Unfortunately, technology has made accounting more complicated than it needs to be. Today’s accounting software is stuffed full of features you don’t use, and workarounds you’re forced into. GlassJar is designed to simplify the way you do bookkeeping.
Single-Screen Transaction Entry
Gone are the days of switching back and forth between different pages to get things done. In GlassJar, you can enter income, expenses, invoices, bills, and more – all from a single screen.
Same Person, Same Contact
QuickBooks forces you to create duplicate contacts if the same person is both a customer and a vendor, or a contractor. It also doesn’t allow contacts with the same name, which is super frustrating.
In GlassJar, your contacts can be both a customer and vendor, or even a contractor. And just like in the real world, you can have multiple contacts with the same name.
Search our full library of reports and add only the ones you need to your account, so your dashboard stays focused on what matters.
Add Only The Reports You Use
QuickBooks dumps dozens of financial reports into your account, many of which you never use.

Accounting Software So Good It Makes You Want To Hug Your Kids
Accounting is about more than numbers. It’s about confidence. With GlassJar, you’re equipped to do your best work without second-guessing your tools.

14 Reasons to Choose GlassJar Instead of QuickBooks
Running a small business means bookkeeping competes with everything else on your plate. GlassJar is built to take less of your time, not more of it.
1. One screen for every transaction
Most accounting software makes you hunt for the right screen: one for bills, another for invoices, another for journal entries. GlassJar puts every transaction type on a single entry screen. Less clicking, less relearning, less time lost to navigation.
2. Current cash flow, without the manual entry
Connect your bank and card accounts once through Plaid. Transactions arrive ready for review, and GlassJar suggests a match against your linked accounts for each one, so reconciling is a quick approval instead of retyping. Anything unmatched is flagged for you to check, and your balances reflect reality without logging into five different portals.
3. Reports built around what you actually track
Choose which reports from the report library appear on your dashboard. Compare periods, see sales, expenses, and cash flow side by side, and keep the reports you actually use one click away.
4. One contact, every role
The same person can be your customer, vendor, and contractor. In many accounting tools that means separate records, often with a tweaked name to avoid a conflict. GlassJar lets one contact hold all three roles at the same time, with one shared history.
5. Expense tracking that doesn’t involve a shoebox
Record each expense once, assign it to a category or custom tag, and match it to the right bank transaction. Clean records without the manual filing.
6. Check printing that stays on-brand
Print checks with your own branding and consistent formatting, and every check is automatically logged in your books. No separate step to remember.
7. Inventory that updates itself Coming Soon
Stock levels will adjust automatically with every sale and receipt, so your cost of goods sold and gross margin stay accurate without a manual recount.
8. Full audit trail, without the noise
Every change is logged, who made it, when, and what changed, so you can trust your numbers and explain any adjustment during a review. Built to stay useful over time instead of turning into an unreadable wall of entries.
9. Reporting that supports real decisions
Track trends like monthly revenue growth, margin shifts, and expense ratios over time, so you’re working from patterns instead of guessing from a single month’s snapshot. When you need the detail somewhere else, export the report and take it with you.
10. Room to grow without switching again
Multiple users and role-based permissions mean GlassJar scales with your business instead of forcing a disruptive migration later.
11. Everything connected, nothing bolted on
Bank connections, expenses, invoices, and checks all feed the same ledger automatically. Set rules by category, keyword, vendor, or amount so recurring charges like subscriptions and utility bills land in the right place every month, and change any entry in a few clicks if one lands wrong. Nothing needs re-entering just to catch up with itself.
12. A switch that doesn’t require starting over
Connect your bank and add contacts in minutes. You can run GlassJar alongside your current software until you’re confident, instead of cutting over all at once.
13. Tax season, handled as you go
Reports that used to take days to assemble are ready to export when your tax preparer asks for them. Sales tax tracking Coming Soon is on the roadmap.
14. Access for your bookkeeper or accountant, without a compromise
Give your accountant or bookkeeper their own role-based login so they can update your books directly, without exposing banking details or other sensitive data they don’t need to see.
