Xero Accounting Solution Reviews

“Xero Review”

Pros

Xero provides excellent customer service through chat, email, and other channels. It has a wide range of features like expense tracking, reconciliation, and reporting.

Cons

With Xero's extensive features, there should be training and education for new users.

“An Excellent and Perfect Accounting and Bookkeeping Tool.”

Pros

I find it convenient for handling accounting and bookkeeping tasks with Xero. Billing and invoicing are easy to manage, and it simplifies tracking cash flows and bank reconciliation.

Cons

I haven't found anything complicated with Xero; it simplifies the accounting process.

“Xero boasts robust security measures and a wide range of features.”

Pros

Xero offers analytical tools that help analyze financial activities, providing insights into financial health and tracking records.

Cons

I've never encountered an error using this tool; it works perfectly for me.

“User friendly for newbies”

Pros

It's very affordable compared to similar accounting software. For small businesses handling personal accounting, this is a great option with an intuitive and simple UI.

Cons

It lacks certain features needed for larger accounting tasks.

“Xero - industry standard”

Pros

It's widely used, has API connections to banks, and is a standard in the industry.

Cons

Customization for each market is limited, and the multi-currency feature is costly.

“Xero Recurring Bill Feature Review”

Pros

Setting up recurring bills in Xero is very simple. It has placeholders for customizing references and other necessary information. You can select the status of recurring bills (draft, awaiting approval, awaiting payment) and choose frequency, due date, and end date, providing flexibility.

Cons

It's best to have an expert set up Xero and train users to ensure immediate and accurate deployment.

“Great product”

Pros

It's super easy to use and doesn't require much technical knowledge.

Cons

Sometimes it doesn't load right away, though this could be due to our internet.

“clean interface for accounting”

Pros

The interface is really user friendly and the features included make accounting and invoicing simple to manage.

Cons

It has been working reliably for me and I haven't run into any issues so far.

“quick setup and simple banking”

Pros

Xero software is very easy to use and using it day to day has been just as simple. Setting everything up didn't take much effort and allocating bank transactions is especially convenient.

Cons

The only downside is choosing a package that isn't more than what we actually need though that's not really an issue with how the software itself performs.

“invoicing that just flows”

Pros

At work we use Xero instead of QuickBooks Online and it makes creating, customizing and sending invoices a really hassle free task.

Cons

Everything works really well on my side but I'd still like to see them add more global enterprise accounting features.

“Quick support”

Pros

The interface is user friendly, the pages load quickly and support has been responsive when needed.

Cons

It would be even better if there were a tabular format available.

“Simple accounting workflow”

Pros

Using Xero has been a pleasure because the interface is simple to work with and it makes it very easy to set up accounts, apply the right tax settings to each one and reconcile transactions without hassle.

Cons

It does connect with plenty of third-party tools and applications but none of the integrations are actually useful for our needs in South Africa. We really need support for local payment gateways and Buy Now Pay Later providers so transactions can be imported directly for reconciliation. Integrations with services like PayFast, PayJustNow, Ozow, Payflex, HappyPay and Float would make a big difference.

“fast setup and bank linking”

Pros

Setting up the company and connecting with the bank was very quick. And though our online banking platform isn't the easiest to use but Xero integrated without any problems.

Cons

One frustration is that archived invoices cannot be completely deleted which can create conflicts when importing old invoice numbers. We ran into a clash between invoice numbers from the old system and the new one and that caused problems that had to be fixed with credits. It would have been much better if the invoice number could simply be edited.

“user friendly reporting for small teams”

Pros

This software is very easy to use and the interface seems friendly too. Also it doesn't take much training for someone to learn it which makes onboarding much quicker. It's also flexible enough for different needs and can produce a variety of reports.

Cons

It works well for small businesses but it doesn't go very deep when it comes to detailed functionality.

“Flexible tools I can manage”

Pros

Using it has been really convenient and the platform is very user friendly. I also appreciate being able to make changes on my own without needing extra help.

Cons

The cost feels a bit expensive for something I am the only one using.

“all in one reports that deliver”

Pros

Xero makes the day to day running of our business much more manageable. It has made chasing debtors a lot simpler, keeps everything together in one place and we especially appreciate how many reports it can generate with just a click of a button.

Cons

There really isn't much not to like about it although some parts of the system can feel a bit more complicated than they need to be.

“reliable accounting features”

Pros

Xero has worked really well for our accounting needs and the platform is modern and easy to use. It includes all the accounting features we require.

Cons

I haven't run into any problems at all. The features it offers are excellent.

“flexible accounting with faster reconciliation”

Pros

Compared with other applications I have used, this one is very user friendly. The functionality and flexibility have been improved and it helps a lot with bank reconciliation which cuts down on manual work.

Cons

It could use more improvement around user-level access and control although it hasn't had any real impact on our business.

“Strong value and integrations”

Pros

It offers great value for the price and connects really well with the other software we use.

Cons

I'd ideally like it to be a bit cheaper and have more customization options for reports.

“user friendly and responsive”

Pros

Using Xero has been a really positive experience. The interface is user friendly, it's simple to work with and there's plenty of extra information available when needed. Any time I have spoken with the wider team, they've been incredibly responsive. I am very happy with Xero.

Cons

I honestly don't have any negatives to point out so I cannot comment on anything I dislike about it.
