BlueLandscape Invoicing vs Moneybird.
Both products do invoicing in the Netherlands. They're for different people. Here's an honest comparison from the team that built BlueLandscape.
Where Moneybird wins
Moneybird is a full bookkeeping platform. If you need bank-feed reconciliation, VAT returns (BTW-aangifte), expense tracking, payroll integrations, multi-currency, recurring subscriptions, debiteurenbeheer, or an open API ecosystem with bookkeepers — Moneybird does all of that. We don't.
If invoicing is one feature inside a bigger bookkeeping flow you need, pick Moneybird.
Where we win
If invoicing is the only thing you need a tool for — and your bookkeeping happens elsewhere (your accountant's portal, your own spreadsheet, or simply a folder of PDFs and UBLs) — BlueLandscape is faster, cheaper, and more pleasant:
- Speed of drafting. You type a sentence; the invoice exists. Moneybird's flow is forms inside forms; ~6 clicks per line.
- No subscription. €0.20 per sent invoice instead of €15–25 / month per user. Above ~125 invoices a month Moneybird becomes cheaper; below, we are.
- UBL/Peppol with every send. Moneybird includes UBL on certain tiers and at certain plans. With us it's always on.
- Same address book across our tools. Companies and persons are shared across the suite — when we add administration, time-tracking, or expenses next, they read the same client list. Moneybird's bookkeeping clients don't connect to e.g. their (third-party) survey tool.
Migrating from Moneybird
Not yet supported. We'll build an importer when a real customer asks. For now: if you're moving over, the manual one-time export of contacts + a fresh start with new invoice numbering is what most early users do.

Our honest take
If you're a ZZP'er sending 10–30 invoices a month and your accountant handles your bookkeeping, BlueLandscape is the better fit. If you're a growing small business that wants to manage cashflow / VAT / payroll yourself, Moneybird is the better fit.
There's no shame in using both — they're not competing for the same minutes of your day.
