Comprehensive and friendly-user accounting platform

Very pleasant experience! It takes only a few minutes to grasp the platform and onboarding process is helpful.

Pros

All the accounting business needs for invoicing and billing in one solution. It is the most user-friendly and comprehensive accounting platform I have used. The available integrations of Zoho Books enable a lot of ease for sending and tracking quotes and invoices.

Cons

It is a great platform overall. The user interface is smooth and fast overall. If the UI elements like the menu were improved even further it would make the user experience even better.

A great tool to use

I use Zoho Books daily to issue invoices for my clients. I´ve created my data base and from there, I create the invoices, record payments, set payment reminders, and create some reports to keep my AP well organized.

Pros

It is quite intuitive and well-organized. I like that you can easily find the customer and jump from one place to another.
Also, it is customizable, for example, it helps me a lot to set payment reminders for my clients.

Cons

There are some limitations in terms of reporting. If you want to see old data, you can´t do it, and that´s a bit annoying.
In addition, the currency exchange rates sometimes are not accurate.

Zoho Books; Making sales process efficient and easy

I have loved working with Zoho since it make my work life very simple, turning a quotation to an invoice is all a matter of just clicking a button

Pros

The fact that I can create a quotation and send it directly from zoho without having to download then create an email and attach it

Cons

The fact that you can not edit customer details when you are invoice such as changing the name if it was a quotation.
