USA Simple invoicing software

[Cynthia Moore]

I am going to do a little consulting part time. I would love some recommendations for simple software to generate invoices that I can save as PDFs and send. I tried doing it in Word and Excel, but it's tedious and it doesn't look that good.

I don't need anything fancy. I only have one client and at the moment and may not have any more. And it will be just me -- no other associates.

I did a little search and found dozens of possibilities. But most of them are much more elaborate and complex than what I need. I just want to generate invoices.

I would prefer something that I can buy, rather than lease by the month or year. Is there a shareware program that might work?

Thanks, CM

Quickbooks. Just buy it once, the standard version, and it will last you for years. It does require some sort of payment, but it is cheap and simple. It is the simplest option and will give you everything that you need long term.
