"Straightforward, Reliable Bookkeeping with Xero—and Great Integrations"
5/5
What do you like best about Xero?

Xero is straightforward to use, with an intuitive interface that makes day-to-day bookkeeping efficient and easy to manage. We also value the ability to integrate it with tools like Monday.com, which helps streamline our workflows. From a technical standpoint, we haven’t encountered any issues, and the platform performs reliably even with a high volume of transactions. Overall, we feel that we’re getting good value from the subscription, as it supports our operations effectively. We’re also starting to explore Xero’s AI features and look forward to seeing how we can maximise their potential. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xero?

We’ve recently noticed a change in behaviour when working with Purchase Orders and draft bills, which has impacted our workflow. Previously, we would copy approved POs into draft bills to use as placeholders as part of our process. However, this recent change disrupts our approach, as Xero now appears to treat any bill—even in draft status—as an indication that the PO has been fulfilled.

"Effortless Payroll Management, Superb Usability"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Xero?

I just think Xero is super user friendly. I like that it doesn't have a lot of text and has a lot of colors. It's very emoticon-based, with only five options to choose from, which simplifies what I need. I use it specifically to submit my timesheet and organize my payroll because it's the easiest system I've ever used. It's easy to put my hours in, and if I work or train more hours, it's easy to adjust. It gives a very easy overview of my payslips, time off, leave, or anything I've paid for and need to be reimbursed for. The initial setup was super easy, and it's reliable. The automatic bank feeds, invoice features, and easy reconciliation process save a lot of time and minimize errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable, Affordable, and Highly Customizable — Easier Than QuickBooks"
5/5
What do you like best about Xero?

Ease of use, the ability to customize forms and reports. Very rarely have I had an outage with the system. I can log in from anywhere and complete my work. Inexpensive option and easier to use than Quickbooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xero?

One complaint is the inability to split invoices into multiple payment options to integrate with credit card supplier, and the inability to add a "change order" to the invoice after partial payment is applied. There are workarounds to accomplish both goals, but they are tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With their use of invoicing, expense management, business expense management, financial reporting, and many other features, you can manage daily processes easier.

4/5
What do you like best about Xero?

Nice UI for most of the features and modules - quite intuitive and customer friendly software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xero?

Some features are not good - for example - Bank reconciliations could be even better. Xero should launch an India centric module which will benefit a lot of small and medium enterprises who operate out of multiple entities across the globe and also have Indian entity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Modular Subscription with Helpful FAQs and Flexible Add-Ons"
4/5
What do you like best about Xero?

Modular subscription, allows SMEs to start with the basics and add-on over time.

I've only started to use the custom invoice feature.

I found the help and FAQs useful.

I would like to see basic AI chats included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xero?

The custom invoice feature needs me to create the template in Word doc. I suggest have a drag and drop module so that the user does not need to grapple with field codes, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick, Easy Reconciliation and Smooth CSV Bank Statement Imports"
4/5
What do you like best about Xero?

Reconcillation is quick and easy and the importing of the bank statement via csv file works well. Unfortunately, our bank does not connect with Xero for automated importing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xero?

When entering expenses manually via the app with a photo I do it for the few employees (2) it is only able to designate me as the expense person when it would be good to be able to choose who the expense is done by. The others do not do any accounts so it is left to me as a non for profit volunteer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
