Overall Satisfaction with Xero

We use Xero as our Accounting Software for our growing photography business. It is used by 2 users in our company to enter our sales and manage our bank accounts and reconciliations. Xero makes the often dreaded job of accounting very easy and manageable.

Pros

  • We love that Xero imports our transactions directly from our banks accounts for easy reconciliation.
  • Xero's multi user capability is a huge benefit to us.
  • We love that it's cloud based so that we can access it anytime, anywhere.

Cons

  • The team at Xero worked hard to convert our Quickbooks file to their format, however, we ended up needing to manually convert our books, which was time consuming to do.
  • It has definitely decreased the amount of time we spend on our accounting. Come tax time, this is a huge benefit and cost/time savings for us!
We were never able to easily import our bank transactions through our QuickBooks software, which made accounting a dreaded and time consuming tasks. QuickBooks was also almost too robust for our basic accounting needs, so having a much easier to use system has been a great change for us. We chose Xero because it was cloud based, was easy for our other employees to gain access, and worked in sync with our bank accounts.
They've had very responsive and great customer service and we're very happy with our experience with them thus far!
How important is it to you to have an easy to use, intuitive accounting system?
