Finally a ledger our accountant does not complain about

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. 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

Reporting and budgeting well ahead of its price point. Multi currency handling is genuinely correct on unrealised gains. The audit trail has answered every query our auditors raised.

What does not

The interface has not aged well.

Used for 2 to 5 years

Solid, boring, and that is exactly what I wanted

Our practice put four clients on this before we moved our own business across. Large global template and app ecosystem. 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. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Reporting and budgeting well ahead of its price point. Month end close has dropped from six days to two. The audit trail has answered every query our auditors raised.

What does not

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

Used for 6 to 12 months

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. 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.

What works

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

What does not

Inventory is too basic for a stock heavy business.

VAT season stopped being a crisis

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.

Does the job, will not delight you

Good enough that changing again is not worth the disruption. Multi currency from the middle tier. 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. Good value, with some real rough edges.

What works

Large global template and app ecosystem. The core ledger is reliable.

What does not

Getting a person on the phone is difficult. Bank feeds drop and need reauthorising more often than they should.

Bank feeds alone justify the subscription

After two years I can say the reconciliation time saving is real and it is significant. 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. It is not perfect, and it is the right choice for us.

What works

Multi currency from the middle tier. Bank feeds match transactions accurately and the rules learn quickly. Invoices go out looking professional with no design work.

What does not

The interface has not aged well.

Reconciliation went from a week to an afternoon

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. 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. Month end close has dropped from six days to two. VAT201 figures come out right without a manual working paper.
