An honest side-by-side, including the case where you should stay where you are. Facts about Sufio come from their public listing and pricing page as of July 2026.
Sufio prices by invoice volume in steps that get expensive fast. SayPDF charges $5/month for unlimited-feature invoicing and $39/month at the top of the range, where the only things that scale are sending volume and how long the archive is kept.
ZUGFeRD / Factur-X and XRechnung are on the free plan here. Get the format your German B2B buyers will require in 2027 without a compliance tier.
A drag-and-drop editor plus AI reconstruction of an invoice you upload, instead of a themed template you configure.
DATEV-format export and live Lexware Office / sevDesk sync — the file the German bookkeeper asks for, on every plan.

If you are already on Sufio, the VAT logic is working for your B2B flows and the invoice volume fits comfortably inside the tier you pay for, switching buys you price, not capability.
