What is the best Ignition alternative for UK accountants?
It depends on what you need. strively is the best fit if you want to fully automate client onboarding, because it screens enquiries against your rules, books meetings, sends web proposals and onboards clients with engagement letters, AML checks and direct debit set-up. GoProposal suits firms using Sage, FigsFlow suits firms that also want practice management, Socket suits Xero practices that want low-cost billing, and Better Proposals suits firms that only need proposals.
Is there a cheaper alternative to Ignition in the UK?
Not always, once you compare what's included. Some tools start at a lower price but charge extra for things strively includes as standard. GoProposal needs its OverSuite add-on for engagement letters and e-signatures, Socket needs a separate Calendly account for meeting booking, and Better Proposals charges extra for automated follow-ups. None of the other tools compared here screens enquiries automatically or has a waitlist. Every strively plan includes enquiry screening, the waitlist, meeting booking, web proposals, e-signed engagement letters and Adfin direct debit set-up, with AML HQ charged monthly on top. Ignition is priced in US dollars and charges by active clients, so its cost rises as you grow.
Which Ignition alternatives are priced in pounds?
strively, GoProposal, FigsFlow, Socket and Better Proposals all price in pounds. PandaDoc, like Ignition, prices in US dollars.
Which Ignition alternative screens enquiries automatically?
Of the tools compared here, only strively. Its enquiry forms check every lead against your own rules and accept or decline it automatically, and a waitlist keeps screening enquiries during busy periods such as January.
Which Ignition alternatives handle recurring billing?
GoProposal and Socket both offer recurring billing, through GoCardless and Xero respectively. strively doesn't create invoices or run recurring billing. It adds new clients to your Adfin direct debit mandate, and you keep billing as you do today.
Can I use strively alongside Ignition?
Yes. Some firms keep Ignition for billing existing clients and send new enquiries through strively, which screens them, books meetings, sends web proposals and onboards new clients with engagement letters and AML checks.
Is Practice Ignition the same as Ignition?
Yes. Practice Ignition rebranded to Ignition, so everything on this page applies to both names.
