I bought it for my SA business and that was my mistake to own. Support is lovely but the answer to missing features is a polite no.
Pros
Genuinely excellent support team
Cons
Useless for South African books. Currency workarounds in spreadsheets

Beautiful software with a very specific passport. The API is decent but the integration catalogue is thin next to the big names. Every UK filing deadline appears on the timeline months ahead.
Pros
Projects with time and cost tracking
Cons
Larger entities outgrow it

After 8 years the charm persists and so do the gaps. There is no SARS anything, this is UK tax software full stop.
Pros
UK VAT filed to HMRC in clicks
Cons
UK tax only, nothing for SARS

The support team answered my corporation tax question with patience and actual knowledge. Mileage and out of pocket expenses stopped leaking through the cracks. My UK company admin fear is gone. Worth every pound.

Cons
Multi currency is serviceable not central

We migrated a UK client from a shoebox to FreeAgent in a week and the books have been clean since. Dividend vouchers and the director loan account are handled properly for UK companies. If your clients are British, do your books like the British do.
Pros
Automatic invoice reminders that work; corporation tax estimates update live
Cons
Larger entities outgrow it

The tax timeline shows exactly what the company owes HMRC and when, which ended my quarterly panic. The mobile app covers the daily essentials without feeling like an afterthought. For SA freelancers with UK clients this is the answer.
Pros
Projects with time and cost tracking

My UK entity banks with Mettle so the software costs literally nothing. Corporation tax estimates update live, no surprises at year end. Recommended across our whole outsourcing team.
Pros
Bank rules automate the tagging; self assessment accumulates through the year

Charming until you need something outside its lane. Support is lovely but the answer to missing features is a polite no.
Pros
Tax timeline shows every deadline ahead
Cons
Board reporting hit the ceiling

Great at its job, its job is smaller than some expect. Mileage and out of pocket expenses stopped leaking through the cracks.
Cons
No inventory at all

We love using it and wince slightly when the pound billing lands. The pound subscription costs real rand when the exchange rate runs.
Cons
Larger entities outgrow it

My UK accountant works in the same file, so year end is a review rather than a rebuild. Recurring invoices with automatic chasing changed my collection rate completely.
Cons
Reporting stays deliberately shallow

We love using it and wince slightly when the pound billing lands. Reporting is friendly but shallow, accountants want more detail than it gives. Bank rules tag my regular transactions before I see them.
Cons
Multi currency is serviceable not central

For UK work it is superb, just do not ask it about South Africa. Multi currency exists but the heart of the product beats in pounds.
Pros
Free with certain UK business bank accounts; payroll for UK staff included
Cons
Larger entities outgrow it

After 2 years my UK company admin takes an hour a month. The mobile app covers the daily essentials without feeling like an afterthought. Projects track time and costs so I know which UK client actually pays for my month. If your clients are British, do your books like the British do.
Pros
UK VAT filed to HMRC in clicks; tax timeline shows every deadline ahead
Cons
Reporting stays deliberately shallow

For UK work it is superb, just do not ask it about South Africa. Reporting is friendly but shallow, accountants want more detail than it gives. Support replies read like they were written by someone who actually read my question.
