Ten years of my company history sits in it, intact and searchable. The community forum has an answer for nearly everything, usually from the developers themselves. It just works, year after year, for nothing.
Pros
Developers answer on the forum; branded client portal on invoices

Excellent value wrapped in a dated jacket. The mobile experience is a responsive website, not an app. It is UK first in every default, other jurisdictions are guests.
Cons
Extra clicks in common workflows

Free sets expectations low and the ledger clears them easily. The interface is functional and firmly unfashionable.
Pros
Multiple currencies supported; no upsells or nags

We moved a client off a paid platform and they asked what the catch was. There is not one. Underneath the plain screens is a proper double entry ledger that satisfies accountants. Recurring invoices and payment reminders run without attention. The most rational software spend in our practice: nearly none.
Pros
No upsells or nags; email in receipt capture

We like the price, tolerate the screens, respect the engine. New staff take longer to find their feet than on prettier products. The interface is functional and firmly unfashionable.
Cons
Dated, functional interface

Free sets expectations low and the ledger clears them easily. New staff take longer to find their feet than on prettier products. Reports cover the accounts an accountant needs at year end.
Pros
Clever bank tagging rules; uK VAT filing included free
Cons
Forum first support model

Multiple currencies on a free product still surprises me every time I invoice in euros. The API let us automate our monthly recurring billing completely. Underneath the plain screens is a proper double entry ledger that satisfies accountants. Function beat fashion, we bank the difference.
Pros
Email in receipt capture

The VAT return files to HMRC directly and has never once been queried. The API let us automate our monthly recurring billing completely. Recommended for every simple UK entity we handle.
Pros
Multiple currencies supported; developers answer on the forum
Cons
Extra clicks in common workflows

The product is stronger than it looks, and it looks like 2012. It is UK first in every default, other jurisdictions are guests.
Cons
Extra clicks in common workflows

After 7 years the quirks feel like home, mostly. Some workflows take three clicks where rivals take one.
Cons
UK defaults everywhere

The learning curve cost us more than a subscription would have. Our junior captured a month backwards because the screens confused her.
Pros
A decade of history kept intact
Cons
Edge cases stuck in forum threads

The learning curve cost us more than a subscription would have. Our junior captured a month backwards because the screens confused her. No phone number to call when the return deadline loomed.
Cons
No phone support at deadline time

The free tier is not a demo, it is the whole product for smaller books. The community forum has an answer for nearly everything, usually from the developers themselves. Underneath the plain screens is a proper double entry ledger that satisfies accountants. Function beat fashion, we bank the difference.
Pros
Multiple currencies supported; email in receipt capture

Multiple currencies on a free product still surprises me every time I invoice in euros. It never nags, never upsells mid task, never surprises the debit order.
Pros
No upsells or nags; power User costs almost nothing yearly
Cons
Direct support costs extra

Forum support met its limits exactly when we did.
Pros
Clever bank tagging rules
Cons
Confusing screens caused capture errors. No phone support at deadline time

Excellent value wrapped in a dated jacket. Support means the forum, direct help is a paid extra.
Cons
Assumes bookkeeping knowledge

We like the price, tolerate the screens, respect the engine. Ledger size limits eventually push everyone to Power User, which is fair.
Pros
Free tier is the complete product
Cons
No real mobile app

The VAT return files to HMRC directly and has never once been queried. The value is so good it feels like a loophole.
Pros
