Bank reconciliation is the fastest I have used, a month clears in minutes, and CIS calculations for subcontractors are handled properly. Reporting is clean but less customisable than I expected, but we live with it.

Start on Grow, not Ignite
Payroll is included from the Grow plan so we dropped a second subscription, and CIS calculations for subcontractors are handled properly. The fixed asset register is functional rather than good, but we live with it.
Pros
Payroll is included from the Grow plan so we dropped a second subscription.
Cons
The fixed asset register is functional rather than good.

Fast month end, every time
Our accountant knows it inside out so support is never a problem, and bank reconciliation is the fastest I have used, a month clears in minutes. No complaints so far.
Pros
Our accountant knows it inside out so support is never a problem.
Cons
Inventory is basic, we run a separate app for real stock control.

Solid, with a weak entry tier
Bank reconciliation is the fastest I have used, a month clears in minutes. The app marketplace connected our stock system in an afternoon.

Reconciliation is unmatched
Mixed. Unlimited users means the whole team can be in the books without a fee, but most businesses need to start on Grow, not the headline entry plan.

The nicest accounting software to use
The introductory discount ends and the standard price is a jump. Inventory is basic, we run a separate app for real stock control. Looking at alternatives.
Pros
Payroll is included from the Grow plan so we dropped a second subscription.
Cons
The introductory discount ends and the standard price is a jump.

Unlimited users is a real saving
Unlimited users means the whole team can be in the books without a fee. MTD VAT submissions have never once given us trouble.
Pros
Unlimited users means the whole team can be in the books without a fee.
Cons
The Ignite tier is far too tight, twenty invoices a month is nothing.
