### "Really clean and simple"

February 19, 2021

5.0

Pros

I love Xero. I honestly don't know how any business can live without software like this in 2021. Makes bookkeeping super easy and as an accounting noob it has taught me so much.

Cons

It would be good if they could account for VAT in multiple countries.

### "We use Xero for our small business accounting"

May 15, 2018

5.0

It makes our accounting breeze and our accountants can just simply access our accounts online.

Pros

It's so intuitive to use. Prior to Xero the accounting software was really hard to use. Xero really made accounting easy and they've kept improving the product over the years. Definitely a market leader.

Cons

oh god - I wish the Xero UX designers could work on improving Microsoft products as well. So many companies could learn from Xero about great customer experience.

### "Xero is incredible!"

February 14, 2017

5.0

Xero is hands down the most powerful small business accounting software package I've ever used. Combined with its native payroll functionally and ease of payment reconciliation, it is worth every penny.

Pros

Payment reconciliation and linking with bank accounts/payment cards. User interface. Mobile apps. Customization. Ability to add additional users and control their access level. Third party integrations.

Cons

It seems to have issues making tax payments via ACH to the state authorities.

### "Satisfied Customer"

April 27, 2019

4.0

I use Xero to manage a guesthouse and I have been using it for several years - it is much easier than previous offerings.

Pros

I like the automated repeat billing and the fact that it automatically imports my bank statements and matches the transactions to invoices and allocates it similar to previous transactions - this saves a lot of time.

Cons

It is not always easy to figure out how to enter a specific transaction and often you have to jump around to get things done.

### "I've been using Xero for several years and it has helped me streamline my consulting business."

October 12, 2017

5.0

Streamlined accounting services and easy online payment setup.

Pros

I love that I can invite my accountant to the software for end of the year handoff for taxes. I also really appreciate the ability to attach paypal or stripe to easily accept online payments from my clients.

Cons

I believe the expense report filing could be made easier or have more support in understanding how to categorize expenses when you are still learning how to do business accounting.

### "Excellent system to integrate all your financial information"

November 27, 2018

4.0

It is always an interesting experience to be able to try this type of software that includes tools that integrate the work of an entire department, especially in finance. Xero unquestionably helps improve your productivity and your success in the financial analysis of your company, managing to better manage the human and monetary resources

Pros

It is a Web platform that helps you integrate all your financial and accounting information in one place, the use of the board makes it much easier to use your cash flow tools, invoicing, that is, you can manage the entire administrative process with the use of only one software

Cons

Like many software of this style, its free version is very limited, since it has a 30-day use, it could add some more options to try, otherwise it's excellent

### "Getting a hold of my finances"

April 17, 2019

5.0

Pros

Xero has enabled me to integrate with receipt Bank. not only that I've also synced Xero to my business bank accounts. This means that all my bank accounts and expense reports are in one central place. it allows me to do bookkeeping and accounting all together.

Cons

The software is built primarily for bookkeepers and accountants. I'm not either of those, and so the interface was slightly overwhelming to begin working with.

### "The most versatile and feature rich accounting software I have ever seen!"

March 31, 2018

5.0

Able to use the software on my phone and send invoices from it.

Pros

I love the mobile app that allows me to send online invoices and also notifies me when they have been opened and viewed. I also like that I can have my bank transactions synced with the software.

Cons

I wish there was a level between the starter and standard plan that allowed for sending unlimited invoices.

### "Decent Accounting Platform"

May 4, 2018

4.0

Automation for accounting.

Pros

The system is pretty intuitive. There are a few issues but overall it is an easy platform for non accountants to use.

Cons

While intuitive for the most part the areas where it is not intuitive can be really hard to fix. The data importation is not the best. When you get an error it does't tell you why.. so it takes forever to fix it.

### "xero"

November 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

This has made my life a lot simpler once I created my limited company. It's user friendly and has everything I need and some other features I didn't know I would!

Cons

Some parts are a bit more complicated but it's easy to find help. I wish it'd be more straightforward to create your own custom invoice as I don't particularly like their standard layout

### "Xero makes it easy to take care of most of my accounting needs"

December 7, 2017

5.0

I can pay people easily, and get paid even easier. I can automate most of that using the API and that is what I love the most about them!

Pros

I can pay people what they need, and bill people what I need. I like the API interface with it as well. That is always a plus in my book.

Cons

I don't really like that they are based out of the US. It makes it harder to talk to someone higher up in the company with the hours that I keep.

### "Xero- worth using for tutoring agencies"

December 7, 2016

4.0

The reason why we shifted to Xero from a free accounting platform with our Business Athena Tuition (www.athenatuition.co.uk) is that we had begun using Tutorcruncher- tutor agency business software. Tutorcruncher has integrated with Xero to make our tutor and agency invoices and payment orders easy to upload and place in Xero. In this regard Xero is ideal, it integrates with the most important software that we as an agency use. If you use tutorcruncher, you should use Xero. Aside from this, Xero's functionality closely mirrors other accounting software but seems to be among the more modern and cloud based. Most accountants will be familiar with Xero which is another major reason to use it. However, compared to the free software I had previously used, it was more complex and therefore slightly less intuitive. However, it is also much more feature rich. Recommend.

Pros

It integrates with Tutorcruncher well, it's feature rich, modern and cloud-based, fairly easy to use and well known by accountants.

Cons

Less user-friendly than possible- with more features. They should probably hide lots of advanced features for new users.

### "Almost A Home Run"

November 21, 2015

5.0

Xero integrates nicely with many CRMs (that's up to the CRM), but it really shines in basic double-entry accounting, allowing you to match transactions like Quickbooks does but with a more streamlined interface. There are two huge problems (at least for me) that I've suggested they address: 1) the email that gets sent as a cover when you send an invoice to a customer is awful. Just black text on a white background. No customization offered, no company logo, no nothing. This has been requested by users for 3 years, and their feedback is that it is low priority at best. 2) If you use alternative payment gateways like PayPal or Stripe, which you can with Xero, you have to create separate invoice templates. So, if you send one to a customer thinking they like PayPal, they don't know they can use Stripe and when they complain, you say "Oh, I can...", and you void the invoice and resend the Stripe one. Silly and not customer-focused. I thought I'd solve all this by moving to Freshbooks. They fix both of those problems. But...they don't do double-entry accounting. You can only reconcile your bank EXPENSES, but not your income items. Sigh. So, for now at least, I use both. Xero to generate everything, and Freshbooks to send the invoice. Both of them play nice with my CRM and I can use Zapier to auto-create the Freshbooks customer after I create them in Xero.

Pros

See above for details.

Cons

Great cloud based service for accounting, uptime has never been an issue. Easy to interact from in terms of expense reporting. Software always up to date, no compatibility issues like with quick books.
