For the price jump over the entry plan I expected more than bills and a seat count. The feed dropped in October and reconnecting duplicated a fortnight of transactions.
Cons
Currency rounding created audit work

We are a 6 person services firm and Essentials fits us like it was measured. Three users, bills and forex for R508 is hard to argue with.
Pros
Recurring bills post automatically; seamless upgrade from Simple Start

Our feed issues landed in the worst weeks both times.
Cons
Tier gaps engineered to force upgrades

Good value with an asterisk or two. The bank feed needed reconnecting three times this year, always at busy moments.
Pros
Three simultaneous users with audit trail; seamless upgrade from Simple Start
Cons
Multi currency rounding needs watching

Support turned a small setup problem into a three week saga. We needed one report the tier does not include and the answer was always upgrade. The feed dropped in October and reconnecting duplicated a fortnight of transactions.
Cons
Feed drops duplicated weeks of data. Currency rounding created audit work

Cash flow stopped being a monthly surprise once the bills went into the system. Payment scheduling means suppliers get paid on terms, not when someone remembers.
Pros
Aged creditors and debtors reports
Cons
Multi currency rounding needs watching

The accountant logs in monthly, reviews, adjusts and leaves, no file swapping ever. The books finally feel like a system instead of a scramble.
Pros
Three simultaneous users with audit trail
Cons
Some screens feel American by default
