Wave Alternative
Qyri brings customers, quotes, invoices, inventory, purchasing and accounting into one connected workspace.
Wave is a free accounting and invoicing platform popular with freelancers and very small businesses. Its core accounting and invoicing features are free, with revenue from payment processing fees. But Wave has no CRM, no inventory management and limited functionality for growing businesses.
Why businesses consider switching:
Businesses outgrow Wave when they need CRM to manage leads, inventory to track stock, or team collaboration features. The free model also means limited support and slower feature development.
How Qyri is different:
Qyri provides the accounting and invoicing that growing businesses need, plus built-in CRM, inventory management and purchasing — all without transaction fees.
No CRM
Wave has no CRM capabilities. Managing leads and sales pipelines requires a separate tool.
No inventory
Wave does not support inventory tracking. Product-based businesses cannot manage stock.
Payment processing fees
Wave makes money on payment processing. Credit card fees can add up significantly for businesses with regular transactions.
Limited support
Support is limited for free users. Phone and priority support require paid plans.
CRM, inventory and accounting in one platform
Qyri replaces Wave plus separate CRM and inventory tools with one workspace.
No transaction fees
Qyri's pricing is all-inclusive. No per-transaction fees eating into your margins.
Team collaboration
Role-based permissions for your whole team. Wave is designed for solo users.
Connected workflows
Data flows automatically between CRM, sales, inventory and accounting.
