Fishbowl alternatives

The best Fishbowl alternatives for small teams.

Fishbowl is a long-standing choice for QuickBooks users. If you want something lighter and fully in the browser, these are the options small teams compare.

Why people look for a Fishbowl alternative

  • They'd rather not install and maintain software on a Windows server.
  • They don't use QuickBooks Desktop, or are moving away from it.
  • They want a monthly price instead of an upfront licence and implementation project.
  • They need simple BOMs and production tracking more than a full ERP.
