I have been using it for 4+ years. If you have got a budget I would recommend using it.
- It syncs automatically my business bank account to transactions
- I can do payroll which is automatically submitted to HMRC
- I can do also Self Assessment which is automatically submitted to HMRC
- It helps with Corporation Tax Return (CT600) form
- You can add more users if you need to manage your accounts e.g. an accountant

I have been using it since March.
In short, I greatly prefer it to using spreadsheets and debating stuff with accountants.
It gives me clarity on how all my transaction should be treated.
For example, drop down lists of options that are arcane knowledge I could not be bothered to even know exist before.
It keeps running totals of tax liabilities too.
It submits VAT on a couple of a button clicks - something you must use software for now anyway.
Used it once already to submit a corporation tax return (CT600).
They keep the software up to date with tax changes.
In fact, I have already benefited by much more than the cost of it from temporary tax benefits that it pointed out on capex as we came out of the lockdowns.
Also it is fast, so trying things out to understand it does not feel like so much of a chore.
At the cost of a little time invested in learning how to use it, it has saved me money and time.
You will need to understand a little more about accounting than if you use a spreadsheet and accountant, but I think you are going to end up being forced to do use software eventually, so better now.

I've been using it for several years now and I've found it a breeze to use. I had some issues early on, but one was down to me miscategorising a few items and the other was due to invoices been raised before "FreeAgent day" and being paid afterwards.
I previously used to use a spreadsheet but it became a nightmare to ensure that I had got all the formulas right and correctly cross linked. I used to employ an accountant to create and file to HMRC and companies house for me.
I file 'realtime' payroll every month with a few clicks, and will be filing my CT600 with HMRC direct from FreeAgent this year. It will even do your tax return, if you have no other outside income (from rental property for example).

I find it an incredibly easy to use and friendly package.
I actually get it provided to me as part of the Accountancy service I pay my accountant for monthly.
When I start a contract, I go in, add the clients contact details, and a project in the projects section, then when a pocket of work is finished, I log in, add an invoice and click email.
My dash board shows me my yearly break down, profit and loss, company bank account level, any VAT payments due and all in a not accountant easy to understand way.
The ONLY bad thing I have to say about it, is some of the lesser used options are buried in strange menu paths that sometimes don't make sense, and require a bit of looking for, the day to day stuff though..... all easy to use and find.

Thank you all for the feedback.
It sounds like a good option for me:
- I want to keep the need for accountants to a minimum
- I want my submissions to HMRC, etc. to be as easy and automated as possible
- I want to spend as little time as possible on the admin stuff

Nice clue
It still works with fuzz, although it is a stretch.
I have nothing much in my CCC storage, so can not do tomorrow, so going to have to leave this one for someone else to solve.

It jumps out as soon as I see solution. I had no idea ado is a word. I knew young man is definition, the French is le but I simply could not think of the word for young man.

I almost everyday hear "without further ado" and yet I could not connect the dots. This really unimportant paying job task is coming in way of CCC solving. I should protest somewhere.
