Pros & Cons
poool
Pros
- One system covers offers, projects, time tracking, invoicing and controlling, so agencies can drop several separate tools.
- Support from the Tyrol-based team is unlimited and free on every plan, and OMR reviewers rate support at 96 percent.
- It supports German compliance needs, with XRechnung and ZUGFeRD e-invoicing, GoBD conformity and a DATEV/BMD export.
- ISO 27001 certification and hosting in Europe.
- Reviewers praise the fast stopwatch-based time tracking and the customisable dashboards.
Cons
- The 12-month minimum contract and three-month notice period reduce flexibility.
- Banking integration, the API and multi-tenancy cost extra, and their prices are not published.
- Reviewers report a learning curve and say creating partial invoices from orders is awkward.
- Mobile use is limited, and resource planning views can be unclear.
- It does not replace a full bookkeeping system, because the accounting is exported to DATEV or BMD.
Visionwin
Pros
- The accounting, invoicing and POS programs are free to download and use with no time limit, so you pay only if you want updates or support.
- Spanish tax coverage is broad: SII submission, VAT models 303, 390, 347 and 349, IRPF models 111, 115 and 190, model 130 and model 202, plus Verifactu adaptation.
- Bank reconciliation imports Norma 43 files and automatically matches movements to entries by amount and date.
- You can create as many companies and users as you need, and switch between local and cloud hosting while keeping your data.
- Includes analytical accounting by department or project, and budget accounting with a results forecast.
Cons
- It is a Windows desktop program, so Mac and Linux users must pay for the cloud version.
- The free version has no updates, which is risky as Spanish rules like Verifactu change.
- It is built only for Spain, and technical support is offered only in Spain.
- Integrations are mostly limited to Excel and Visionwin's own modules, with no documented open API or app marketplace.
- Review sites such as Capterra, Appvizer and ComparaSoftware show no user reviews, so there is little independent evidence about quality.
- A third-party review describes the interface as more traditional than modern SaaS tools and says setup can involve several components.
