Xero: not a promise but a reality
Overall Satisfaction with Xero
I use Xero to manage my IT company, it's easy to use and easy to train new users.
Pros
- Bank reconciliation
- Report generation
- Graphs and projections
- Invoices, quotes and bills
- Mobile app
- Xero Support
Cons
- Add offline version (very important for third world countries like Vanuatu)
- Payment portals (add more and add WordPress integration)
- Duplicates during bank reconciliation imports
- Allow customers to create an online account from which they can access all their past transactions (invoices, quotes and bills) on the Portal
- Allow more dashboard customization (more graphs)
- Reduced errors
- Time saved (no backups, quick reports, Xero Support)
- Improved financial stability and projection
In my opinion, the main competitor to Xero is QuickBooks but I migrated from QuickBooks to Xero because I was looking for an accounting software with an interface easier to use.
