I was a power user of Free Agent, I moved over to Xero as my company had out grown Freeagent. This was this biggest mistake I made and the support was terrible, for three months I battled with payroll, once the technical support even had to reset my details.
Pros
Nice and simple but the UI is really poor and they clearly haven't invested their time in tax experts for payroll for the UK. Great for small companies.
Cons
Impossible to move from Freeagent to Xero and data import just fails

It is so easy to use but support has to come from Accountants who are not customer service or techies and who are not adequately compensated for their efforts. It is enjoyable to use and definitely does the basics very well.
Pros
For bookkeeping, small and medium-sized businesses this software is a dream. It is the most intuitive and easiest to use of all the accounting software that we reviewed. As an accountant, it is easy to fix user errors and mis-postings. There is a proper audit trail and safety checks built in. There are so many time-saving features like find and recode, repeating bills/invoices/journals, bank rules. The move toward AI is exciting too.
Cons
The software is expensive for what it is and you can get a lot more and better for your money with FreeAgent and QuickBooks.

Pros
Easy to setup and use - the mobile app is pretty good making it easy to add expenses. Bank feed is handy. I use the API to import expenses.
Cons
Expensive compared to competitors like Xero, bank feed is slow.

If you need this feature, its absence is a real killer. Xero seems to have it.
Pros
Interface is pretty good.
Cons
They say they are "working on" this crucial feature but a year later, nothing.
Hi there. FreeAgent has multi-currency, multi-language invoicing and as of early 2014 allows you to record bank accounts in a foreign currency also.
