Halfpricesoft.com updates ezAccounting with desktop payroll software and no monthly fee
Halfpricesoft.com says its updated ezAccounting software is built for small businesses that want offline access, local data control and a flat annual price.
Halfpricesoft.com says its updated ezAccounting software gives small businesses a desktop-based payroll and accounting option with local data control and no recurring monthly fee.
What happened
Halfpricesoft.com said on Sept. 8, 2026, that it updated its ezAccounting payroll and business task software as a desktop product for small businesses, independent contractors and accountants. The Redmond, Washington, company said the software is meant to offer local data control, offline continuity and no recurring monthly fees.
The release says ezAccounting starts at $199 for a single installation per calendar year. It also says the product includes a fully functional 30-day trial that does not require a credit card.
Why it matters
The announcement comes as some small businesses continue to weigh desktop software against cloud subscriptions. Halfpricesoft.com says ezAccounting is an in-house alternative for users who want to keep data on their own systems and keep working during an internet outage.
The company also says the single-installation version supports unlimited checks for multiple companies for one flat rate, with network versions available at discounted prices.
Context and background
In the release, Halfpricesoft.com describes itself as a provider of small business software focused on desktop payroll, accounting and tax filing tools. The company says it has been trusted by tens of thousands of businesses for more than 20 years.
The release also lists related products: ezAccounting, ezCheckPrinting, ezPaycheck, ezW2 and ez1099.
What the company said
Dr. Ge, identified in the release as founder of Halfpricesoft.com, said software should serve the business rather than tie it to an endless monthly subscription. Ge also said ezAccounting puts control back in-house, letting clients own the data and control the software.
Ge said the product is intended to let payroll or check printing continue during an internet outage.
What happens next
Halfpricesoft.com said customers can test the software through the 30-day trial. The release did not announce additional timing for future updates or broader rollout plans.
