Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Fyle
- Billed per active user, defined as anyone who creates an expense or has a connected card with transactions in the month, so headcount does not predict the bill
- The Growth plan carries a 5 user minimum and the Business plan a 10 user minimum, so the entry cost is set by the floor rather than the team
- API access and the Sage Intacct and NetSuite integrations require a paid tier
- ACH reimbursements and project expense tracking sit above the entry plan
- Both published plans are billed annually
- Enterprise pricing is custom and aimed at organisations with 250 or more employees
Fortnox
- Corporate packages alone span at least 7 named tiers (Mini through Stor+) priced from 209 kr/man to 919 kr/man, and add-on programs are billed separately per module (SEK)
- The Fortnox Access verification tier is priced by transaction volume, rising from 9 kr/man at zero verifications to 199 kr/man at 1000+ verifications (SEK), so cost is not fixed and scales with usage
