A diferença real
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Wave stands out with Free invoicing and accounting and Receipt scanning. Zoho Books counters with Automated bank feeds and Project time tracking.
Wave's Achilles heel: no inventory tracking, no project costing, no time tracking — you get what you pay for (nothing). 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.
Conclusão
If you value free invoicing and accounting and solopreneurs e micro negócios, go with Wave. If pequenos negócios já no matters more, Zoho Books is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
