Fortnox

Pros

• More than 500 integrations, and one 189 kr licence covers all of them.
• A single platform covers bookkeeping, invoicing, payroll, supplier invoice approval, payments and a company card, which suits Swedish SMEs.
• Accounting firms get a dedicated bureau package for working in their clients' books.
• New companies get six months free, and every new subscription has a 30-day open purchase period.
• Trustpilot and Shopify app reviewers frequently praise customer service and sync reliability.

Cons

• Usage fees for invoices, paid employees and interpretations, plus an Access fee that scales with activity, make total cost hard to predict.
• Three-month agreements cost 15 percent more than the 12-month list prices.
• The product is Swedish-focused, and users have asked for an English interface.
• Some users call the reporting tools dated and say neobank integrations such as Revolut are missing.

Kashoo

Pros

• A single 30 USD monthly plan includes every feature, with unlimited users, invoices and attachments.
• Accountants and staff can be invited at no extra cost, each with their own access level.
• Bank connections use Plaid, so Kashoo never receives your bank credentials, and CSV and OFX imports are also supported.
• Reviewers say non-accountants find it easy to learn, and they praise customer service.

Cons

• It has fewer integrations than larger competitors, which reviewers say made them hesitant to commit.
• Every additional business needs its own subscription, and there is no consolidation across businesses.
• Payroll depends on the third-party PaymentEvolution integration rather than a built-in feature.
• It lacks the advanced accounting features and budgeting tools found in larger suites.
