## Reviews

### "Pros and cons" — 3.0/5

> **Arianna** | *8 January 2026* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Good initial pricing, easy to set up. Straightforward everyday handling and simple, complete dashboard.
> 
> **Cons**: The self-employed version is very limited as for features and customisation. Poor sync functionality
> 
> Overall, the app is fairly good value for money, particularly during the initial period. Features for the self-employed version are however limited, lacking customisation (e.g. expense categories etc) and poorly adaptable to different kinds of businesses. The sync functionality with bank is very disappointing. There is no way to reliably set up what is relevant and how to record different suppliers, no chance to have categories remembered, even when defining defaults. Not very satisfied.

### "Easy to use, covers everything needed for a small business" — 5.0/5

> **Andrew** | *7 January 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's great value for money for our sized small business. Allows lots of easy quick wins and views of business position. This is especially true with regards to invoicing and receiving payments.
> 
> **Cons**: There haven't been many however they have just changed the dashboard which was slightly confusing for a short while as we learned to navigate this
> 
> We have used this for over 5 years compared to other products and haven't had more than two issues with it so great for speeding up working practices

### "Reliable and Easy to Use for Accounts and Payroll" — 5.0/5

> **Richey** | *28 August 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, well structured, straightforward invoicing along with receipt recording for expenses. Payroll has always been easy also and reporting simple.
> 
> **Cons**: Not much actually. When I first started using it was a step up from previous software so there weren't many issues with it.
> 
> Very positive whilst previously managing a different company. Whilst the market seems to have become more competitive now I thought QB was the software that made a difference to the speed and ease of use of having to deal with accounts and payroll. There were no major issues with it and it has become more sophisticated in recent years.

### "Three years in, and still working well for our small business." — 5.0/5

> **Martin** | *6 May 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The interface is easy to undertsand which is ideal if this is the first time runnign a business. The onboarding process and virtual support was particularly useful when we first started using the platform. The cashflow planner is a really useful feature, allowing us to track expected income and outgoings. Mileage tracking (via the mobile App) is a great feature.
> 
> **Cons**: The "projects" module is a paid upgrade, which would be nice as a basic feature with a starndard subscription, as this would allow our business to associate costs to projects, and monitor profitability in a better way.
> 
> Easy to use, reliable. The mobile App is useful to monitor the business when on the move, however IMO, the desktop experience is by far the most productive way to use the platform on a day-to-day basis. Mileage tracking (via the mobile App) turns a necessary chore into an easy task.

### "Feature-rich, easy and simple to use" — 5.0/5

> **Jack** | *22 October 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Simple to understand, feature rich and great integrations. The quickbooks platform is easy to navigate and use and makes it easy to be able to search for transactions and report on financial data with ease. Accepting payments and producing invoices is really easy.
> 
> **Cons**: Payroll specifically can be confusing and could be simplified. The layout is confusing and there is not enough help tips to understand each option. This could be made simpler with a wizard or something.
> 
> Generally my experience is overwhelmingly positive. Quickbooks helps me keep my business finances in check, automatically synchronises with my bank and helps me manage payroll, of which I wouldn't ordinarily know where to start with.
