Invoicing Software

Funtimefrankie

Hi guys,
I have been running a small car parts business part time alongside my 9-5 job for the past 3 years. The time has now come to give it a go full time. I have been using duplicate printed invoice books that I manually fill out, but would now like to change that to printable invoices via appropriate software. So my question is what software would be suitable? I have had a look at Quickbooks, Xero and Sage but I am still undecided. Inventory Management and accounts is not a necessity at this time(although it would help in future), so really just professional looking A4 invoices. Has anyone any recommendations or advice?
Thanks

I use this for simple Invoicing:

do you want
a) invoice info that auto populates into an accounts package: OTT - Quickbooks, Xero and Sage cheaper & perhaps just as applicable : kashflow, VTT,
or
b) do you just want to produce a printed invoice? google docs

Take advice from your accountant - they'll have a few softwares they are accustomed to using and are usually able to provide at discounted rates if you subscribe through them. Personally, I'd suggest an integrated accounts package to avoid the duplication of time/effort of running separate accounts and invoicing softwares. Quickbooks, Kashflow, Xero, are all good products but you need them properly set up and need to be shown how to use them properly, hence getting your accountant on board. Garbage in, garbage out.
