It depends on your business size, sector and processes. We usually recommend Xero for most SMEs, FreeAgent for contractors, and QuickBooks for those wanting deep integrations — but we’ll guide you.

Can I switch from spreadsheets to cloud software mid-year?
Yes. We can import your existing data and set up a clean starting point — whether mid-year or at your year-end.

Yes. All platforms we support are fully HMRC-recognised for Making Tax Digital VAT submissions.
