Don’t be fooled by Zoho Invoice’s name. This software does much more than send invoices (though you shouldn’t overlook its stellar invoicing features—Zoho Invoice is actually our top pick for billing and invoicing software).

While it’s not quite as fully featured as Zoho Books, Zoho’s accounting-specific product, Zoho Invoice has more than enough features to recommend it—and, obviously, they’re entirely free: 

• Professional, customizable invoices with multi-currency and multi-language support
• Automatic recurring invoicing and customer payment reminders
• Estimates (easily convertible to invoices)
• Expense tracking, receipt scanning, and time tracking

Thanks to its its built-in time tracking (which syncs easily with invoices), estimate-to-invoice conversion, and client portal for straightforward collaboration, Zoho Invoice is ideal for freelancers who frequently collaborate with customers.

With a stellar (and again, free) bookkeeping and invoicing app, it’s also good for freelancers on the go.

If you want more extensive accounting features, Zoho Books has a free plan for businesses with under $50K USD in annual revenue. If that describes your business, we highly recommend adding Zoho Books to your Zoho Invoice plan.

Otherwise, pricing for Zoho Books starts at $15 a month, which makes it a solid alternative to much pricier accounting solutions like QuickBooks Online. But if you’re fine with basic invoicing and transactions, it’s honestly hard to beat Zoho Invoice.
