How to choose a Gen GST alternative
- Count your GSTINs and suppliers. Reconciliation value scales with supplier count; a business with fifty suppliers rarely needs a dedicated tool.
- Check the filing path: direct GSP integration is faster and more reliable than JSON upload through the portal.
- For CA firms, look for client-level dashboards, multi-user roles and bulk operations rather than a single-business product.
