Do the five year sum
Whatever monthly price you’re quoted, multiply it by 60. At £15 a month that’s £900 over five years; at £25 it’s £1,500. (Round numbers to show the maths, check current prices.)
ACE Essentials is £249 + VAT once. Even adding the optional £79 + VAT a year update plan, for 4 years will total just £565 + VAT.

Pay once, own it forever
Your file, your records. Nothing disappears if you stop paying anyone.
No features you’ll never use. Built for sole traders, landlords and small businesses, not big companies with payroll and stock.
MTD ready. Quarterly figures prepared for HMRC compatible bridging software.
Optional updates. The annual compliance and update plan gives you a fresh version each year with legislative updates and video demonstrations for any changes. No tie in.

About Traci
I’ve worked in accountancy since I was 17, I’m AAT qualified, part CIMA qualified and a Microsoft Excel MVP.
What my customers say
What my customers say
I did the mini Excel course with Traci - 20 mins a day for 5 days. Traci can squeeze so much into 20 mins, it helps that she talks fast! I was familiar with most of the areas that we covered but there were still lots of little tips that I picked up. Traci has a genuine excitement about all things Excel and her enthusiasm is infectious. I'd recommend her courses to anyone looking to upskill.
Traci is amazing!!
She helped me to add formulas to a huge spreadsheet I’ve designed to use in my NHS job.
In 30 minutes the spreadsheet was transformed into a useable, time saving and accurate piece of work.
I’m very grateful for her help.
Traci is approachable, kind and knows her stuff.
I recommend her to anyone struggling with anything in Excel. She is patient - she needed to be with me, taking her time to explain and ensure I understood.
Thanks again Traci 🥰
The 5-day 20 minute sessions were very informative and easy to follow.
I have recently been on Traci's Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced Excel Workshops. I didn't know spreadsheets could be so much fun and you could do so much with them, once you have got your head around one. Tracie makes working with a spreadsheet a joy instead of a task. Her cheerful approach and easy-going manner are both professional and a breath of fresh air.
I had several absolutely excellent Excel intermediate and advanced sessions with Traci. She is extremely knowledgeable and makes the sessions fun and interactive ~ both face to face and virtual. I would definitely recommend Traci if you need some Excel training ~ she's excellent!
Traci was excellent in her Basic Excel workshops - she was really patient and made a scary subject feel really easy! This was such a valuable course which I would recommend anyone to try.
Traci at Excel Ace really knows her stuff, I've been using an amazing spreadsheet daily that she designed many many years ago to keep track of the workshops we are delivering and all the finances and forecasting. I couldn't recommend her services highly enough, she is just fantastic and so helpful also.
Traci has been training a number of our staff via zoom over the past few weeks, and everyone has greatly benefited from her encyclopaedic knowledge of all things excel. Very approachable and bubbly, she makes what could be a very dry subject, easy and fun.
Traci has done several sessions of training for me and my staff at Bevie. Whilst remaining absolutely professional has brought a fresh lease of life to excel and the great training has allowed the team to big great things and make better use of their days. Thanks Traci!
I took part in Traci's advanced Excel workship and found her insights into spreadsheets very accessible and time saving. Would definitely recommend!
