What are the best accounting apps for small businesses?

    Full accounting platforms include QuickBooks, Xero, and Wave. For service businesses that mostly need invoicing and basic P&L, Glo Invoice is faster and cheaper.

    If you need full double-entry bookkeeping, payroll, and integrations with dozens of bank feeds, QuickBooks or Xero are the standards.

    If your bookkeeping mostly comes down to 'who owes me money and what did I spend?', Glo Invoice handles invoicing, estimates, payments, expenses, mileage, and a clean P&L without the accounting learning curve.

    Many of our customers use Glo Invoice day-to-day and hand the P&L export to their accountant at tax time.
