Not a 500-button ERP, but your everyday companion
If you work in the field, you have neither the time nor the patience to get lost in obscure accounting menus or wait 15 seconds for a slow web page to load. FatturaFacile exists to do one thing, and do it flawlessly: issue tax documents and get you paid right away.
Quote in 1 minute, invoice in 1 click
Still on the job site or at the customer's home? Open your laptop, put together the quote with labour and materials in under 60 seconds and hand it over on the spot. When the customer gives the go-ahead, just press a button: the quote is instantly converted into an official invoice with sequential numbering, without re-entering a single line.
No cloud lock-in and full independence from the network
Monthly subscription services lock you out of your tax data as soon as you stop paying the fee. In FatturaFacile your files are stored in an open SQLite database right in the program folder. It works in the basement, in the van, in the workshop or without an internet connection: you are always 100% operational.
Built with and for the craftspeople community
We are not a multinational selling enterprise licences. When an electrician or a plumber tells us about a practical need – such as a specific field for withholding tax (ritenuta d'acconto), the social security fund or a custom print template – we develop the module for free and release it to everyone.
Our Story: From a Real Need to Free Software
The FatturaFacile project was born from watching the daily frustration of friends in the trades – plumbers, metalworkers, electricians and small professionals between Lombardy and Canton Ticino. They were forced into ever more expensive monthly subscriptions for complex, slow programs that depend on an internet connection that is often missing in basements or on building sites.
We asked ourselves: "Why should a professional who issues 15 invoices a month pay hundreds of euros a year and hand ownership of their records over to third-party cloud platforms?"
So we built a first lean version on a USB stick, based on a robust SQLite database file and the native C#/.NET stack. Its word-of-mouth success among colleagues convinced the team to make the project completely open, free and available to the whole community in Italy and Switzerland.
