Lovely to use day to day. Support can lag at busy times but the software itself is excellent.
Genuinely easy to learn for someone who is not a numbers person.
Reporting is a bit light if you want to dig into the detail.

LinkedIn verifiedIt handles my company accounts and Self Assessment without an accountant. I just wish the reporting went a little deeper.
The MTD submissions are painless and the tax estimates keep me calm.
Managing Director, Camden
LinkedIn verifiedI contract through my own company and it handles dividends, expenses and Self Assessment without me needing an accountant.
The tax timeline shows exactly what is due and when, so nothing sneaks up on me.
Stock and inventory is basically not there, so it does not suit a product business.
Accountant, Prospect Digital
LinkedIn verifiedI am not an accountant and it still made sense to me within a week. The tax timeline is the feature I did not know I needed.
MTD for VAT just works. I press submit and it goes to HMRC without any faff.
Not much really, it does what I need.
Director, Stonebridge Ltd
LinkedIn verifiedCovers invoicing, expenses and VAT really well. Inventory is the one thing it does not do for me.
The Self Assessment flow is the best I have used.
Reporting is a bit light if you want to dig into the detail.
Freelance Consultant, Whitfield Consulting
I got it free through my NatWest business account and it does far more than I expected for nothing.
The self employed and Self Assessment side is far friendlier than anything else I tried.
It is aimed at smaller businesses, so you can outgrow it if you scale quickly.

Bank feeds pull everything in and the guesses at categories are usually right.

LinkedIn verifiedA year in and it runs smoothly. Getting it free with the bank makes the value a no brainer.

Support hours could be longer around deadlines.
