Hello,

I am starting on a company in the software / It Services field. What is the accouting software options which are available.
Are the online accouiting softwares like Quickbooks, as feature rick as Tally.

As I see it I have options like -

  1. Traditional desktop / client server software like Tally or Busy
  2. Online options like Quickbooks which have Indian version
  3. Online Accouting software like Wave, or freshbooks

Can i use generic online accounting software like Wave (https://waveaccounting.com/features/) which is free as such to use. Will it be able to cover compliances for me for Indian operation context.

I would prefer a software which is not limited to Windows platform.

Kindly suggest option, preferably at the free level as initially I do not have much volume of transactions for a year.A

lso consider whether it can be used by a non-finance guy.

Regards.
