Zoho Books

Tier S ยท Published prices

Global cloud accounting from Zoho with published USD prices; no Jordan edition or JoFotara link listed

Zoho Books is cloud accounting from Zoho covering invoicing, bookkeeping, bank reconciliation and, from the Professional plan, timesheet billing and project profitability. Zoho lists no Jordan edition, so Jordanian firms would use the global version, which Zoho says to evaluate for local compliance before use. Zoho's site names no integration with Jordan's national e-invoicing system (JoFotara).

Pros

  • + Published USD prices and a free plan for small revenue
  • + Up to 1,000 invoices a year on the free plan
  • + Timesheet billing and project profitability from the Professional plan
  • + 14-day free trial

Cons

  • โˆ’ No Jordan edition; the global version needs a local compliance check
  • โˆ’ No JoFotara integration named by Zoho
  • โˆ’ Accounting, not construction management
  • โˆ’ Priced in USD, not JOD

Jordan note

Zoho has no Jordan edition and names no JoFotara integration. If you must issue e-invoices through Jordan's Income and Sales Tax Department system, confirm how you will do it (a separate integration service or ISTD's own tools) before choosing Zoho Books.

Typical Jordan pricing: Published in USD on Zoho's global pricing page, per organization per month: billed annually Standard $10 (3 users), Professional $20 (5 users), Premium $30 (10 users), Elite $100 (10 users), Ultimate $200 (15 users); billed monthly $12, $24, $36, $129 and $249.
