The best thing that has happened to me is the ease with which I can now complete all accounting activities with Zoho Books. To be honest, I dislike accounting because of the amount of number management that is needed. It has, however using Zoho Books makes things lot simpler to do. For creating accounts receivable, it has been my savior because it is incredibly safe and you can be sure that the data you enter won't be compromised.
Pros
One of the easiest interfaces for creating estimates and invoices is Zoho Books. It gives enterprises flexibility by enabling the creation of estimates with and without GST. The main benefit is that it offers a range of plans at reasonable prices to accommodate diverse business needs.
Cons
Reports and invoice customisation in Zoho Books is limited. While integrating Zoho Book with other ZOHO apps is simple, doing so with other apps can be difficult. Data migration is quite difficult for businesses with a lot of data.
