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. Genuinely strong multi currency handling. 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. It is not perfect, and it is the right choice for us.

What works

Genuinely strong multi currency handling. Month end close has dropped from six days to two. Bank feeds match transactions accurately and the rules learn quickly.

What does not

Support response times slow noticeably at month end.

Used for 6 to 12 months

Migration was painful, the result was worth it

Our practice put four clients on this before we moved our own business across. Unlimited users on every plan, which no local competitor matches. 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

Unlimited users on every plan, which no local competitor matches. Invoices go out looking professional with no design work. Multi currency handling is genuinely correct on unrealised gains.

What does not

Inventory is too basic for a stock heavy business.

Used for 2 to 5 years

Finally a ledger our accountant does not complain about

I run the books for three related companies and this is the first system that has kept up. Genuinely strong multi currency handling. 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. It is not perfect, and it is the right choice for us.

What works

The best bank reconciliation experience in the category. VAT201 figures come out right without a manual working paper. Our accountant has their own login at no extra cost.

What does not

Support response times slow noticeably at month end.

Used for less than 6 months

Reconciliation went from a week to an afternoon

After two years I can say the reconciliation time saving is real and it is significant. Genuinely strong multi currency handling. 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

Genuinely strong multi currency handling. Bank feeds match transactions accurately and the rules learn quickly. Invoices go out looking professional with no design work.

What does not

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

Solid, boring, and that is exactly what I wanted

I run the books for three related companies and this is the first system that has kept up. Unlimited users on every plan, which no local competitor matches. 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

Genuinely strong multi currency handling. Month end close has dropped from six days to two. The audit trail has answered every query our auditors raised.
