Below is a list of competitive offerings we've identified. If you don't find our solution to meet your needs, check these out. ​
Cloud Based Solutions
  • Quickbooks - $10-60/month  -- view 
    ​     (don't let the 50% off for 3 months fool you...)
  • Freshbooks  - $15-50/month  -- view
  • Sage  $278/year or 431/year  view
​
Desktop Software (not cloud software)
  • Quicken - $34 - $90/year -- view  

Spreadsheet Based Solutions
  • www.smartsheet.com
  • www.simpleplanning.net
The features we have that most do not have all together is a fully customizable chart of accounts with no required accounts, unlimited account types, unlimited account quantity, and automated aggregated checking and credit card account reconciliation (if you do your accounting in arrears from bank statements/downloaded transactions).   Our solution is a fully qualified double entry bookkeeping solution and that then lends itself to preparing things like Balance Sheets and such too.  Freshbooks, for example is not a double entry accounting solution with reconciliation functionality.

The feature(s) we do NOT have in our core offering that you might associate with accounting and value in these solutions the most is invoice generation, tracking and payment processing. As indicated on our homepage and elsewhere, we are offering a bookkeeping solution geared towards your tax accounting first and foremost. In our opinion no additional accounting modules should ever be tied to such systems. If you really liked the invoicing and payment processing of these solutions, I'd suggest continuing to use them, but still use ZAP Accounting for your tax accounting.  As stated elsewhere, much of this additional functionality has been worked out for for google sheets templates, and we may be offering those templates in the future via this website or other websites depending on the success and uptake of this solution.
