Pros & Cons
The following pros and cons come from Trustpilot and other third-party review sites from around the web.
Pros
- Ember offers its free account to both sole traders and limited companies.
- Ember’s Pro plan for sole traders is one of the cheaper paid accounts on the market.
- The Pro and Unlimited plans are Making Tax Digital-compliant.
- Ability to submit VAT tax returns directly to HMRC with the Pro and Unlimited plans.
- Every Ember plan comes with discounts on other business tools and services.
Cons
- The free Starter plans are not MTD-compliant, and you will not be able to sign up for that plan if your business is VAT-registered. This means you cannot submit your VAT returns directly to HMRC if you are on a free plan.
- There is currently no multi-user access, regardless of which plan you are on.
- Ember’s full payroll function is only available to limited companies paying for the Unlimited plan and as a paid extra
- There is no built-in cash-flow forecasting function, regardless of your plan.
