Bank feeds alone justify the subscription

I run the books for three related companies and this is the first system that has kept up. Multi currency from the middle tier. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Reporting and budgeting well ahead of its price point. Our accountant has their own login at no extra cost. Multi currency handling is genuinely correct on unrealised gains.

What does not

Reporting beyond the standard pack still ends up in a spreadsheet.

Finally a ledger our accountant does not complain about

We moved across from a desktop package eighteen months ago and I would not go back. Reporting and budgeting well ahead of its price point. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

Large global template and app ecosystem. Month end close has dropped from six days to two. Bank feeds match transactions accurately and the rules learn quickly.

What does not

Inventory is too basic for a stock heavy business.

Does the compliance work without being asked

After two years I can say the reconciliation time saving is real and it is significant. Multi currency from the middle tier. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. If you are weighing it up, do the trial with your own data and you will see it.

What works

The best mobile receipt capture in the category. VAT201 figures come out right without a manual working paper. Invoices go out looking professional with no design work.

What does not

Reporting beyond the standard pack still ends up in a spreadsheet.

Migration was painful, the result was worth it

I run the books for three related companies and this is the first system that has kept up. The best mobile receipt capture in the category. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

What works

Reporting and budgeting well ahead of its price point. Bank feeds match transactions accurately and the rules learn quickly. The audit trail has answered every query our auditors raised.

What does not

Inventory is too basic for a stock heavy business.

Works well once you accept its limits

It has been fine, with a couple of persistent irritations. Large global template and app ecosystem. Beyond that it is more ordinary than the marketing suggests. It sits squarely in the middle for us, useful but not something I would champion. I would shortlist it, not necessarily pick it.

What works

The best mobile receipt capture in the category. The core ledger is reliable.

What does not

The report customisation is limited. There is no direct submission to eFiling, so the return is captured by hand.

Good ledger, disappointing reporting

It has been fine, with a couple of persistent irritations. Large global template and app ecosystem. Beyond that it is more ordinary than the marketing suggests. It sits squarely in the middle for us, useful but not something I would champion. Fine for our needs. Test it properly against your own requirements.

What works

Large global template and app ecosystem. Invoicing is quick once the templates are set.

What does not

Getting a person on the phone is difficult. The report customisation is limited.

Reconciliation went from a week to an afternoon

Our practice put four clients on this before we moved our own business across. Reporting and budgeting well ahead of its price point. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. If you are weighing it up, do the trial with your own data and you will see it.
