e-conomic vs Exact Online (2026): which should you pick?

Pick e-conomic if

• Fits if you run a Danish company with an accountant who logs in too
• Works for businesses that want an API into their own tools

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you post a lot: the price rises when you pass your postings limit
• Skip it if you need orders, quotes or reminders, because they sit on Plus at 299 kr. and above
• Watch out: extra users are an add-on, and only Komplet includes one
• Watch out: time registration is a separate add-on at 79 kr. a month
• Not for you if you want yearly billing discounts: the page lists none, and it is billed quarterly

Pick Exact Online if

• Fits if you run a small Dutch company and want VAT returns and bank links in one place
• Makes sense if your accountant already works in Exact

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you are one person: €49 a month for 1 user and 25 sales invoices
• Tight if you need unlimited bank links or debtor follow-up, which start on the €99 plan
• Watch out: documents past the 3 included each month cost €0.39 to €0.50 each
• Watch out: the pricing page is Dutch, quoted in euros, and doesn't say whether VAT is included
• Skip it if you want a free plan, because there is only a trial

e-conomic

Exact Online

Bookkeeping and VAT

General ledger, VAT accounting, reports, year-end close, currency handling and e-invoicing are part of the core in every package.

Bank connection

Bank transactions flow into the books automatically; the page says it connects to all banks in Denmark, so no CSV imports are needed.

Orders, quotes and reminders

Send orders and quotes by email, PDF or online link, and keep track of customers who have not paid on time.

Receipt matching and suggestions

Receipt matching, automatic reading of receipts and posting suggestions cut manual entry; some of these start at Smart.

Accountant access

An accountant or bookkeeper can be given direct access to the books at no extra charge.

Open API and integrations

An open API connects e-conomic to the rest of a company's systems; the vendor says more than 200 integrations exist.
