QuickBooks
QuickBooks puts you in control of your finances, your time, your business—and where you work. From setup to support, QuickBooks makes your accounting easy. With simple tools to get you started, free support, and a money-back guarantee, QuickBooks is the effortless choice.

Both Billings Pro and QuickBooks are what one might call "mighty fine tools" for managing the unfathomable chaos of business finances. They're like your trusty towel in a world where spreadsheets and invoices roam free. Both allow you to create and send invoices at the speed of light (or at least at the speed of the Internet), track your expenses and generally keep the monetary mayhem from spiraling out of control. They can also hook up with other software—because, let’s face it, in this digital age, everything needs to talk to everything else.

But while QuickBooks is something of a cosmic giant, capable of helping everything from the smallest shopkeeper to the largest corporation, Billings Pro is like the specialized, sleek spacecraft designed for freelancers and small businesses. It arrived in 2010 and was crafted by the folks at BQE Software in the USA, giving it a slightly more "we know what freelancers need" vibe. Its unique selling point is its superhuman ability to track time and bill for it, which is a bit like having a TARDIS for project management.

QuickBooks, on the other hand, has been galloping along since 1983, birthed by the good folks at Intuit in the USA and is geared up for businesses of all shapes and sizes. Whether you’re managing payroll, inventory, taxes or simply trying to keep your sanity intact, QuickBooks has it covered with an impressive array of features. It’s a bit like having a personal accountant who never sleeps, never eats and is always on the job—even if it might not be quite as clever as your average Vogon.
