Honest comparison

Printer's Friend vs QuickBooks

Accounting, not shop management. Here's how we stack up.

Keep your accounting software. Add Printer's Friend for everything that happens before the invoice.

Accounting software tells you what happened after the fact. It does not quote a job, schedule a press or hold an artwork approval. Printer's Friend runs the job and syncs the invoice into QuickBooks or Xero so the books stay where your accountant wants them.

On pricing

We publish our own pricing on the pricing page, in your currency. We do not quote QuickBooks's numbers here, because we have not verified them recently and a stale figure is worse than none .

When QuickBooks is the better choice

If your only unmet need is bookkeeping, you do not need shop software yet.
