Detailed review
Why accountants prefer it
Ubiquity. Almost every bookkeeper can open the file, which shortens month-end and reduces the cost of outside help.
Daily use
Bank feeds and rules automate most categorisation. Invoicing supports recurring billing, payment links and reminders, and receipt capture from mobile is reliable.
Annoyances
Pricing rises steadily, payroll and payments are separate charges, and the interface changes more often than long-time users like.
Verdict
Safe, well-supported and boring in the best way — which is what you want from your books.
