The short version

We test the software we write about and we report what we find, but we are reviewers, not your accountant, lawyer or IT department. Software pricing and features change constantly, so check the vendor’s own site before you buy. Our verdicts are informed opinions, not guarantees, and what worked in our test setup may behave differently in your business.

1.General information only

Everything published on thesoftwarescribe.com is general editorial information about business software. It is written for a broad readership and takes no account of your business, your industry, your jurisdiction or your circumstances.

We publish in good faith and we work to make every article accurate on the day it goes live. We give no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, reliability or suitability of anything on the site.

2.Not professional advice

Nothing on this site is financial, accounting, tax, legal, investment or professional advice, and nothing here creates a professional relationship between you and us.

We review accounting, bookkeeping, invoicing and payroll software. Writing about a tool that handles your books is not the same as advising you on your books. Questions about how to record a transaction, what you owe, how to file a return, or whether a product satisfies a regulation that applies to you should go to a qualified accountant, tax professional or lawyer in your own country.

Compliance requirements differ between countries and change over time. We do not verify that any product we review meets the statutory obligations that apply to you.

3.Pricing and features change

Software vendors change prices, rename plans, move features between tiers and introduce limits without notice. Pricing also varies by country, currency, billing cycle and promotional period, and a plan sold in one market may not exist in another.

Every price and feature we publish was correct at the time of writing, on the date shown on the article. We re-check our pricing pages periodically, but we cannot promise that any figure is current at the moment you read it.

Before you buy anything, confirm the current price, plan limits and terms on the vendor’s own website. Where our figures and the vendor’s differ, the vendor is correct.

4.Limits of our testing

Our reviews describe what happened when we used a product, under the conditions set out in our testing methodology. Those conditions are stated so you can judge how far our experience transfers to yours.

Real businesses differ. Results depend on your data volume, your existing systems, your team’s familiarity with the tool, your integrations, your internet connection and the version of the product available in your region. A tool we found fast and straightforward may be slow or awkward at a different scale.

We cannot test every feature, every integration or every edge case, and we do not claim to. Where we have not tested something, we say so rather than assume.

5.Verdicts are opinions

Our scores, rankings, recommendations and “best for” verdicts are the considered editorial opinions of the person who tested the product, reached by applying our published criteria. They are honestly held and evidence-based. They are not statements of fact and not guarantees of performance.

Reasonable people weigh criteria differently. A product we rank second may be the better choice for you.

6.Your data is your responsibility

Our articles include setup guides, migration walkthroughs and configuration steps. Follow them at your own risk.

Before you migrate accounting records, import data, change a chart of accounts, connect a bank feed or cancel an existing subscription, take a full backup and export your data in a format you can read without the software. Migration between accounting products can be irreversible, and a cancelled account can take its records with it.

We are not responsible for loss of data, corrupted records, failed migrations, duplicated entries, or disruption to your business arising from steps described on this site.

7.No affiliation with vendors

We are an independent publication. We are not authorised resellers, partners, implementation consultants or support agents for any product we cover, and no vendor endorses or sponsors The Software Scribe.

We cannot help with your account, your billing, your login or a bug in someone else’s product. For any of that, contact the vendor’s own support team, who hold your account and your data.

8.Screenshots and trademarks

Screenshots on this site were captured from the products described, for the purpose of review and commentary. Interfaces are updated frequently and a screenshot may not match what you see today.

Product names, logos and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and commentary only.

9.External links

We link to vendor websites, official documentation and other publications where it helps the reader. We do not control those sites, we are not responsible for their content or accuracy, and a link is not an endorsement.

10.Advertising and affiliate links

This site carries display advertising and affiliate links, which is how it is funded. Commission does not influence our verdicts, and no vendor sees a review before publication.

The full detail is in our affiliate disclosure, and the safeguards that keep commercial interests out of editorial decisions are set out in our editorial policy.

11.Errors and corrections

We get things wrong sometimes, and when we do we fix the page and record what changed rather than quietly editing it. If you have found an error, tell us which article and what is wrong at contact@thesoftwarescribe.com. Our corrections process explains what happens next.

12.Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, KCS Global Group and its team accept no liability for any loss or damage, direct or indirect, arising from your use of this site or your reliance on anything published here. This includes losses connected to a software purchase, a subscription you cancelled, a migration you attempted, or a business decision you took after reading our content.

Your use of this site is entirely at your own risk. Our full liability terms are in our terms of service.
