Better than Quickbooks in terms of reconciling bank account, and bringing the feed in reliably, but this assumption against large numbers of individual customers is a deal breaker.
Reconciles some invoice payments that only need approval, an improvement on Quickbooks.
Very clunky for adding customers for invoicing. If you have lots of "retail" customers as I do, and send invoices to large numbers of customers, setting them up is a pain, the system seems to assume that you have a small number of commercial customers with multiple contacts at those companies. When making a new invoice you have to go through an alphabetical list of companies, you can't search, and for ease I made that entry an email address. This now means that of course not all people have an email address that is clearly them/their name. Irritating and enough to make me look elsewhere.

Does what it's supposed to. Lots of functionality with more control than quickbooks. Reports are nice.
Bank transactions never automatically imported. Created random transactions based on categorization of others. Overall, each of its functions seem to function better independently than they integrate.

I love how it links to my bank account and easily allows me to enter bills and mark them paid. Some trickier transaction types were not obvious but the help screen is comprehensive.
I haven't found an account reconciliation feature. I am used to that with QuickBooks and would like to have it here. It's possible there is a reconciliation feature and I haven't spotted it yet.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. It's great to see that you're enjoying using our product! Regarding account reconciliation - have a read through this article and hopefully it will help you get set up with everything you need. https://support.freeagent.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115001222444-Bank-Reconciliation If you have any difficulty please email support@freeagent.com and someone will be happy to help!
