A Wave alternative with clients built in.
Shopping for a Wave alternative? Most either charge for basic accounting or, like Wave, stop at the books. BuddyWorkflow keeps bookkeeping and invoicing free forever and adds the client CRM, contracts and marketing analytics Wave doesn't have.
Why switch from Wave
Wave is a fine free ledger, but the moment you need to track leads, send a contract or see which channel brings paying clients, you're back to juggling extra apps. A better alternative keeps the free books and adds the client and marketing side.
Still free where it counts
BuddyWorkflow keeps bookkeeping and invoicing free forever — you don't trade Wave's price for a monthly bill just to get a CRM. Pro adds pipeline, custom branding and marketing analytics.
Switching is quick
Export your data from Wave, import clients and history from a CSV in minutes, and connect your bank for automatic bookkeeping — all in one login.
Common questions
Free books, plus the clients Wave leaves out.
Free forever for your books. We pass Stripe's real processing cost straight through — never marking up the rate the way others keep the spread — and Pro removes our fee entirely.
