What to watch for
- The paid plans advertise 50% off for the first 3 months, so the regular monthly price is the struck-through one: $38 for Simple Start.
- The free plan has no accountant access. It was read through a page summary, not the raw page, so check it before relying on it.
- Class tracking for funds is tied to the Plus or Advanced plan, and Intuit's own article does not spell out the plan requirement in a sentence.
- The TechSoup subscription is one per organization for life, excludes add-ons such as Payroll, and comes with an annual renewal fee.
