Great Accounting App
Compared to many other accounting systems i have used and viewed, this is by far the easiest system to use. As a novive in accounting systems i was able to use it with ease from day one. Tha advantage of having no software to download, install, configure and support on my desktop makes this a BIG PLUS for me as my system is short on memory so having installed and supported at a central point is the way to go!
Pros
Ease of use everything about it is designed for simplicity, without looing any critical features.
Cons
When i want to make a change to a statment i am so used to using a right mouse click, not a left click. I know i am being a little pissy about this but it is the only thing that i can say i mildly dislike. But it aint a big issue.

Cheap and nasty
Cons
Where to start? Lacking some very basic capabilities and options. Un-intuitive interface. Slow to react and update. Frequent outages and malfunctions. Customer service will make you want to cry or worse - you get the distinct feeling that "we don't give a care" is the company's moto. In three years there hasn't been a single improvement to the interface.

Great for small businesses
Arithmo is very good value, user friendly and helps small businesses to keep track of their finances as part of the everyday routine. It also saves money on accountancy
Pros
You can use as many or as few of the features as you need for your purposes, and it is easy to adapt them to your own way of recording information ('clients' can become projects, for instance, so you can effectively create cost centres)
Cons
It would be great if you could automatically feed information through from income to expenditure rather than input everything twice to create new (clients/suppliers/projects) - sometimes you want to track income and expenditure for the same things

Arithmo - Online
Pleasant layout. Fairly intuitive. Has a basic feel, but that is deceptive. It produces really good reports, such as P&L and Balance sheet. It has a full audit trail. The ETB for accountants is excellent.
Pros
It is easy to use for customers and the price is fantastic value. The support is excellent. The fact that we, as accountants can log on and use all facilities is very useful.
Cons
It has a few quirks, but it seems the new version will iron these out. I wish it used the keyboard more. I love TAS Books for that. No mouse waving!

ARITHMO - easier than you think
This is a simple accounting/book-keeping software for the smaller business. It allows you to keep your business books via an online app that you can access from any web browser no matter where you are located. Its good for the sole trader right through to a VAT Registered Limited Company and its so cost effective its almost too good to be true.
Pros
On line app Someone else takes care of system admin and maintenance. Simple
Cons
Slightly confusing to get to grips with Payment method defaults to cash

Good, but could be better
I have found Arithmo to be a fairly good book keeping system, but feel that some of the functions are not very clearly explained, and not particularly intuitive. Some fuller explanations on the different applications would be useful, and a quicker response time when making queries would be advantageous.
Pros
Efficient, reasonably comprehensiv, good price
Cons
Response time very slow (usually 24hrs+) , Not enough explanation about some of the functions, FAQ's not at all useful

Ideal Accounting Software
Consolidate the VAT of all invoices has been our salvation, is one of the great successes we have had with this software

It is an easy to use software, it does not need any previous training, it does not require installation, nor configuration, it is excellent to carry billing, since the VAT calculation is automated, it is also a very economic software
Cons
Frequently asked questions should be changed and adapted according to the doubts that regular users present

Accounting Software Review
Find it exceedingly easy to use. I like the layout of the screen as every facility is accessible. It is logically presented.
Pros
The page gives you every facility of moving around the whole programme. If there is a problem with the page you are on down the right hand side there are easily understood directions of how to use that particular page.
Cons
On the contrary, I do not have any complaints and love using it.

Arithmo Online Accounting Solution
Good features and easy to use.
Pros
Almost everything.
Cons
If I was being hyper-critical I suppose I would say the GUI could be a bit prettier. Nevertheless, it is well laid out and intuitive.

We are a small farming business but our income comes mainly from a busy self catering poperty
As somebody in my early seventies who has picked up how to use a computer as I go along I find this package indispensable. I did need some help to get accustomed to the system, not surprising in the circumstances.
Pros
Simplicity
Cons
Nothing
