Gekko Features

Gekko simplifies expense tracking with a dedicated mobile app that allows users to digitize receipts by taking a photo. The system uses optical character recognition (OCR) to automatically extract key data like amounts and dates, reducing manual entry and organizing expenses efficiently.

See How It Works

Users can create and send professional invoices and quotations using an online editor or mobile app. The platform facilitates faster payments by allowing the integration of payment links from partners like Mollie, and it automatically updates accounts when invoices are paid. There is also an option to manually mark individual invoices as ‘paid’.

See How It Works

The software provides robust tools for time management, enabling users to track billable hours with a mobile timer or through manual entry. This feature integrates with Google and Apple Calendars and allows hours to be imported directly into invoices for accurate billing.

See How It Works

Gekko offers a real-time bank connection that automatically imports business transactions from banks across the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain. This allows users to link incoming payments to invoices and outgoing payments to receipts, ensuring their accounting records are always up-to-date and providing a clear cash flow overview.

See How It Works

Designed for mobile professionals, Gekko includes a feature to log business trips and mileage for reimbursement or tax purposes. The Gekko Trips app can use a phone's GPS to automatically track routes, ensuring that no deductible travel expenses are missed.

Poor Software Experience

Pros

I never got to actually use it because I ran into technical problems right from the start. It was frustrating not being able to even get past the setup stage and see how it could work for me.

Cons

Support completely disappeared after I requested a refund when their Revolut integration failed, despite earlier assurances it worked. Dennis stopped responding for days, then claimed they don't work on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, and ultimately refused the refund by citing legal technicalities. Basic features like adding invoices to costs are broken and after 8 years of development, the software still feels poorly tested. They seemed more focused on keeping my payment than on customer satisfaction or fixing the obvious bugs I reported.

Excellent for free invoicing

Pros

The best thing I like is interface which is really simple and getting invoices out to my contacts takes just a couple of clicks. This simplicity saves me time and makes the whole billing process much smoother.

Cons

The interface feels a bit outdated for me at times, though it still gets the job done. While functional, a more modern design would make using it a more pleasant experience.

Perfect for Small Business

Pros

The fact that it's completely free is fantastic. I find it really easy to navigate and the apps for trip tracking, invoicing and receipt scanning work easily together.

Cons

While having four separate apps instead of one comprehensive platform might seem inconvenient at first, I haven't actually run into any problems since they transition smoothly between each other.
