APP COMPARE: Financing Solutions Mini-series Part 2

by

This article is the second within this mini-series looking at small business finance and funding solutions (and Apps) that integrate with QuickBooks Online via the Intuit QuickBooks Apps Center. Sooner or later most small businesses need some sort of financial or funding assistance. Many of these solutions provide financial alternatives ranging from short-term loans, to SBA loan assistance, or invoice factoring. In addition to funding sources, there are a variety of other 'financial and business related' services/industries.

There are a number of Apps in this category, too many to include all of them within a single 'App Compare' article, so each installment of this mini-series will encompass a handful of randomly selected Apps (presented in alphabetical order within each grouping), without regard to any assessment of their performance; and as with our other 'App Compare' articles, no side-by-side comparisons or rankings will be provided. (For further clarification, see the Editor's commentary at the conclusion of this, and each 'part' of this mini-series with regard to Apps included therein.)

Editor's Comments:

As I mentioned in the introduction of this article, there are way too many Apps of this category to include all of them within a single article and remain true to our editorial guidelines regarding feature length. As such, we have limited the number of Apps within this article and will do so in future installments within this mini-series. I randomly selected Apps and have presented them within this feature in alphabetical order without regard to any assessment of their performance, and with no side-by-side comparison or ranking. The same will be true of all the Apps include in the future features within this topic and the APP COMPARE series overall.
