As a start up small business, I needed a simple, intuitive and inexpensive free accounting software. At first, I expected the free version to lack some modules or key components to effectively run the program. However, once I started uploading bank transactions and posting some double entry G/L transactions, I realized that this free version is adequate to run my small business. As a contractor, I do not have need for a complex inventory system. All I need is a good quoting and invoicing software that can track my A/P and A/P, along with sales taxes. To my pleasant surprise, I am so grateful that this software is free and has served perfect for my need. I am so happy I can generate well presented report, rather than manually working with spreadsheets. I recommend this software for anyone who is starting up.

I keep getting redirected to a "start a 30 days trial" page of some online book store with no option to bypass it.That whole thing looks like a scam to me.

I can't actually access the app without signing up to Zoho Books which I am not interested in- so App is unusable.

This is probably the best accounting solution for small business/startup business GSuites users. It's easy to use and the integrated payment service is nice touch. There are a few things that could make it better like receipt upload directly from Drive and Sheets/Docs integration, but these things can be filed under the "nice to add..." category. Its team integration could be better. It allows for collaborators, which is great, but collaborator users have limitations. Adding more robust access permissions for multiple users would be helpful. Overall, it's a easy-to-use accounting solution that does what it says.

Really great, free accounting software. You have the option to purchase their accounting or extended support services and use their credit card or bank payment services at comparable rates to other payment services. Plus, you get an online accounting software for free! Matches most of the basic and some extensive functions of small business accounting software. Also offers bank connections for free. Can be a little slow with slower internet connections so recommend to use with a reliable connection.

Why is this not at the top of the category, I'm very impressed with this app, it's robust, easy to use, and most of all there are NO hidden surprises as it is actually free. Love the product, keep up the good work.
