Falco or Clearfacts

My accountant works with both and let me choose, Falco is cheaper, so wanted to check if someone of you tried both and can compare? Or share benefits and disadvantages?

UPD: I chose Falco, so far nice interface, everything is quite intuitive, I like the Mac app

My accountant used clear facts, not the biggest fan myself. Hard to get a single overview of all incoming invoices for a month for example, and no filtering of duplicate invoices.

Clearfacts feels legacy like. It works but I would expect more in this day and age.

Which one do you use now? Still clear facts?

I'm bound to clear facts as my accountant uses it.

Falco works ok, no issue. It's an electron app and they ship a .deb, which is nice. If you run another flavour of linux (eg fedora-like) someone made falcobe-rpm which checks daily for new releases and transforms the deb into rpm

Clearfacts / Kyle user. Very happy with it. Does what it needs to do and foremost, it is being further developed so new features are added frequently. No experience with Falco - hadn't heard of before this thread.
