Best free accounting I found

The VAT returns submit fine under MTD and the bank tagging is quick once you set the rules up.

Solid for a small business

It handles invoicing and VAT well. You move onto the small paid tier as you get busier, which is fair.

Good value, clunky in places

The price is unbeatable and it works, but the interface feels old and some tasks take more clicks than they should.

When I got stuck the community forum had an answer within the hour. You do not expect that from free software.

Great value with a dated look

Hard to argue with free. The interface is a bit old fashioned but it does everything a small business needs.

Free and surprisingly capable

I run a small trade business and QuickFile costs me nothing. The invoices look professional and bank tagging saves hours.
