An excellent online tool for managing a small business, with much of its functions being automated and performing efficiently. However, it seems to have shifted from providing valuable consulting and accounting advice to merely offering a software service. I don't receive the in-depth tax advice needed for maximizing business efficiency. Interactions with accountants often feel like checklist exercises rather than insightful discussions. Given the cost, this aspect falls somewhat short of expectations.
Excellent online accounting platform and customer services

You had obviously done background checks into my business before the call so all that discussed was relevant

Great digital platform to run a small business from. Most of it is automated and works really well.
But what used to be an accountancy with good consulting advise has turned into a company offering a software platform. I do not feel that I get any serious tax advise that makes me optimise my business. Most of the interaction with accountants feels like speaking to juniors who run through a check list.
For the price they ask for this is a bit disappointing

Really friendly and knowledgable people, would highly recommend.

Honestly, cannot believe what a shambles.
I had a free trial for a month - where I was unable to login to my account. Someone from their support team sent me a link to add a password, I logged in and it was someone else's business information in there. Absolutely crazy breach of data. I will be asking them to delete my data immediately.
This was after being harassed by them by phone and having to tell them to stop throughout my trial period.
Also they sent me a survey monkey to fill in another area of data - so behind the scenes I imagine it's a manual mess.

Been with CRUNCH for almost 2 years now.
Clumsy software - seems easy, but you sill need to file a lot by yourself
The accountants work for them and not really for you.
I am planning to change tax accountant - hence my 2 stars review

Faultless service, very quick to respond and deal with any query we have as a small business. Brilliant.

Glenn provided great support in preparing my company’s books for year end. His time helped me understand my tax position and made the whole process straightforward.

Great service from Glenn Cobb who helped me with my Self-Assessment

Have used Crunch while self employed and always found them helpful and efficient. No longer using them as no longer self employed but received a proactive call from a chap called Rob today checking whether I needed their help and he put my mind at rest re whether or not I need to fill in a self assessment this year. The peace of mind was both free and invaluable. They are good guys

Narendra was extremely helpful in supporting me to reconcile my accounts and gave clear instructions, as well as being friendly and professional.

I’ve been with Crunch for many years. I find them reliable and helpful but you do have to ask for support when you need it. I especially liked their tax optimiser call this year. Loads of useful tips to be efficient with my taxes.

Ross Martin was great helping me optimise tax and any other questions I had. Super knowledgable and followed up actions straight away and provided me with a summary. Great service from Ross

update.
I've changed this from 2 to 4, as they said person assigned to the issue was losing the conversation thread as I was replying to support email address and every time I did it was being assigned to back of the queue..... It shouldn't take me complaining on trust pilot to get support but when I did the response where fast and accounts now filed all questions resolved.

Glenn was superb.
Knowledgeable, and patient. But mostly super humble and empathetic to the trials and tribulations of the contractor world.
These guys genuinely want to get the best outcome for their clients!

Unfortunately, I've had the worst experience with Crunch — poor advice and terrible customer service has meant the company will miss submission deadlines. If your needs are beyond basic accountancy, you'd be better off finding another accountant as Crunch don't appear to be equipped to deal with more complex matters at all. I've been going back and forth for *months* to try and resolve outstanding issues, but I've just been passed from person to person without anything actually being actioned. I have complained now, several times, but the matter still remains unresolved. I'm beyond frustrated, and incredibly disappointed at the level of service from this (supposedly) professional organisation.
