I'm using GnuCash, which is free, but its interface is really shit. However, it does handle doing business in more than one jurisdiction at once, so it has that goin' for it, which is nice. Are these ads you're describing talking about handling day-to-day bookkeeping, or tax return kinda stuff? DTD bookkeeping can be expensive (I do it all myself), but I have an accountant do my corporate tax returns (and help me with tax credit claims). I'm not sure how an "outsourced accounting department" will compare, especially if they are offshore (which would be a giant red flag).
