Invio vs Brevity

These two are priced on opposite units. Brevity charges per client, with every staff member and manager included. Invio Care charges a base price that includes a few workers and then a price per worker, with invoicing and quotes at its centre. So the question is whether you have more clients than workers, or more workers than clients.

We make Invio. Read our side with that in mind. Every statement about Brevity below links to Brevity's own published page.

Each invoice you send, the payments you record and voids appear in your Xero by themselves, so nobody re-keys them. Invio only reads your Xero accounts and tax rates so you can choose where things go; it never copies your Xero data into Invio. Invoices can also be exported as Xero- or MYOB-ready CSV on every plan. Invio does not sync with QuickBooks Online.
