is available on every plan, and only the number of documents sets the price.
- Going over the document limit does not block the account or force an upgrade. Extra documents are billed per document instead.
- The accountant portal is free, so the business and its accountant see the same documents.
- It is built into the KBC banking apps, and new contracts through KBC get the first year free.
Cons
- It does not replace accounting software: there is no general ledger, no financial statements, and no payroll.
- Extra users cost 5 euros a month each.
- Moving from 500 to 1,000 documents raises the price tenfold, from 25 to 250 euros a month.
- Independent user reviews on the major review sites are scarce.
Zoho Books
Pros
- The free plan includes online payments, bank reconciliation, recurring invoices and 1099 tracking for one user plus an accountant.
- Pricing is per organization, not per user, so small teams avoid per-seat costs.
- It connects natively with Zoho CRM, Zoho Payroll, Zoho Inventory and Zoho Analytics.
- Professional and higher plans include custom workflows, custom roles and approvals, and Premium adds custom modules and functions.
- On the Elite plan, inventory features cover warehouses, serial and batch tracking, and marketplace sync.
Cons
- Budgets, multi-currency and advanced inventory are only available on higher-priced tiers.
- Reviewers on Capterra and in NerdWallet's write-up describe slow or unhelpful customer support.
- It has fewer third-party integrations than its main competitors, according to NerdWallet.
- A PeerSpot reviewer found it awkward to invoice the same customer in different currencies.
- Even the top plan has a hard cap of 15 users, plus annual transaction limits.
