It’s great with Hnry. I can ask any question I need to and know that it’s being answered by a qualified accountant. I feel like I’ve pestered them a bit because I was a total noob with tax.

Come tax time my traditional accountant would just give me all of this information in one big lump and say “all right off you go, have fun with that.” Now, with Hnry, it’s all done for me automatically.
