Quick answer
Zoho Invoice is free, with recurring invoices, reminders, and payments, but it caps you at 500 invoices a year and adds Zoho branding. Invoice Website has a smaller free plan and paid plans from $5 a month, with no branding and 40 templates. Pick Zoho for free automation, Invoice Website for clean, unbranded documents.
