### "Good Invoicing Platform for Small Business"

November 24, 2025

4.0

Apart from the this that I dislike from Zoho Invoice, there is not much I can disagree with the program. It really works with several users at the same time, it updates very quickly and managed communication with the clients.

Pros

I like Zoho because it helps us in the invoicing of our small firm, we can make recurring invoices, charge to clients, and they can make payments through the invoice or portal.

Cons

What I don’t like so much about Zoho is that it can be very difficult to have a perfect accounting of invoices and revenues. As we divide revenues in three categories, but have almost 60 items. I made this a little easier by making a custom field that says Category and have a help text with the available options. But its still a job to reconciliate monthly. Some invoices that are made from timing instead from an item, are not revealed in this view. Also, invoices made to reimburse expenses made, appears as revenue in the sales report.

April 24, 2026

4.0

Pros

It is a great free tool that makes it super easy to send invoices and collect payments together in one place

Cons

The inability to use different currencies without upgrading to a higher paying account. I'd rather use something else

### "Good for the most part "

March 17, 2026

3.0

Overall good but something more simpified would be great. It served the purpose to track reciepts but we ended up switching.

Pros

Pricing was compedative and you were able to use a lot of functions but there was a learning curve if youve never used it before.

Cons

There were so man options and pages it was hard to navigate. I think they could work on somthign more user friendly.

### "Zoho Invoice easiest to use and inexpensive"

January 12, 2026

5.0

Overall Zoho invoice works perfectly with Zoho CRM which our company also uses. We have tried other programs that can take client's payments that work with our payment system, but still use zoho invoice so the client's can understand their invoice.

Pros

Zoho invoice has been my company's invoice system for over 10 years. It is inexpensive, user friendly and our clients find it the best option we have sampled for being detailed

Cons

The major con currently with zoho invoice is that we have been unable to integrate a payment system and so we are having to use another program just for that purpose. The other system also has an itinerary built into it as well. We have CRM and Invoice integrated but it does not always sync up quickly.

Alternatives considered

[WeTravel](https://www.capterra.com/p/163474/WeTravel/)

Reason for choosing Zoho Invoice

We actually use both. Wetravel is used for the itinerary it creates and for taking payments whereas Zoho Invoice works with our CRM, is least expensive and has the best invoice for our guests.

### "Easy, Quick and Useful!"

October 2, 2025

5.0

It was a good experience using the Zoho Invoice product. I've found a nice liking to simplicity of the Zoho products and their Invoice system continues with that.

Pros

I like the simplicity of using Zoho Invoice. It allows me to quickly put together an invoice for a client without much hassle. In the Free tier, you get a good amount of features that allow you to get the job done. I like the fact it's secure by 2FA for the signing.

Cons

I found it a little tricky to work out how to set up the payments part, especially if I wasn't using a payment gateway, and wanted to provide transfer details directly. Although after some time looking around, I managed to get it figured out.

### "Excellent fully customisable design"

March 17, 2025

5.0

The best company run by the most competent and compassionate people in the world. They have done more for my business than any one else and help me to get paid in full on time and to see what is not working in my business through expense and days to get paid tracking features - enabling me to make strategic decisions too.

Pros

Simple, high level of functionality, free for first 1000 invoices, genuinely supporting small businesses, excellent demos by staff online in India.

Cons

Not enough people know how great it is. I wish it was a standard part of all small business training and the endless business podcasts by bankrolled people who do not understand what starting from scratch really means.

Both horribly complex and not user friendly. They also took hours to set up even for the trial run. This was ready within an hour to act as the front end for the admin for my business.

### "Great product, hard to believe it is free!"

July 2, 2025

5.0

Pros

It is free, that makes it pretty amazing. But it is also easy to set up, incredibly customizable, and endlessly connected.

Cons

The upload process is very complex due to tax codes, item codes, etc. It is pretty difficult to bulk upload invoice details (at least for me and I am pretty tech savvy). I have ended up just choosing to manually enter invoice data to save time messing with bulk uploads that get nowhere.

Authorize.net invoice option is very limited and although it is free with our authorize.net usage account, Zoho Invoice is also free and way easier to use with exponentially more abundant and better features.

### "If you can login, it's good"

June 30, 2025

3.0

The worst customer support. Leaves me so frustrated and never helps me. Zoho implemented OneAuth that doesn't work so every month when I go to login & send invoices, I can't. I have to call and/or email customer support but nothing happens. I end up having to send out my invoices late. Makes me look very unprofessional.

Pros

Free invoicing which is great since I'm a small business. Easy to get setup and send invoices and add my logo.

