Biggest opportunity: Swap “vat” for “e invoicing”. “vat” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “e invoicing” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →0.6%
of downloads still active
At least 400 of 72.6K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,771 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 14 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

I’m so, so grateful for the customer support of Quaderno. Reached out to them couple of times for different questions and set ups I had. Fast response, accurate answers, very kind and great comunicators!

Uso Quaderno desde hace 7 años cuando empecé a vender en internet. Lo hago porque me hace ahorrar mucho tiempo con las facturas. No sólo el tiempo de crearlas y enviarlas, sino también porque es capaz de ajustar los impuestos según la localidad del cliente. En mi caso concreto facturo desde las Islas Canarias y aquí tenemos un impuesto difernte al resto de la península. En Canarias el impuesto se llama IGIC y es del 7%, mientras que en la península es IVA y suele ser del 21%. Lo que me permite el plugin de Quaderno, que está conectado a mi tienda Woocommerce, es cobrar el impuesto sólo a los residentes canarios, que es lo que marca la ley. Quaderno me permite conectar varias cuentas de Stripe. Te recomiendo Quaderno si tienes que gestionar gran cantidad de facturas al mes y prefieres dedicar ese tiempo a aportar más valor en tu negocio. El soporte es rápido y muy bueno. Siempre han resuelto todas mis dudas. Recientemente ayudaron a un programador de mi equipo con unos temas de conexión de API. Son gente muy amable. Lo recomiendo mucho.

Does everything you need to calculate taxes at checkout. Configuration is super simple. The plugin seems very stable and the account dashboard is very user friendly. Comparatively, I was an Avalara Tax customer for a year and was literally paying thousands in setup fees, transaction fees, and annual renewal fees. I also tested Woocommerce shipping and tax and found it OK but it requires Jetpack, which collects data about your site despite turning off all the other modules and is reputed to cause performance issues . If you just want tax calculations to work and a pay-as-you-go plan, Quaderno is probably right for you. I wish I had discovered it sooner. Also check out 1Team Software for shipping solutions.

I love Quaderno for calculating taxes. We have been using it for like 5 months together with WP Job Manager, WC Subscriptions, and Stripe now without any issue. I can recommend it. The plugin requires a paid plan to work (min. 29 $ per month). For us, it’s def. worth the investment.

Quaderno is awesome. It’s not free but don’t let that deter you! I’ve been using this app for years and it has saved me so much time! Customer service is on point with clear explanations and will help you with customization when needed. At the beginning of each month, I export all my invoices into one neatly generated PDF file for accounting. It is totally worth the price! This topic was modified 6 years ago by diybypanida.

I wasted my time setting up and registering their service to find out I have to pay a tone!!! Grrr! Can’t you write it in the description that we need a paid account?!

This plugin has been working perfectly for over a year that I have been using it, I am very happy with it. It automatically makes sure the correct amount of GST/VAT is added to the invoices of my e-learning sales.

For now, we use Quaderno on all our website. It’s the best in EU for VAT MOSS and a disconcerting ease in extracting the data for our accounting. The team is very friendly and answers quickly to all technical questions, in short, one year with them and it will last a long time!
