South Africa Used for 1–2 years

2 years in and still happy

As a designer who fears spreadsheets, this is the first accounting software that made sense. The mobile app covers the daily essentials without feeling like an afterthought. My UK company admin fear is gone. Worth every pound.

Pros

Bank rules automate the tagging; tax timeline shows every deadline ahead

Cons

No inventory at all

Freelancing for UK clients from Bloemfontein made easy

Beautiful software with a very specific passport. Multi currency exists but the heart of the product beats in pounds.

Pros

Self assessment accumulates through the year; uK VAT filed to HMRC in clicks

Serving our George operation well

The dashboard shows profit, tax owed and cash in one honest screen. Projects track time and costs so I know which UK client actually pays for my month.

Cons

Larger entities outgrow it

Working well for our 22 person team

As a designer who fears spreadsheets, this is the first accounting software that made sense. Every UK filing deadline appears on the timeline months ahead. Support replies read like they were written by someone who actually read my question.

Healthcare South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Good decision for a 15 person company

I contract for UK clients from Midrand and FreeAgent runs my limited company without drama. Projects track time and costs so I know which UK client actually pays for my month.

Pros

Genuinely excellent support team

Cons

UK tax only, nothing for SARS

Accounting · 1–10 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Still glad we chose it, 5 years later

We migrated a UK client from a shoebox to FreeAgent in a week and the books have been clean since. Payroll for my one UK employee runs inside the same product. Dividend vouchers and the director loan account are handled properly for UK companies. My UK company admin fear is gone. Worth every pound.

Pros

Projects with time and cost tracking; self assessment accumulates through the year
