SOFTWARE COSTS · 12 VENDORS · RE-CHECKED WEEKLY
What software for accounting and bookkeeping firms actually costs, by what the vendors publish.
Many practice-management tools are quote-only. This index says which ones publish prices and which don't, with the plans, trial and contract terms each vendor's own page shows, read on a stated date. Third-party estimates are marked as such; none is presented as a price.

Every figure is read from the vendor's own pricing page and carries the date. Third-party numbers appear only in a box that says who reported them and when. A routine fetches each vendor page every week and flags any change, so a stale figure is re-verified rather than left standing. There are no affiliate links on these pages.
