Overall Satisfaction with Xero

Xero is being used across the organization for sales invoicing, accounts receivables management, expense reconciliation, accounts payable, bookkeeping functions and financial reporting. It addresses all of our accounting and financial management needs. It is a comprehensive application that allows manual journal entries, integrates well with other applications, and is very user friendly.
  • Sales invoices - can be customized, default due dates set up and reminders sent to facilitate payment
  • Integrates well with other applications (Dext/Receiptbank) - makes expense reconciliation very efficient and accurate.
  • Excellent reports - can be customized and valuable for simple or detailed reporting and analysis
  • Easy to use for those with no accounting background (also suitable for those with advanced accounting knowledge)
  • Improvements are always being made but nothing currently needs improvement
  • Excellent positive impact on ROI - easy to use, saves time related to bookkeeping
  • Improved access to financial information - excellent reports
  • Improved bill payment time - can easily see what bills are due and the amounts
  • Improved accounts receivables collection time - can easily see when invoices are coming due
Xero is easy to learn and easy to use - many of the functions are intuitive
Integrates well with banking providers for import of account transactions. Also integrates well Dext and Hubdoc to ensure seamless access to information and reduction of duplication
