Pricing, worked out
Spotlight prices per organisation, with a 10-organisation bundle.
Monthly, in US dollars, before tax. Halfkit annual is $129.99 per company per year; in India, ₹999 a month or ₹9,999 a year per company. Spotlight figures are its US prices; other regions are priced separately.
Switching
What carries over, what doesn't, and how to check the numbers before you commit.
Xero and QuickBooks Online clients connect over OAuth. Clients on Zoho Books or TallyPrime can now be included too.
Halfkit reports and board packs carry Halfkit's own layout. If white-label is part of what you sell, keep Spotlight for those clients.
One login across client workspaces; the firm dashboard shows each client's companies, subscription and renewal. Each client company is still billed on its own.
Run one client's month in both during the free period and compare the consolidated totals.
Questions
No. Halfkit doesn't offer white-label. If that's important, Spotlight is the better fit.
Yes. Zoho Books connects over OAuth in any Zoho data centre, and TallyPrime syncs through a Windows agent. You can mix them with QuickBooks Online and Xero in one group.
Spotlight consolidates up to 50 entities. Halfkit prices per company; over 10 companies, ask us for volume pricing.
