free invoicing site alternative to SlickPie

[RaspberryCoulis]

Have been using Slick Pie for my invoicing for a couple of years - but apparently they're closing down. Can anyone recommend a free alternative? Don't need anything fancy, just somewhere I can log in, raise invoices, mark them as paid.

Don't need the cashflow forecasts, graphs or anything sophisticated.

Oh crap, are they really? Thanks for the heads up - no advice, obviously! But following.

[RaspberryCoulis]

If you click on the "sign up" button by accident rather than "log in" as I just did, there's a pop up saying

"As informed in 2020, SlickPie will be ending its services. All the services will be officially shut down on March 31, 2021. If you need any assistance, please contact us."

I don't remember being informed, mind you.

[PlatinumBrunette]

Hmm, I had no email about that, either 😡

[PlatinumBrunette]

I’m looking through this site right now. www.smallbizgenius.net/free-accounting-software/
Need to delve deeper, but I thought I’d share if it”s helpful to you. Everything offers something different.

@RaspberryCoulis So, I emailed them. Got a 'You must have missed our email' response with a screenshot to 'prove' they sent one... Hopefully attached.

Then this was added below, which may help you transfer the details:

"The date however has been extended to Mar 31, 2021. Currently we are helping our users getting the data from SlickPie so they can move to a new accounting software. If you would like to get the data please add [email protected] as an Advisor to your company account by following the instructions at slickpie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/203923112-Add-a-New-User .

Also provide us below information:

1. SlickPie Login ID
   
2. Business Name
   
   Once above is done, we will be able to send the following data within few days.
   

1. Customers/ Vendors
   
2. List of Invoices/ Bills
   
3. Chart of Accounts
   
4. General Ledger
   
   Thanks
   Team SlickPie"
   
   Ugh.
   
   Thank you @FTMF30 That was top of the list of ones to investigate further.

Wave are no longer operating outside of North America. I've switched to Invoice Ninja

[PlatinumBrunette]

Nnnnngggg! Thank you @Velocity
I've just spent the last hour getting info off Slickpie ready for whatever's next. At this point, I guess I should be thankful I have no clients right now...

This is a great free invoicing site mybrightbook.com/

[PlatinumBrunette]

That site makes my eyes hurt, sorry @Chade
Couldn't work there without getting a migraine very quickly!

[Chade]

Because of the pink? Once you set up an account you can change the colour scheme. I have black at the moment

[RaspberryCoulis]

Just coming back to this as I have dragged my heels over signing up with other sites.... I think I'll go with Brightbook as it's UK based.

such a pain though.

I’ve been using gimbla.com for 4 months now and it’s great so far. Free accounting software that’s really simple to use.

If you have a NatWest business bank account you get FreeAgent for free & it’s very good.
