### "Good accounting software for small businesses"

October 4, 2024

5.0

I have been using Xero for over 15 years. I have worked for other clients who use other competitors and this is by far the best user experience. I also think the pricing is fair and transparent.

Pros

Easier to use than most on the market and for a small business does everything I need. Including VAT submission.

Cons

I think if you have limited accounting experience it would be hard to set up. But once you are up and running it is easy to maintain.
