I have spent literally years trying to find the right accounting app for me, as a freelancer. At this point, I've used about all of them. I tried QB Freelancer in it's first year and it had far too many bugs. I used Harvest but it didn't have all the features I needed. I tried Freshbooks but it just didn't work and it lacked features. These other platforms all want to just be an expensive cog with a million addons or are just too case-specific or just plain buggy. Frustrated to the point of just using good ol' excel sheets, I found FreeAgent. These guys do just about everything perfectly. It honestly is hard to express that. They had a slightly older UI when I started, but they're already working on a new one (I'm in the Beta, and it's awesome). I have my invoicing, time tracking, expense tracking, and all the important stuff right in front of me. I have the usual big-options for getting paid, paypal & stripe, plus banking details for check-payment on the invoice. It will automatically match bank transactions to payments where possible. You can link 1 huge payment to multiple separate invoices (and it keeps track to make sure you don't get underpaid). There is multi-user support, so I can have employees/contractors work within my business to track their working hours and manage invoicing smoothly and efficiently. I can rebill expenses, with markup to clients. There's reports, which I use all the time to get a quick glance at what the next round of invoices should look like. I can get account statuses/summaries for any delinquent clients, and it is just amazing. No other platform I've worked with had all of these features. None of them were this affordable. And none of them were working this hard on improving their product.

I felt heard. The first person I spoke to found the specialist to solve my problem but also stayed in touch. So I didn't feel as if I was being passed around. It was a seemless, simple & pleasant experience!

FreeAgent has really helped me keep track of everything. However, I would love to be able to do the following: - Upload multiple files simultaneously when attaching files to Invoices. - Ability to delete files automatically in single-use scenarios (Receipts for Invoice etc.) - Connect Expenses to my Bank Accounts - Ability to connect Expenses stated on an Invoice to my Expenses in general

Very good system, easy to use. But limited in the current globalized world. Two examples: - You dont allow multicurrency bills, but most of our trading in international not only for clients but for providers, freelancers etc. most of them don't bill in pounds, which creates a lot of hurdles to add their bills. - Related to that, we have revolut multi-currency accounts. While their integration is super good, I cannot pay an euro bill with my euro account and settle automatically, as you don't allow it as the bill is not in euros.

It works well, but updating or changing information on the Freeagent App is very limited...you can't even click when an Invoice has been paid... it could do with lots more basic editing features.. The biggest thing that annoys me is the 3rd Party bank feed link, which always seems to have issues and I loose accounting data periods that then have to be manually input! I'm an HSBC customer....

The best thing about Freeagent is the tax return and the simple interface. The integrations and API could be a lot better to allow more automation with other apps and processes - opening this up for many more triggers and actions for tools such as Zapier would massively increase my satisfaction with the product. Also on the app, specific functionality and improvement to the UI when sending invoices would help as I am never sure if when I send an invoice in the future has sent or scheduled. I'd really like to be able to link expenses and hours to invoices on the app. I'd also like a better way of linking photos of receipt items that take sometimes up to 5 days to show on the bank statement Being able to forward invoices to Freeagent to be scheduled to pay would be really helpful. I'd love to have more insight in projects and see how they are performing at a top level.

Makes day to day bookkeeping jobs easy. Could do with a delivery note function though which would make it 10 stars.

It just works and makes sense. The UI is a pleasure to work with and if there is something that you need advice on, support is very responsive and thoughtful. This is the 3rd business I am using FreeAgent on and everyone business partner I introduce is also seeing how FreeAgent can make their life a lot easier, especially when it comes to estimate, Project tracking, reconciling bank accounts and running payroll. Keep up the good work!

I used to take a day off per week to do my invoices and other accounts administration. I no longer need to do this, once a job is complete, I can send an invoice in minutes. An excellent resource.
