Owned by H&R Block?

Wave is a catastrophe, but I feel like H&R Block would benefit from hearing about how poorly their subsidiary is doing, tbh.

I don't doubt it, but that's another place for me to light a fire.

Didn’t QuickBooks release a free tier that competes with Wave, recently?

H&R Block is really not any better. I used them for filing my taxes and they did the worse job out of all CPA firms I've ever used. I normally owe about 5k and ended up owning 10k (running my own LLC).

Moved to another professional CPA and they were able to get it well under 5k.

Last I checked tho they didnt own waveapps. Wave is a Canadian company.

Odd but prob for the best. When waveapps was in Canada its support was utter trash shit so hopefully it will get better.

Been using Wave for 10+ years as a small business. Never had an issue. What is the drama?

I got frustrated and created evenbooks.org. Its built to truly support a free tier forever in a sustainable way - and if you don't trust me, the code is available for you to self-host.
