- Your bank matched for you
- Any currency, and your country’s tax built in
What is accounting software?
Accounting software keeps the record of your business's money: what you earned, what you spent, what you owe and what you are owed. It is the thing that answers “did we make a profit?” and “can I pay the supplier on Friday?” — and produces the figures your accountant needs to file.
Most businesses do this after the fact. Bills pile up in a folder, and once a month somebody types them into a system. That is why your numbers are always a few weeks old. With PeppyBooks the entry happens when the work happens — the invoice you send, the payment you take, the stock that leaves, the salary you pay. Each one records itself. Your books are never behind, because nobody has to catch them up.
What changes, business by business
The same books, solving a different problem depending on what you run.
Shop owners
Today: You know the takings, not the profit — and the books arrive weeks late.
With PeppyBooks: Every bill records itself as you sell, so profit and cash are on screen today.
Traders & wholesalers
Today: Money sits with customers and nobody is quite sure how much, or how long.
With PeppyBooks: One screen shows who owes you and for how long, and reminders chase them for you.
Manufacturers
Today: Stock is one system and the books are another, so the two never agree.
With PeppyBooks: Stock movements and payroll record themselves, so your stock value matches your books.
Multi-branch owners
Today: Each branch keeps its own books and merging them takes a week.
With PeppyBooks: Every branch and company on one login — separately, or added together.
Finance managers
Today: Month-end is spent building the numbers instead of reading them.
With PeppyBooks: The statements are already there; your time goes on what they say.
Accountants
Today: Clients hand over a folder of bills that must be typed before anything can be filed.
With PeppyBooks: Your client's entries are already made. You get your own login, and you review and file.
Every transaction posts itself — correctly.
Raise an invoice, pay a bill, receive stock or run payroll and PeppyBooks writes the balanced journal behind it. No manual vouchers, no month-end catch-up — your accounts, trial balance and financials are always live.

Where each is strong: Tally is a genuine strength if you want your books on your own computer, you work without reliable internet, and your accountant already knows it inside out. Zoho Books and QuickBooks are strong cloud accounting products, particularly for service businesses. Your accountant's spreadsheet is exactly right for filing. PeppyBooks is best suited when you want your billing, your stock and your books to be one record, reachable from anywhere. Compiled from each vendor's published information — last verified 17 July 2026. Features and pricing change and vary by country and plan; please check the vendor's current terms before deciding.
Moving your books across
Nobody changes accounting software casually. So you check it before you trust it, and your old system stays exactly where it is.
- 1Keep your current books running
Nothing switches off. Your old system stays exactly where it is.
- 2We bring your masters across
Your accounts, customers, suppliers, items and opening stock — free on annual plans.
- 3We check your opening balances
Against your existing trial balance. If they do not match, you do not go live.
- 4Run one cycle in parallel
Optional, and worth it: run both for a month and compare before you stop the old one.
“Will my balances still tie out?”
That is the whole point of step three. We validate your opening balances against your own trial balance before go-live. If a number does not agree, we fix it first.
“What happens to my history?”
We bring your posted history and open invoices and bills across. You can also keep read-only access to your old system for the archive — many businesses do.
“What will my accountant say?”
Ask them to look. It is proper double-sided bookkeeping with a full trail of every change, and they get their own login. Most prefer reviewing to re-typing.
“When should I switch?”
Pick the start of a month, or the start of your tax year. It keeps your tax periods clean and makes the comparison easy.
Straight answers for finance teams.
Is PeppyBooks real proper two-sided bookkeeping accounting?
Yes. Every transaction posts balanced debits and credits to the general books, with a full trial balance, journals and a tamper-evident audit trail — the way accountants expect.
Do inventory and payroll really post to your books automatically?
Yes. Stock receipts, issues and adjustments post valuation and Cost of sales at real cost, and each payroll run posts a balanced journal — no re-keying between modules.
Can my accountant get access?
Yes. Invite your accountant or auditor with a role-based login so they see the books and reports without touching day-to-day operations.
Which taxes and e-invoicing are supported?
GST, VAT and e-invoicing are built in — including India GST e-invoice and e-way bill, Zambia ZRA, Ghana GRA e-VAT and UAE — cleared as you bill. See the compliance overview.
Can I migrate from Tally, QuickBooks, Xero, Zoho or Sage?
Yes. We import your list of accounts, contacts, items and open balances, checked against your old trial balance. Migration help is free on annual plans.
Is my data exportable?
Always. Export your accounts, reports and documents at any time — your books belong to you, even if you leave.
Give your books a control center.
Set up in minutes, invite your accountant, and watch every invoice, bill, payment and stock move post itself — free for 14 days, every feature unlocked. No card, no sales call.
