Rounded vs Freshbooks

It’s mostly a fair fight but Rounded certainly has a few advantages and perks for Australian sole traders and freelancers.

Better value in Australian dollars

Rounded is billed in Australian dollars so you're not at the mercy of exchange rates, which brings our monthly cost well under Freshbooks.

Unlimited clients on all plans

Freshbooks base their pricing on how many clients you have, which we think is a bit stiff! No business is the same so all rounded plans include unlimited clients and invoices.

Local real-time support

Don't wait for the other side of the world to wake up. Our support team operates on Australian business hours and will usually get back to your enquiry within minutes.

DATA MIGRATION

I’ll help bring your Wave data over to Rounded

We know moving systems is a pain, what about all the data you have in Wave? No worries, if you can export your data out as a CSV file we'll do the heavy lifting for you.

invoicing
GET PAID FASTER

Professional invoicing

Getting paid should be the easy part. Rounded creates customised invoices in seconds. Bill in multiple currencies, add taxes like GST and VAT and accept credit card payments online. Rounded will even chase up your clients automatically for overdue payments.

DITCH THE SHOEBOX

Get a grip on your expenses

Business expenses are the easiest way to slash your tax bill but often the hardest to keep organised. Spreadsheets don't work, piles of receipts suck. Rounded's expense tracking makes it ridiculously simple and tax time a breeze.

I love reading and all things grammar! Before I discovered Rounded, my fortnightly invoicing was a real headache and was taking far too much of my time. I have found Rounded to be exceptionally user friendly and the people very approachable, very responsive and keen to assist with any questions that I may have. I highly recommend Rounded.

Rounded has made my life so much easier! Invoicing clients is a breeze and my clients now pay me quickly. Tracking expenses as I go makes tax time way less time consuming. And as a newbie to charging GST, BAS is so simple and pain-free.

I've been using Rounded for just over 12 months now. I was nervous switching over from the free software I was using prior to that, but I needn't have been. I most certainly have seen a return on my investment in terms of time saved with my bookkeeping.

I found Xero far too complicated and expensive for more than 5 invoices per week - Rounded has it all - for just a small yearly fee - instant help online chat, simple user interface and they take suggestions seriously and update the program as they go.

Rounded has streamlined my invoicing, quoting, tax and general accounting – my only regret is that I didn’t hear about this product sooner! Before Rounded I dreaded EOFY, PAYG and every other ATO related acronym that comes with being a sole trader.
