DigiBoox or booxx?

DigiBoox — formerly DigiBTW — aims at the freelancer and does something not every package does: your income tax return sits inside the same package. The difference is language, and how deep the bookkeeping goes.

Short answer

DigiBoox is a Dutch bookkeeping package aimed at freelancers, formerly DigiBTW, with a free plan for invoicing only and a complete plan at €15 a month on an annual subscription, a 30-day free trial and apps for iOS and Android. It is the only one of the five that states no cap on your number of entries, and you can hire a bookkeeper alongside it for €66 a month. For the income tax return it has its own step-by-step wizard; filing that return costs €130 (€210 together with your tax partner). The only language DigiBoox states is Dutch, in a Dutch and a Belgian edition. The booxx package costs €19 a month and works in five languages — Dutch, English, Polish, Hungarian and Romanian — down to the ledger accounts and the outgoing email. If you are a freelancer, read Dutch comfortably and only want to invoice without paying for it, DigiBoox is cheaper and more direct; if you do not read Dutch, that is where it stops. DigiBoox also keeps the books of a private limited company (bv), but does not mention annual accounts or a KvK filing file. If you want to switch, you import your audit file (XAF) here.

MoneyMonk

Built around time tracking and projects, for freelancers who sell hours. The price hangs on your annual turnover and, on the three cheaper plans, also on the number of bank transactions.

eFaktura.nl

Not a bookkeeping package but an invoicing app — and one that does speak Polish, Hungarian and Romanian. It does not mention bookkeeping: you share invoices and expenses with your bookkeeper.

booxx

The package booxx has two plans: Standard (€19 a month, everything included, with VAT returns and automatic bank reconciliation) and Dormant (€4 a month, read-only for a set of books that is temporarily dormant). You start with a 90-day trial of the full product, with no payment method up front; nothing is charged during that period, so there is nothing to cancel. All amounts are per set of books per month, excluding VAT, and cancellable monthly. There are no setup fees. Standard has no limits at all: unlimited invoices, entries and bank transactions, and unlimited users — colleagues and your accountant work alongside you at no extra cost.

Pricing

Accounting software that speaks your language

Five languages, and not just in the menus: the ledger accounts, the guidance on every VAT box and your invoices are in the language you read. The bookkeeping underneath stays Dutch, because the rules are.

In your language

Everything a Dutch set of books needs

From your first invoice to annual accounts that balance. No separate modules you have to buy later just to close your year.

Questions about switching

Can I bring my bookkeeping with me if I switch?

Yes. Every Dutch accounting package can produce an audit file (XAF) — that's a legal requirement. You import it here, including your chart of accounts, your entries and your open items.

Can I switch halfway through the year?

Yes. You pick a start date, import your audit file or your opening balance, and post here from that point on. The periods you've already filed with your previous package stay there.

Will my bookkeeper work with this?

They can see your books if you let them in, and they get the audit file in the format they're used to. If they'd rather work in their own package, that audit file is exactly what they need.

Why do you name your competitors?

Because you're going to compare anyway, and because we aren't better on every point. Above, per package, you'll find when you're better off there. That's fairer, and it saves you a month of trying things out.
