Wow, thanks for all the responses (although I feel I have started some kind of accountancy war!).
I have to say I love FreeAgent, it does everything I want, its fast, accessible from any device (even windows phone) and can do things like my Self Assesment. I have also used it for the past couple of years, so have a whole host of contacts, invoices, quotes and even integration into my own applications onsite.
So far, I have felt Crunch (the software) to be a little slow, and not as customisable. I will be giving my contact a shout at crunch to see if it is just me being daft. I suppose what I am after is an accountant who is able to tell me the kinds of tax efficencies I have missed. I do the whole 10k salary, dividends, expenses lark, but its the big unknown that would help.Kind Regards,

There are some differences in terms of back-office operation and availability of data / usability, but from a client's point of view, yes.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

I used Nixon Williams in my last contractor stint and I found their service very good.
I then went permie for the only time in my life (12 months) and decided to go back to contracting.
When going back I came across Crunch. I decided to give it a go as I liked the control through the UI and having an accountant when I needed for support when required.
My only gripe was the account reconciliation is non existent with Barclays but not too difficult to use. I would hope that they get this working with Barclays as they do with other banks.
5 years into using Crunch I would say I'm happy and will continue to use their service.Polishing a turd near you!!Comment

Been using them for a year or so. No problems at all. I find the system easy to use and whenever I've had an odd query they always respond same day.
Would definitely recommend.Comment
