Uku's accounting software integrations, and why they matter

Uku integrates natively with QuickBooks, Xero, e-conomic, Fortnox, Tripletex, 360 Ksiegowosc, SmartAccounts, FreeAgent, Merit Aktiva and Trigon for client data and billing, plus Companies House and other business registries, Google Drive, Dropbox and SharePoint for documents, and Zapier, Make.com and a public API for everything else. Here’s what each one does and why it’s worth setting up.

Uku & Integrations – Supercharging your workflows

Each day, we begin our work routines, only to be sidetracked by a plethora of small tasks and distractions.

Most accountants and practice managers can relate.

Time at work is our most valuable commodity.

It should be better spent on more profit-making work, rather than monotonous, repetitive and resource-heavy tasks.

Fortunately, with modern-day integrations tools like Zapier, you can automate in a low-cost and straightforward way.

Head to our integrations page to see the full, current list.

Current Uku and accounting software integrations

Full, native integrations bring huge tangible advantages to businesses of all sizes.

That’s because each individual business has varying requirements to achieve success, and depends on other software to fulfil its workflows.

Naturally, a full integration is always more beneficial, as this can be better tailored to each customer. That’s why Uku has built full integrations with the leading accounting software Uku’s customers actually run: QuickBooks, Xero, e-conomic, Fortnox, Tripletex, 360 Ksiegowosc, SmartAccounts, FreeAgent, Merit Aktiva and Trigon. Each of these imports your clients into Uku and keeps them up to date, and exports the invoices Uku generates straight back to the accounting software.

For everything outside that core list, Uku connects through Zapier and Make.com — no coding required — and through a public API and MCP server for teams and AI assistants that want to build something custom.

Integrations are only as dependable as the systems underneath them. Vendors keep that side steady with an Infrastructure as Code platform, so a configuration change never quietly breaks a connection a firm relies on — the sort of plumbing you should never have to think about, and only notice when it fails.

We keep expanding the native list based on what our users actually ask for — if your accounting software isn’t on it yet, tell us. That’s how Trigon, Merit Aktiva and several others got added.

It’s why we built a Zapier integration for Uku, to cover every accounting practice’s needs even outside the native list.

What is Zapier?

Zapier is an online automation tool that connects users’ favourite apps, including Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and thousands more (even non-accounting related apps like Outlook or Gmail).

Zapier can connect two more apps to automate repetitive tasks without relying on developers to perform any coding or build the integration.

Accountants that use Zapier to automate time-consuming tasks experience better workflow management, increased time to work on other clients and invest in their own people.

Why Uku built a Zapier integration

Uku is the most comprehensive accounting practice management software solution for accountants and accounting practice managers.

As discussed above, you can already use Uku with your favourite accounting software — Xero, QuickBooks, e-conomic, Fortnox, Tripletex, SmartAccounts, FreeAgent, Merit Aktiva, Trigon and 360 Ksiegowosc — to automate the most monotonous tasks in your workflows, all achieved through a native, no-code integration.

Plus, Uku integrates with Companies House for client onboarding, and with Zapier you can add even more tech tools to work smarter.

What does this mean for Uku customers?

The Uku Zapier integration empowers Uku customers to connect with over 2000+ other apps connected to Zapier, including Slack and many email marketing apps — on top of Google Drive, Dropbox and SharePoint, which Uku also connects to directly for document management.

Zapier lets you exchange and synchronise data between Uku and these apps in real-time.

Using these ‘zaps’ means Uku customers can benefit by:

• reducing their duplicate data entry,
• decreasing errors between multiple systems and apps
• syncing all apps, so they contain the same data
• automating the most tedious tasks thus saving more time

Why workflow automation matters

Automating tedious processes saves time, reduces errors, and raises productivity and profit in your accounting practice.

Introducing automation is invaluable in today’s modern digital businesses: from recording new clients to contract templates sales, filtering client information and ticking off routine tasks.

Workflow automation benefits include:

• A clearer picture of business processes
• More operational efficiency
• Resource reallocation (to train new staff or obtain more clients)
• improved client experience and engagement
• Lower operational costs
• Improved collaboration and communication
• Quicker response times
