OK Mart vs BUSY
BUSY is GST billing, accounting and inventory software for Indian MSMEs: BUSY Desktop for Windows and BUSY Online in the cloud. OK Mart is free to start, runs on any device with nothing to install, and gives the shop an online store where customers order and check out themselves. For accounting books and GST returns, BUSY does what OK Mart does not.
