Online accounting solution KashFlow was launched in 2005 in the United Kingdom for the purpose of providing an affordable software for smaller businesses and sole proprietors. Although the company mostly focuses on its British clientele, KashFlow can be purchased by anyone around the globe.

This simple cloud-based software, which exists in three versions, provides you everything you need for running a successful business: easy-to-access invoicing, quick creating of purchases and quotes, starting projects, adding an unlimited number of clients, integrating over 50 apps and services, and automated creation of reports like profit & loss, balance sheets and many more - either on your desktop or on your mobile device.

Furthermore, you get access to 24/7 online support, a detailed knowledge base, and invitations to trainings and webinars either for free or for a certain price. But the best thing of all is KashFlow's pricing which includes a 14-day trial period of the top product of the company and an affordable monthly subscription fee which can be reduced if you refer a friend.

At first glance, Canada-based online accounting solution Wave is nothing special: you can do invoicing, create estimates, bills, add your clients, vendors, products, upload receipts, and check some reports. Upon further examination you will see that the user interface is rather blank; you have to pay for certain additional features, even for live chat and phone support, no profit & loss reports are created, and you are mostly unable to access your account from a mobile device. These all should be warning signs to avoid the software. But Wave has a huge advantage over its competitors: it provides all the major features for every single user free of charge. Furthermore, you can cancel your account any time you want. Therefore, if you are not satisfied with Wave's services, you lose nothing. If you are a sole proprietor or an owner of a small business and you want to get accounting software that knows the basics without spending a fortune, then Wave may be worth a try.

Cloud-based online accounting company FreeAgent was founded in 2007 in the United Kingdom with the main goal of making the lives of smaller businesses and sole proprietors easier in the UK, the U.S. and even worldwide. The site is praised for its many features, of which most are available on mobile platforms as well, such as: a nice overview, creating invoices, bills, estimates in an easy way with different currencies and in different languages, time tracking of your projects, easy bank reconciliation, 7 different reports, a smaller inventory for price lists and stocks, 30 integration and add-on options, and the possibility to give partial or full permission to other users such as your co-workers and accountants. And let's not forget about two big pros of the site for new users: the completely free 30-day trial period with a fully functional software after which you can choose a monthly or the cheaper annual subscription, and the award-winning support of the company with tutorial videos, webinars and many more.

Founded in 2007 in the UK, Liquid Accounts is an online accounting solution mostly aimed at small businesses and sole proprietors. Even though the company focuses on the British market it is available for every user around the world, including those from the U.S. You can choose from three different products, plus payroll, all of which have different features. Because of Liquid Online Accounts' modularity, you can add certain premium features to your existing ones by paying additional monthly fees. Thus, in a rather unique way, you only have to pay for what you are using and you don't need to purchase software filled with unnecessary features. But no matter which version you choose and which add-ons you pay for, you get software that is capable of handling your invoices, bills, receipts, an unlimited amount of clients, free UK-based support and all the things you would expect from a simple accounting software. And even though we encountered many faults in our chosen product, Liquid Online Accounts, it serves its purpose rather good.

Online dating site eharmony was founded in 2000 by professional psychologist Neil Clark Warren, who wanted to ensure high-quality matchmaking through a scientific approach. The first dating service to use algorithms, eharmony's compatibility tests are perfect for users looking to find connections locally or abroad.

Although this scientific approach may be elaborate, the test and its results are clearly presented and easy to understand. The platform doesn't overwhelm, offering up a couple of new matches daily.

Despite eharmony's lack of features in its free plan, this still provides users with a taste of this dating service's potential. The overall layout of profiles is attractive, and the whole experience is consistent across platforms.

DatingDirect is more of an online community than a pure dating site; the site offers people a place where they can socialize, meet and romanticize other singles, and generally just have fun. The service is committed to provide a pleasant experience for users, so they could search for love in their own pace. If you are unfamiliar with online dating, you will find numerous tips and advices on the site so you won't feel discouraged. But DatingDirect does more than just connect people over the internet: it also organizes social events where singles can meet in person. The registration on the site is free, and users are able to piece together their profile with tons of personal information and preference, facilitating the chance of finding a suiting date.
