Accounting For The Small Business
Pros
Easy to use, intuitive and with great reporting tools that allow me to keep on top of my business performance. Invoicing to clients, profit and loss reports, VAT returns, keep up to date on cash flow and knowing how my business is performing every day
Cons
I want to be able to compare this YTD performance with LYTD performance and that isn't possible to do

Safe Accounting for accounting done right!
Extremely happy with it. We changed software to Jobpac due to a business merge.
Pros
Excellent software, lots of options that you can do on it which is completely the opposite to MYOB per example. It integrates with all other softwares including expense claim management systems, payroll systems etc… Easy to use, easy to manage, easy to run reports from it. Staff have been mentioning also that it’s not a slow system. They seem to have a great server which makes a big difference on the daily basis usage.
Cons
A big pricey but I guess you have to pay the right price when it comes to accounting software!

SAGE 50 Accounts - NFP
Overall it is very positive. The software is mostly reliable and the support team, if required, are always helpful. The online help guides are very useful too.
Pros
We like that it is intuitive and has a specific accounting module for us as a charity - fund accounting and gift aid functionality.
Cons
We have a problem at every year end (last 5 years) when rolling the balances forward on the restricted funds (new opening balances on Balance Sheet). They are always incorrect, causing our opening balance sheet to be wrong (balances of unrestricted funds and restricted funds) and we have to manually adjust them - something our Auditors are not keen on and we have to get additional checks done in order for our accounts to be signed off. This has been looked at several times but SAGE support, and our data submitted to them for review, but they cannot resolve for us. Very frustrating and a huge admin task for us at year end when we are already busy.
