Comparison

QuickBooks is accounting software. sync.d is built for agencies and freelancers who want to close deals, not do bookkeeping.

sync.d or QuickBooks: the short answer
Choose sync.d if you run client projects and want AI-drafted proposals that clients sign online, GST invoices for Indian clients and client records in one place. Choose QuickBooks if you need a full accounting suite, inventory management or payroll, none of which sync.d includes.

Where QuickBooks is still ahead
We will not pretend sync.d wins on everything. QuickBooks still has the edge on:
Our verdict
QuickBooks is full accounting software, and it is no longer sold in India. sync.d covers the client side of agency work instead: GST invoicing, AI proposals, client records, a client portal, scheduling and team tools.
Switching from QuickBooks? Here is how.
- 1
Export your client list and active invoices from QuickBooks.
- 2
Sign up for sync.d free, brand the workspace, and connect your payment gateway.
- 3
Add your clients, then import past invoices from CSV (rename the columns to match the sync.d import format). Recreate active proposals with the AI proposal generator.
- 4
Move your next client onto the portal and run their project end to end on sync.d.
Which is the right fit for you?
Solo freelancer
You bill 5 to 15 clients a year and want a free plan, or one under $50 a month.
Five person agency
You run 10 to 30 active projects and need project messaging, client portals and AI meeting summaries.
Specific needs
Your work depends on PayPal auto-sync, full accounting suite, inventory management and payroll management, where QuickBooks is stronger.
See it before you switch
sync.d opened to other agencies in 2026, so there are no customer reviews here yet. Book a demo, or run one client through the Free plan before you move off QuickBooks.
Switching from QuickBooks: common questions
Can I import my data from QuickBooks?
Partly. sync.d imports past invoices from a CSV file, so you can export invoices from QuickBooks and rename the columns to match the sync.d import format. Clients are added one at a time, as there is no client CSV import. Active proposals can be recreated with the AI proposal generator.
How long does switching from QuickBooks take?
It depends on how many clients and open invoices you have. The steps are: brand your workspace, connect Google Calendar for meeting booking, add your clients, import past invoices from CSV, and invite clients to the sync.d portal.
What happens to my QuickBooks subscription?
Keep it until the last invoice you sent from QuickBooks is paid, then cancel it. sync.d charges no migration fee, and you can export your monthly invoice report as CSV at any time.
Does sync.d do everything QuickBooks does?
No. QuickBooks is stronger on PayPal auto-sync, full accounting suite, inventory management and payroll management. sync.d does not include bookkeeping, expense tracking, time tracking or payroll. It covers proposals with AI drafting and client signing, GST invoicing, a client portal, meeting booking, project messaging and AI meeting summaries.
Is sync.d cheaper than QuickBooks?
sync.d has a Free plan with monthly limits, Pro at $39 a month for one user, Team at $89 a month for up to 10 users, and Enterprise priced on request. QuickBooks pricing: Free, or $38 to $340/mo; check their site for current prices. Which costs less depends on your team size and the plan you need.
