Pros & Cons

e-Boekhouden.nl

Pros

  • Very low price: the ZZP plan is 9.95 euro a month, and starters get 15 months free from KVK registration
  • Built for Dutch bookkeeping, with VAT and OSS handling and PSD2 bank feeds
  • A separate accountant version makes it easy to work with a bookkeeper
  • Wide set of modules, including inventory, time tracking, membership administration and document recognition

Cons

  • The interface is described as dated in independent comparisons
  • The ZZP plan is capped at 240 bookings a year, and Standaard leaves out invoicing unless you pay for the higher plan
  • Limited multi-currency support, and Peppol e-invoicing reportedly needs an add-on
  • Few independent reviews: G2 and Software Advice list none or almost none
