by luigi laezza | 29th July 2020 | Packages | invoiceninja

InvoiceNinja is a very interesting invoicing Laravel application that we discovered last year. They have two different versions – hosted and self-hosted. In other words, you can register at invoiceninja.com and use their online version, paying for premium services, or you can download the code for free (Laravel 5.2) and install it on your server for free. We started with the hosted version, and we loved it, especially our accountant. It is really well made, easy to use, with a slick interface. It took us few days to master the tool and since than we have been using it everyday.
