What differentiates Wave from other similar products?

Wave Accounting is 100% free and offers unlimited billing, accounting and invoicing features.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I don’t use Wave Accounting at workstation, but it’s the main accounting tool that I use to manage and track invoices in my small SEO agency. It has a clean and intuitive user interface, robust backend Integration capability that enables me to connect it with external tools like MS Outlook and Slack.

What do you dislike most about this product?

How on earth can I dislike a program that offers unlimited accounting features for free. However, it doesn’t offer features for global enterprise organizations, but I don’t need it at workstation since we already have Quickbooks Online.

Don’t look back, it is free to create account on Wave Accounting and access accounting features. That way, you will realize high ROI.
