Switch from SASU to Auto-entrepreneur?

I have a small web-design business which was set up as an SASU 4 years ago. I usually have a gross income of around 10,000€ per year. I’m paying a French accountant 180€HT per month, which is a lot for such a small company. Several people have told me that it is crazy to have an SASU for such a small company, that I’d be much better off as an auto-entrepreneur. The accountant says the fact that I won’t be able to deduct expenses or get VAT back if I switch to an auto-entrepreneur make the SASU a better option for me, but I’m not convinced. What do you think? Is it worth me switching to an auto-entrepreneur in the long run? Also, my accountant has told me it will cost 1500€ in “fees to pay to court and corporate secretarial to dissolve a company.” This seems crazy expensive. They charged me 1000€ to set the company up. Should it cost more to close it down than it did to set it up?
