bridging software for mtd, still on sage and trying to figure out the simplest way to stay compliant without migrating everything
been contracting for a few years now and my accountant has been nudging me to sort out my mtd setup properly before it becomes a problem. i'm on sage at the moment and while it does the job i'm not convinced i need everything it offers for what is essentially just me managing invoices, expenses and quarterly vat submissions.
the way i see it i have two options. either switch to something built for mtd properly from the ground up or just use bridging software to connect what i already have to hmrc without rebuilding the whole setup. the bridging route appeals because it means less disruption but i'm not sure if that's actually the smarter long term call or just the easier short term one.
has anyone here gone through this decision as a contractor and landed on an approach they're happy with? specifically interested in whether bridging held up well enough that switching wasn't worth the hassle.
