Accounting Seed vs. Kashoo

Accounting Seed is a great solution for businesses looking for reliable accounting software. It offers all the features needed and works as expected. In addition, it is not as pricey as many competitors and therefore a great choice. I would recommend it for both startups and established businesses.

It is great for a small company or sole proprietorship. It is simple and easy and allows you to do your bookkeeping without taking too much of your time. It would not be ideal for a company that needs to track inventory.

• When making a deposit for a donation we can tag the account record.
• Anyone can recognize donors that are also vendors.
• Extracting general ledger detail is accurate and easy - allowing us to ensure the GL matches revenue detail from donations, box office and education.
• Budgeting is actually pretty nimble now that I am using it more.

• Mobile app for scanning expenses.
• Straight to the point actions.
• Clean user interface (better than the QuickBooks icons!).
• Importing bank transactions with no upcharge.
• Receive credit card payments with no credit check.

• Sometimes when creating a receipt it can't seem to find the company I am searching for in the drop-down, I have to go out to the company and enter from there.
• Some of the accounting reports seem to be limited, though at times this may just be the user! Still learning as I go! But there have been some reports that state I would need to add another partner app to do, which would mean more cost.

• The UI is not nice at all - even with a UI refresh, it still didn't look that great
• The UX is rough as well - it's not as easy to use until you get used to it - high learning curve

Accounting Seed was easy to implement and use without third-party service providers' intervention. Furthermore, the vendor forwarded us a copy of articles and documentation on implementation, customization and integration, which made it much easier for us to integrate it with company API and other external programs.

Kashoo is by far the most intuitive and easy to use accounting/bookkeeping solution I've tried, and after using it for several years I'm pleased that it delivers a consistent experience. No surprises, it just works. I don't want to spend any more time than I have to attend to bookkeeping, and Kashoo allows me to do just that.

We seldom have had to use their support but when we have, they have been responsive and actually were able to answer our questions in a simple, nontech language. You don't have to be a programmer to talk to them!

They were not helpful in resolving my issue on the change to my lifetime deal, and I am not happy with their support. They didn't care at all

I have never used Xero at my current organization, but I used it at Alliance Data before Implementing Accounting Seed. Xero wasn’t updated much during the years that we were using it. Also, Xero failed to integrate with some of third-party applications that we were using. Finally, Accounting Seed was highly navigable, had clean UI/UX unlike Xero.

Wave Accounting has the UI and UX down perfectly. Their reporting is nice as well, but I felt like things were a little more customizable in Kashoo, so they have the upper hand there.
