My Experience with Xero in a Filled Insight

Pros:

I use Xero on few selected moments mainly through mobile application when on the go. I like that it automates repetitive accounting tasks.

Cons:

Unfortunately, Xero mobile application does not allocate all features available on mobile apps.

Okay for business owner, not good for accountants

Comments: Can be effective alternative to quickbooks, but when things break or you need support… there is none.

Pros:

No customer support, you will get a reply back once a day.

Bookkeeping with ease

Comments: Xero is such as easy platform to use. Having used most of the other big name competition programs, Xero by far is the most intuitive and allows me to automate a lot of repetitive tasks and keep on top of my financial position. I love the fact that I have have my Accountant looking at the account at the same time as me so we can review things together over the phone or zoom.

Pros:

Xero does everything I need it to and helps me stay in control of my finances as I can see real time data of income and expenses and I always feel in-control.

Cons:

Cost is probably the main thing. The limits on the lowest plan are tight for a freelancer- as I often have more bills than the allocation, but don't need anything else in the next plan up.

J.Lee Views on Xero Based on 3 Yos Usage

Comments: Automating accounts payable and receivable reduce financial losses.

Pros:

Xero mobile application is what I like most since I am able to carry out repetitive accounting tasks such as AP, AR and GL on the go over the internet.

Great local solution - doesn't scale well when you go global

Comments: From a small to medium size single business / single country perspective, it is quite effective.

Pros:

It is simple to use and has all the core functionality that you need.

Cons:

We are expanding globally, and Xero does not deal well with that. We have had to licence localised versions of Xero that we need to then manually consolidate. I am aware the Xero marketplace does offer some solutions, but there are also all in one solutions available where you deal with a single vendor.
