Recommendations for free online accounting software?

Hi everyone,
I have just set myself up as a sole trader and am trying to keep costs as low as possible. I'm looking for a free (or v low cost) online accounting app, cloud service or software and was wondering what you would recommend. I've had a look at QuickFile and BrightBook but would be interested to hear about anyone else's experiences with them.
I'll be receiving international payments from a variety of sources: bank account, Paypal etc and will be invoicing in more than one currency, usually USD, EUR and GBP. It's just for me to use at the moment and I don't have a huge number of clients at this stage, so small scale is best.
If I did have to pay for a subscription service then my budget is £5-10 per month max. I don't have much experience with accounting and book keeping so the simpler the better.
Many thanks for your wise words of advice! I look forward to hearing from you.
Jenny

I would strongly recommend quickfile.co.uk
Its free to use, there are optional features & services that are paid for, but I've never had to use them.0
