July 29, 2022

### "One of the best cloud based accounting apps available"

July 12, 2017

5.0

Time saving in bank reconciliation

Pros

Auto import of bank transactions for simple, easy reconciliation. Very easy to set up and very flexible in the use of a standard chart of accounts or use your own.

Cons

Does not handle projects and/or jobs very well although with a bit of thought can work around. Don't like how contacts database can very easily get out of control by the automatic addition of new nonsense contacts created from bank transaction imports. Waiting for a Project/Job Costing module to be added. Payroll not as slick as rest of the accounting app.

### "Great payroll management tool"

November 23, 2022

4.0

It has made the task of administering payroll much smoother and done away with having to create payslip documents and entering numbers into a spreadsheet.

Pros

Having previously input payroll figures straight into a PAYE system, Xero makes things much more straight forward and also makes more sense.

Cons

The link between Xero and Nest Pensions has been problematic at times and I had resorted to just marking pensions as ;'filed' instead of relying on the link.

### "Xero, organising your financials"

December 19, 2019

5.0

Organising our invoices and making notes on each one so that any team member can manage bad debt and chase outstanding invoices.

Pros

I love the simple layout. On the dashboard you can see clearly, outstanding invoices and overdue invoices. This is essential for our team to access these numbers quickly and clearly.

Cons

Help and support isn't easy to access and there is only one 'how to' video.

### "Amazing accounting software"

February 4, 2019

5.0

Pros

Love this software-- would prefer it over any other accounting software out there. It's user friendly, has a clean/organized dashboard, and is compatible with many other third party softwares.

Cons

Would like to see some updates in the manual journals and reporting features. This is the only thing I think QBO does better in over Xero. Overall, still an amazing software that I recommend to ALL of my clients.

### "An attractive, solid cloud-based accounting package with some shortcomings"

March 7, 2018

4.0

Pros

Comprehensive and easy to use for general business needs. Well laid-out and designed UI. Good permissions structure. Ability to create great print templates.

Cons

Invoice module has some shortcomings for businesses that require personalization. Multiple shipping addresses are not permitted. Some basic fields do not carry from the Quote to the Invoice.

### "Good product, poorly supported"

September 14, 2018

3.0

Pros

Simple to use, many tasks automated. Keeps tracks of invoices, graphs cash flow, live banks feeds allow up to date profit and loss statements.

Cons

Customer support is poor. Emails response only, eight hours ish. During this 2 step authentification process I have been locked out of xero. Cannot process invoices, make payments nor call anyone to for help. My accountant's Xero account manager wont answer the phone, meanwhile Ive been unable to access my accounts for three days. Have no choice but to use another provider and start again.

### "Zero errors in expenses management in Xero!"

December 15, 2022

4.0

Pros

I have to claim my expenses every week and I can also track my receivables and payments on Xero. Extremely helpful and I do not have to make notes on a diary like I used to earlier.

Cons

I can only raise 20 invoices in the starter plan which I am not happy with as the pricing is not too cheap in the first place.

### "Makes bookkeeping and automating a P&L sheet so easy"

December 14, 2016

5.0

I signed up for Xero to help keep my own books for my businesses, and so that I could easy create Profit and Loss sheets for my various ventures. It's affordable and easy to use. If you're familiar with Mint, it's very similar in how you categorize transactions and set up rules. And the Xero team was really helpful when I was just getting started. Totally worth it.

Pros

Affordable, easy to set up, intuitive, good support people

Cons

Still takes a bit of time to get everything set up, but that's to be expected when setting up anything accounting related

### "Flawless!"

January 10, 2019

5.0

Pros

Xero offers everything expected and required from accounting software, plus a lot more! There are also hundreds if not thousands of integrations with third party platforms and services.

Cons

Competitors such as Quickbooks offer better promotional deals, but do not have as good integration with other providers.

### "Accounting All In One Place"

February 15, 2019

4.0

In summary, Xero is a great way to manage your finances, with their platform providing a simple way to keep track of what's important.

Pros

Xero provides a centralised platform for all bookkeeping and accounting needs. It's easy to use, and has a clear interface, along with a wide range of available integrations. Even without much experience in accounting, Xero allows us to simply keep track of all invoices using their clear environment.

Cons

The monthly cost of Xero can be considered quite high.

### "Nice for people in the financial industry"

October 19, 2019

5.0

Pros

I integrated an application that was using the Xero API and Xero was awesome. Support is on point when you get stuck with things and I would say that the system is very user-friendly as It is not difficult to figure out things. Also, they are really well documented in my opinion.

Cons

There isn't really something that I can add here at this time.

### "Trying to use customer support!"

March 20, 2018

1.0

Would be great if the customer support responses were faster than 24 hours!

Pros

My accountant likes it and uses it to speed up the reconciling. I like how it connects with VEND and other apps.

Cons

Trying to get support is a hassle as it takes days to get anything resolved due to the slow responses. They don't read and understand what I'm saying as ask questions about things i've already given answer too.

### "Dissapointing software"

October 31, 2023

2.0

Overall, based on many years as a business owner, the experience with the XERO product can only be described as disappointing.

Pros

XERO certainly provides a number of novel and useful automated functions, especially for business owners.

Cons

XERO software contains far too many errors and non-practical functions, such as payroll. It does work, but the limited functionality means that it doesn't provide the range of reports and information that a business owner would expect.

Reason for choosing Xero

Recommended by our accountant.

### "Overpriced and Constant failure of Bank Feeds"

November 19, 2018

3.0

Pros

Easy to use and navigate, doesn't require professional expertise for basic transactions. Still need a bookkeeper or accountant to properly administer, however.

Cons

Way more expensive than competitors and on top of that, bank feeds constantly fail and/or transactions don't properly get picked up. Support is extremely slow and salespeople care nothing about helping their clients.

### "Crushes QB Online!"

March 29, 2016

5.0

I was a very frustrated Quickbooks Online user. Their support was atrocious!! I was so happy to discover xero.com and I tell everyone I know they should switch! Very intuitive and easy to use, great selection of built in reports, easy integration with banking and credit card processing and I love their large library of plug-ins. You can add virtually any functionality by adding a plug-in. They don't provide phone support, which concerned me at first, but their email support is on point - quick and effective.

Pros

Great support, great functionality, intuitive interface.

Cons

I have zero complaints with xero.

### "I love this more than Quickbooks"

February 13, 2018

5.0

Easy to integrate! I use Infusionsoft for CRM and HelloSign for contracts. I enter the key fields in Infusionsoft which triggers an invoice in XERO (accounting) to be automatically sent and a contract from HelloSign to be filled in and sent. Within minutes I have a signed contract, received funds and everything is reconciled in Xero.

Pros

This software is so easy to use and the User Interface is attractive and intuitive. The mobile application makes spending, invoicing, billing and reconciling a breeze!

Cons

I really like this software, but it is a little hard to reconcile when you split up line items.
