Why businesses pick Spheyas

The invoice list in Spheyas, showing invoice numbers, customers, dates, amounts and payment status.

Unlimited users, always

QuickBooks meters people: one user on Simple Start, five on Plus. On Spheyas your bookkeeper, partner and assistant all get logins on the free plan.

A free plan that does real work

20 finalized documents a month, full invoicing and accounting, and the customer portal — not a 30-day trial that expires.

Every location included

Premium runs unlimited branches and regions for $29 a month. QuickBooks only starts tracking locations on Plus at $115 a month, and caps it at 40 until Advanced.

When QuickBooks is the better choice

Spheyas isn't right for everyone. Stay where you are if any of this describes you.

  • You need US payroll, tax filing or automatic bank feeds built in — Spheyas does not do those.
  • Your accountant works only in QuickBooks and will not move.
  • You depend on its large ecosystem of third-party integrations.
  • You need a long track record and deep audit tooling for a larger finance team.

Spheyas is a young product in early access. If you need a mature all-in-one finance suite today, QuickBooks is the safer pick — we would rather tell you now than have you find out after switching.

Try it on your own books

The free plan doesn't expire and never asks for a card. Paid plans carry a 30-day money-back guarantee on your first payment.
