Hurdlr vs. MileIQ

Hurdlr is great for simple self-employment tracking (income, expenses, taxes). It's not as powerful as something like Quickbooks in my opinion, but honestly I think that's a good thing. No need to overcomplicate things if you don't need all those features. Hurdlr is perfect for exactly what you need as a self-employed person. I have always been able to do everything I need to do with Hurdlr and it's simple and easy to use. Most importantly, everything is quick. I can quickly add income and expenses, and quickly export reports. Works exactly the way it needs to.

MileIQ is a great tool for users that need to track their own business mileage to claim on expense reports. The phone app is easy to set up and use when classifying drives. it will occasionally ask you if you want to auto-classify frequent drives to further minimize the manual tasks of tracking mileage.

• For our limited purposes - there is nothing missing - it does it's function of tracking, calculating mileage costs and reporting very well. Do not need anything else.

MileIQ is extremely easy to use. The phone app has a great flow. Drive classification can be as easy as swiping left and right. Users can access their reports in 2-3 steps. The admin console is easy to navigate and makes it simple to invite new users and remove old ones.

Hurdlr is much cheaper and less complicated than QuickBooks. Less money, less time, less frustration than QuickBooks. I used QuickBooks Online for another business and had to spend hours and hours figuring out how to set it up, and ultimately had to pay an accountant to do it for me. So much wasted money and time compared to Hurdlr, which was easy, and free to get started. I'm sure some businesses need QuickBooks, but if you have a pretty simple self-employed business, Hurdlr is definitely superior.
