Why businesses pick Spheyas
Unlimited users, always
Zoho meters people: one user free, three on Standard, five on Professional, then $3 a head. On Spheyas everyone who touches the books gets a login at no extra cost.
Free does not end at $50,000
Zoho's free plan stops being available once your business passes $50,000 of annual revenue. Spheyas Free has no revenue ceiling — the only limit is 20 finalized documents a month.
Every location included
Premium runs unlimited branches and regions for $29 a month, rather than an add-on billed for each location you operate.
When Zoho Books is the better choice
Spheyas isn't right for everyone. Stay where you are if any of this describes you.
- You need automatic bank feeds and transaction reconciliation — Spheyas does not do those.
- You need multiple currencies, inventory tracking or timesheets and projects.
- You already run Zoho CRM or Zoho One and want everything in one account.
- You want deep workflow automation and a large integration marketplace.
Spheyas is a young product in early access with a deliberately narrower feature set. If you need inventory, multi-currency or the wider Zoho suite, Zoho Books is the better fit today.
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.
