Pros & Cons

stampli

FreeAgent

Pros

  • Purpose-built for UK tax rules, including Making Tax Digital for VAT and Self Assessment
  • Free for business banking customers of NatWest, RBS, Ulster Bank, and Mettle
  • Combines invoicing, payroll, and cashflow forecasting in one subscription
  • Well-established accountant and bookkeeper ecosystem for practices with multiple clients
  • Backed by NatWest Group's resources while still operating as an independent product

Cons

  • Built specifically for UK tax and compliance rules, so it is of limited use outside the UK
  • Introductory discounted pricing reverts to a higher standard rate after the first months
  • Payroll and some add-ons cost extra on top of the base subscription
  • Feature depth for larger limited companies is lighter than dedicated enterprise accounting suites
