## What it is
InvoicePlane is a free, self-hosted web application for managing quotes, invoices, clients, and payments, built in PHP on CodeIgniter. It targets freelancers and small businesses, offering client CRM, online payment gateways, customizable templates, reporting, and EU-compliant e-invoicing.

## Use cases
- self-hosted invoicing for freelancers
- manage clients and quotes in one place
- track invoice payments and send reminders
- accept online payments via PayPal or Stripe
- generate EU-compliant e-invoices
- create recurring invoices for regular clients
- customize invoice PDF and email templates
- replace expensive invoicing software with a free alternative

## When to choose
- you want full control by hosting invoicing on your own server
- you are a freelancer or small business needing simple billing without subscription fees
- you need quotes, invoices, payments, and basic CRM in one lightweight tool
- you must produce EU-standard e-invoices
- you want a customizable, multilingual invoicing app

## When to avoid
- you need a fully hosted SaaS with no server maintenance
- you require advanced accounting features like double-entry bookkeeping or payroll
