VT cashbook is free and very good but for someone running an Ebay shop I'd highly recommend a package that imports data from PayPal it generally saves a huge amount of time. You have lots of choice but I particularly like Accounts Portal. The small cost will probably pay for itself many times over.

We use Payroo.com that is free as long as you are a small company. Works very well.

Hi William - isnt that just payroll software?

 

[WilliamH]

Ha ha. Sorry, yes. Not sure what I was thinking. Entirely the wrong thing.

If someone needs a free pay roll tool though....

I use acemoney. From memory I paid about £12 for a 12 month licence. I find it really easy to use

Well I needed a free payroll software and I got it.

Hiya

I know you're looking for free and don't let the site design put you off, but thought I'd mention DIY Accounting, they have a book keeping package that my Dad swears on and costs next to nothing

If you want something completely free try bright books. It's online software too which means that you can access it from anywhere. I recommend it to all my clients who don't want to pay. On the downside it is basic, like others I think you should get one you pay for. They don't cost much, I always use online software and my favourite at the moment is Clearbooks.

Hope that helps.

I've been thinking of giving this one a go, which promises to be always free:

Anyone here tried it?

I usually recommend Bright Book (https://mybrightbook.com/) if someone is looking for free software.

It's very basic but does have the advantage that it's easy to use if you're not an accountant.

Good luck!

It seems to be American. That means that it won't handle VAT (which might not be an issue now) but it might have other US only features that may be irrelevant. The terminology will also be American - no bad thing in many cases as Payables and Receiveables are more meaningful than debtors and creditors, But what do they mean by stock? Inventory? just to name a couple.
