La vraie différence
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Akaunting stands out with Open source accounting and Multi-company support. Zoho Books counters with Automated bank feeds and Project time tracking.
Akaunting's Achilles heel: self-hosting requires technical skills — and the free core is limited without buying premium app extensions. Zoho Books's: part of the zoho sprawl — powerful alone, but you’ll get upsold into 50 other zoho products constantly. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Le verdict
If you value open source accounting and les petites boîtes tech-savvy, go with Akaunting. If les petites boîtes déjà matters more, Zoho Books is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
