### "Making it Easier for Marketing!"

August 7, 2018

4.0

Xero powers our accounting function, and with P&L responsibility for Marketing it allows me to stay on top of expenses without waiting for month end.

Pros

I like the ability to get mid-month updates on my current expenditure without giving my Head of Finance palpitations!

Cons

The difficulty of mass-importing accruals wasn't made for the someone without an accounting degree, I think.

### "Was a big learning curve for me, moving from quickbooks, but now that I'm used to it I like it"

June 5, 2018

5.0

Pros

It integrates well with our POS System. The ability to modify the layout of reports is a nice option.

Cons

It would be nice if there were more drop down menus, instead of having to click multiple times to get to the screen you need.

### "Easy to submit and approve expenses, view annual leave balances and pay invoices "

May 26, 2017

4.0

Easy to manage personal admin in my role such as submitting timesheets, annual leave balances and submitting expenses.

Pros

I like how simple it is to get up and running with this tool from a users point of view. I use this tool to submit and approve team expenses. It's as simple as entering some information and uploading files. It's also really easy to view how much leave you have as an employee and request time off or submit sick leave. As a user I didn't need any training and it helps me manage the personal admin side of my role.

Cons

Had some issues with employees submitting time sheets and there seems to be a bug that you can approve your own annual and sick leave. Could do with some improvements to help avoid future issues with team members submitting and approving their own time.

### "Simple, hassle-free accounting"

February 17, 2019

5.0

Saves a phenomenal amount of time compared to other market alternatives.

Pros

Bank feeds and automation, integration with other software. Being able to attach files directly to bills for audit purposes. It's a true paper-free system.

Cons

Recent changes to menus and new sales/bills formats.

### "Unreliable in the End with Terrible Support"

June 1, 2017

1.0

Pros

The features are more than sufficient for our particular needs (and I imagine for many companies). In addition, the UI is pretty easy to understand. There's a slight learning curve, but not too much.

Cons

Biggest issue is that bank feeds tend not to import 100% of transactions. Most transactions get imported, but in several of our accounts, 50-100 transactions will be randomly 'missed' and not imported. Xero customer support's only response is to suggest that we manually go through all transactions to see which ones have been missed and then import those particular transactions manually. Since we get thousands of transactions each month, that suggestion would require a LOT of time. Plus, this also means that you can never trust whether Xero is importing all transactions or not. Unfortunately, Xero's customer support is completely dismissive of the issue when we inquire and ask for assistance.

### "Kind of a fad? "

February 18, 2020

3.0

It was good for a while, then I think we outgrew it, as if it was a fad we had to try to see if it worked for us.

Pros

The name is memorable and catchy. Like how you can audit and see other user activity.

Cons

It was overcomplicated. Too many ways to do the same things and get to the same places in the system.

Reason for choosing Xero

We were looking for something new, modern that had features for reports we can use.

### "Best accounting software on the market"

September 18, 2020

5.0

Xero has been a great experience for me. If you want software that can automatically allocate transactions when and where you need them to go, save yourself time and check out Xero.

Pros

Very affordable price for a wide range of services. Xero also integrates with Stripe and allows currencies of other countries!

Cons

One thing I noticed was that I didn't have the ability to add my own documented notes into certain fields. This will be crucial on their next update.

### " excellent application to manage finances"

April 13, 2018

3.0

You can manage invoices and payments through spending programs to see cash flow (one of our favorites), as well as create professional invoices and receive automatic updates when viewed.

Pros

The best thing about this application is the easy way to use it and its set of features can help close vital accounting barriers

Cons

Some users believe that the multiple currency function of Xero could be stronger, which could affect companies that operate internationally.

### "Xero means business..."

March 7, 2020

5.0

Xero takes care of all of the basics and more. Keep track of cash flow for your business on the go or at home and the office. With 3 different plans that are affordable, you can keep track of the money, anytime, anywhere.

Pros

The best thing to take note with this program is that you can get paid faster than anything else. This program not only offers so many things, but this has online invoicing. Send an invoice, and get an update when the client opens it. Xero is not only viewable on a laptop or desktop, but Xero is available as an application, so you can literally take care of business on the go.

Cons

Even though this is not a full 10 rating, it is one software platform to keep an eye out for. My only complaint with Xero, is that they should add some more features.

### "Analysis of the use of Xero in the financial sector"

December 4, 2019

4.0

The company needs a new way that increases the efficiency of the accounting industry so that expenses can be tracked, and Xero has allowed the bank account to be directly connected to it. It provided instant credit notes to be sent to customers, making service faster and more efficient.

Pros

My team and I chose Xero because it has unlimited users, is well-suited for midsize businesses, and has advanced administration tools. It has wide compatibility with the most used browsers in the world. His accounting method is one of the most positive points he has.

Cons

The support provided by the company is not bad, but it is also not excellent and in my view this is a negative point. Its interface is not as simple during initial use, which makes the learning curve a bit longer.

Reason for choosing Xero

The reasons that influenced us to choose Xero were the various possibilities of integrating it with other programs and its excellence in accounting.

### "Great value, easy to use"

November 7, 2016

4.0

Xero is an outstanding bookkeeping software. Keeps our company organized and allows us to take a snapshot of our business at any time. When getting started, take the time to organize yourself. Understand you chart of accounts and beginning balances. I love the ability to sink with my credit card accounts (for easy categorization of expenses) and the direct deposit payroll services.

Pros

Payroll services are a real bargain.

Cons

Support is lacking, you need to use the community or pay a third party.

### "Very easy to use and good layout to work my way around the system"

March 8, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love how easy it is to use. Everything is laid out very simply. I use Xero everyday and wouldn't want to change to anything else.

Cons

The only thing I would like to do is open two companies at the same time. Which I can do if I use two different browsers

The bank & credit card feeds import all of our transactions in Xero automatically. All of the built-in reports help us always stay up to date and organized. They make it pretty easy to manage finances.

Pros

Great tool for keeping organized and simple to use.

Cons

I cannot think of anything i do not like.

July 27, 2017

5.0

Pros

Extremely easy to use. Allows transparency and access at all levels, and has streamlined our finances and flow.

Cons

Not much to dislike, other than the ability to reap increased rewards from referrals. Personalisation to the back-end could be improved.

April 25, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like the robustness of the software and the ability for the free trial. Definitely helped when looking to choose which accounting software was going to be the best fit for me.

Cons

I did not find it very easy to navigate around. Seem a little clunky to me and could do with a better UI and UX but I also am not an accountant.

### "Simple but powerful"

September 26, 2018

5.0

Pros

It's super simple to use, it covers everything you'd need running a UK based business, and it has integrations with all the other tools we use

Cons

The way expenses are dealt with on the backend could be improved. For users it's simple enough, but for administrators there are some annoying things. For example, all expenses are dated the date they're submitted rather than the date they were incurred.
