Overview
Holded is a Spanish cloud business management platform -- invoicing, accounting, CRM, projects, and inventory in one suite -- aimed at Spanish and broader Southern European SMEs, with modules sold somewhat à la carte rather than one fixed bundle.
Implementation at a Glance
Its real differentiator against generic international business software is native compliance support for Spanish tax requirements -- the Plan General Contable (Spain's standard chart of accounts), SII real-time VAT reporting for businesses that require it, and Verifactu-compliant invoicing -- none of which a non-Spanish-built platform replicates natively.
Key Considerations
- Confirm which modules (invoicing, accounting, CRM, projects, inventory) your business actually needs before assuming you need the full suite.
- Configure your chart of accounts to the Spanish Plan General Contable structure from the start.
- Confirm whether your business is subject to SII real-time VAT reporting, since that changes your invoicing workflow requirements.
