Otty's short answer

QuickBooks' Hong Kong pages showed no plan prices when we read them, only four plans by user count (1, 3, 5 and 25) and a 30-day free trial, so a like-for-like price is not possible. OCTIS covers the same bookkeeping and then adds company secretary, tax, audit coordination and a full operating system, priced 10–30% below your current bill or their quote. If you want software your own team operates, QuickBooks is a fair choice.

Why teams switch

Everything a ledger does, plus CRM, automation, Otty agents, FX, card, account and payments built in.

No user-count tiers to outgrow: one plan priced from your current bill or their quote, 10–30% below it.

OCTIS prepares the books with AI and licensed professionals check them; with QuickBooks your team does the work.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is OCTIS cheaper than QuickBooks?

Yes. Send QuickBooks's quote or your current bill on WhatsApp, and OCTIS prices the same work 10–30% lower than it. Incorporation is at least 10% below their published price. Every price comes with the Lowest Price Guarantee and a 30-day money-back guarantee, terms apply, and licensed professionals check every filing. There is no list price to compare against: your quote or bill is the starting point, so the saving is measured against what you would actually pay.

How much does QuickBooks cost in Hong Kong?

We could not confirm a figure. QuickBooks' Hong Kong pricing page listed four plans (Simple Start for 1 user, Essentials for 3, Plus for 5, Advanced for 25), a 30-day free trial and monthly renewal, but showed no amounts when we read it. Check the page for current prices.

Does QuickBooks file my Hong Kong tax return or act as company secretary?

Not on its Hong Kong pages. QuickBooks is accounting software; its pages list plans by users, not secretarial or filing services. OCTIS includes company secretary and tax preparation with licensed professionals, and coordinates the audit.

Does OCTIS replace the statutory audit?

No. A Hong Kong statutory audit must be signed by an independent licensed auditor. OCTIS prepares the accounts and coordinates the audit with a Hong Kong CPA practice.
