Corporation Tax without the shock

It is free because we bank with NatWest, which is hard to argue with, and the Self Assessment figures for a director come out ready to file. It does not scale, there is no real stock control, but we live with it.

Pros

It is free because we bank with NatWest, which is hard to argue with.

Cons

It does not scale, there is no real stock control.

Made for contractors

Corporation Tax tracks as I go rather than as a year end shock. Built for a one person limited company in a way the big names are not.

Pros

Corporation Tax tracks as I go rather than as a year end shock.

Cons

The app ecosystem is much smaller than Xero.

Corporation Tax without the shock

The app ecosystem is much smaller than Xero, and the free tier is tied to keeping the bank account. Dividend documentation is handled without a separate template, which is about the only positive.

Pros

Dividend documentation is handled without a separate template.

Cons

The app ecosystem is much smaller than Xero.

The tax timeline is the killer feature

It is free because we bank with NatWest, which is hard to argue with. Only real gripe is that reporting depth is limited beyond the essentials.

Built for a one person limited company in a way the big names are not. Only real gripe is that a growing team will outgrow it and the move is a job.

The tax timeline is the killer feature

It is free because we bank with NatWest, which is hard to argue with. The tax timeline shows what is owed and when, so nothing surprises me.

Pros

Cons

It does not scale, there is no real stock control.
