User Reviews of Xero
Write a Review
It’s a beautiful accounting software. They keep the language simple which is great for users who don’t know accounting terminology.
I think Xero has a lot of power and flexibility, which gives it a bigger learning curve to get used to the features available. I recommend finding a bookkeeper who is experienced who can show you the ropes.
If you’re a beginning, Xero has a whole set of videos available to help teach you the software. It’s very similar to QuickBooks Online. I recommend using this software probably as much as QBO, Wave, and Kashoo.
Despite some criticism I have about Xero, I feel they are a strong billing and invoicing software. The customization capabilities is probably the best out of all online accounting software. It’s best to judge accounting software based on what you need it to do, rather than what it can be capable of doing.
The support is heavily weighted to “email” and it can be hard to get people on the phone. However, I feel email does give me better answers.
Easy to use program.
It includes lots of options to customize the software.
I found some sections are complicated to get started.
