About AkauntingAkaunting
Akaunting is an open-core accounting product: the cloud plans are priced by how many companies, users, invoices and apps you need, and the code can also be deployed on your own server. Standard covers one company, one user plus an accountant, 1,000 invoices and four apps; Premium raises that to ten of each with double-entry, bank feeds and expense claims; Elite adds payroll, projects, inventory and a customer database; Ultimate removes the limits and opens all fifty or more apps.
