What are the best bookkeeping apps?

    QuickBooks Online and Xero lead the market for full bookkeeping. For service businesses that mostly need invoicing and a clean P&L, Glo Invoice is faster.

    Full bookkeeping means double-entry, bank reconciliations, and accountant-ready reports. QuickBooks and Xero do this well but have a learning curve.

    Glo Invoice handles the operational side — invoices, payments, expenses, mileage, and a P&L — without the accounting overhead.

    Hand the P&L to your CPA at quarter-end. Most don't need anything more.