Cons

Zoho implemented OneAuth that doesn't work so every month when I go to login & send invoices I can't

### "Great small business/Startup invoicing solution"

September 11, 2024

4.0

Easy to use once you're signed up. It's one of the very few cloud applications I use (I'm an on-prem dinosaur for most things) and I appreciate the convenience of anywhere-invoicing for my small business. I do also appreciate the nearly-direct line to product development. I've offered a couple of feature requests and am happy to note that one of them showed up a few months ago. Thanks, Zoho!

Pros

Simplicity and efficiency of the user interface.

Cons

The integrations with other Zoho apps are fine for customers that have standardized on their cloud suite, but the lack of 3rd party integrations (or even an API we could code our own to) make it unwieldy for anyone with more than a few dozen customers. While it's certainly to be expected from a totally-free application, I get a little irritated with the marketing for other Zoho products. Maybe they could tone it down a little for users of other Zoho paid products, like me.

### "Invoicing made easier"

December 23, 2025

5.0

Pros

Zoho invoice is free of charge and it's easy to use the pre made template to create invoce and receipts. Easy add on fields and it allows to state the payment method used.

Cons

It's not complicated like other similar tools and it requires no training to use. It's intuitive and no comments.

### "A simple and effective invoicing tool."

February 16, 2025

5.0

Reporting through Zoho Invoice has simplified the invoicing and payment tracking process. I used it to streamline billing for several clients I worked with, and its centralized dashboard provided me with a bird’s eye view of outstanding payments. It’s a good tool for freelancers and small businesses.

Pros

Zoho Invoice makes it super easy to create and send professional invoices. I used it to bill clients on a freelance project, for example, and the automatic payment reminders kept me up-to-date on getting paid. Having the option to accept online payments is a great convenience.

Cons

It’s good for very basic invoicing, but is missing some advanced features in Zoho Books, like inventory management or extensive financial reporting. The Invoicing template customization options are also to an extend limited.

### "Great invoicing software!"

March 12, 2025

5.0

I use Zoho Invoice to create digital invoices for our records. It was a bit of an involved and timely process to get my first invoice set up and designed just right, but once the template was in the system, it is so incredibly easy to use. We have standard items we charge the same amount for every time, but Zoho also allows the ability to enter custom services and charges. I also love the level of customization regarding color scheme, logo, etc.

Pros

I really like the customization on the invoices. I was able to upload my logo and change the color scheme of the invoice to match the logo, which gives my invoices a much more professional feel. I also like that it's easy to input any sort of custom information on the invoices or have default services that automatically create an invoice.

Cons

I wish some parts regarding layout and design were a bit more customizable - while there is a lot of freedom to add custom fields, etc, I would love the ability to play with the order of the sections or the layout of the invoice itself.

### "Zoho invoice "

November 4, 2024

5.0

Pros

It provides a clean, user-friendly interface that makes creating and sending professional invoices simple and efficient. Users appreciate the automation options, like recurring invoices and payment

Cons

integration with non-Zoho applications is somewhat limited, so businesses that rely on a variety of third-party tools may find it challenging to streamline workflows across platforms.

March 11, 2025

5.0

I am very happy to use this software for my quotes and billing needs.

Pros

It is very user friendly and has all the features to make your life simpler. Your customer support is also very prompt and good.

Cons

So far I cannot find a fault with it. Maybe the only thing I could think of is to make access to settings a little easier and more user friendly. Some features are hiding and cannot be found easily.

### "Zoho Invoice is Great!"

September 12, 2024

5.0

Zoho Invoice has been a great asset to our business. They're the way to go if you want an invoice platform with a almost seamless interface, without paying top dollar.

Pros

Zoho Invoice makes it easy to craft all different types of invoices for my clients. This platform also gives detailed analytics of the invoices, including who's paid and who hasn't paid. On top of everything, this platform is free to use and is on par if not better than similar paid platforms due to the wide array of customization and other features. What's also helpful is the fact that I can craft invoices in different languages. Our restaurant gets a lot of Japanese foreigners so this is a great help.

Cons

There have been times in the past when the platform would experiences glitches, including not being able to sign in.

I haven't managed to explore all the options yet and so far my experience has been great. In general, the system is very easy to navigate and create Invoices. Document control is easy and quick to consult.

Pros

Simple, objective and fully customizable. My invoices are in a professional format. Menu and navigation structure are very clear

Cons

View the Invoice in its actual format before issuing the PDF for verification. This anticipates seeing the print format and speeds up the task.

### "Zoho Invoice helping new businesses"

November 15, 2024

5.0

Smooth, efficient and clear. The fields are particular so there's no time for confusion while looking for the blank.

Pros

It's very friendly. There are no extra lines to click, and it is not overwhelming, like Zoho CRM. With this one, Zoho Invoice, I can do an invoice in less than 5 minutes. And the best it's that is free! So, kudos to Zoho for helping new businesses.

Cons

I have to input the information about the clients, but it would be pointless without it. Overall, I'm not complaining about Zoho Invoice.
