ACCOUNTANCY PRACTICE SOFTWARE

Likle many others, Im looking to invest in some accounts production software and taxation software for around 150 sole traders, 20 partnership and 20 limited co's. All in all around 200 individual tax returns.

My main concern presently is that I'm wasting too much time in compiling limited company accounts and also preparing tax estimates using spreadshet formalae which are created personally and are crude and need updating each year.

Iris gets good reviews but the annual cost is extremely high. Digita seems to get good reviews but is still costly if not quite as high.

I'm therefore in the market

2 products which seem to offer the right product at the right price are packages from Keytime and Pinacle however I don't know of anyone using them.

Curious to know what other firms are using and their thoughts on other packages particularly those who have used Keytime or Pinacle

Looking to ideally spend no more than £1500 annually.
