Pros & Cons

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.

Q
QuickBooks Desktop

Pros

  • Handles up to 1 million list entries and up to 40 users, more than most small-business accounting tools.
  • Platinum's advanced inventory adds bin locations, barcode scanning, FIFO costing and serial or lot tracking for distributors and manufacturers.
  • Over 200 customizable reports and more than 115 user permission settings give detailed control.
  • Intuit says Desktop 2024 has no sunset deadline, which gives renewing users some stability.

Cons

  • New Pro Plus and Premier Plus subscriptions are no longer sold, so only the costly Enterprise edition is open to new buyers.
  • Prices keep rising, and per-employee payroll fees on Gold and Platinum make renewal costs hard to predict.
  • As a desktop application, it needs paid hosting for remote access.
  • Some G2 reviewers report crashes and difficulty reaching direct support.
