## Reviews

### "Great for Businesses of All Sizes" — 5.0/5

> **Craig** | *3 November 2025* | Dairy | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xero is easy to use and has an intuitive interface, which made navigating the platform straightforward. I also appreciated the accessibility, being able to access financial information from anywhere, and the automated reminders, which helped keep tasks like invoicing and payments on track.
> 
> **Cons**: Some advanced features take a bit of time to learn, and certain integrations may have extra costs. Overall, these are minor trade-offs given how efficient the platform is.
> 
> Xero is very easy to use and adaptable for all types of businesses. It provides quick access to favorites and allows dashboards to be customised for each user. Overall, I’m very happy with the system.

### "Solid accounting software" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *25 June 2026* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, good access restrictions in place, great reporting features, team is constantly developing new features and updating UI.
> 
> **Cons**: Can be quite expensive for a small business. Bank integrations can be a bit fiddly at times and don’t work properly on occasion.
> 
> I use Xero for two of my businesses and very happy with it. The reporting is top notch, it’s intuitive to use and generally it is just a solid software.

### "Xero is complex" — 3.0/5

> **Sharon** | *3 April 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There is a lot of customer support available however its not instant and when your completing your account's you need an immediatre response not a call back
> 
> **Cons**: Its complicated to use and no-one explained you need multiple apps to upload your receipts and bills and pages of uploads banking invoices . I have found it very complex and frustrating
> 
> It was a cheaper option than other software however i wish i hsd looked further into before signing up .&#10;Other business had advised me it was eady to use howrver it has took me so much more time thsn a basic spreadsheet and i just cant get  away with it .&#10;I have had nunerous times onto customer support screen sharing and an onboarding session and still do not like this

### "Surprisingly, it appears to be working without breaking" — 5.0/5

> **Hayden** | *27 July 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I setup Xero by myself, which is miraculous, most of these kinds of systems fail on their first start. I've got my coffee running down my leg as I sit here trying to balance my laptop on my knee in the server room waiting for my vendor call. So, I will try to keep this short. Xero integrates with Salesforce and Concur fine. I was surprised it did not crash once we transitioned to using Dimension Structure over the old Account Number fields. Most of the time the AI Bill Coding reads the invoices correctly so I don’t have to type as much which is a small relief.
> 
> **Cons**: Everything has to be done on an entity-level as opposed to being able to access all information at the top-level. Finding anything takes way too long. System upgrades also take hours and lock-out our offshore team. However, the absolute worst thing about this system is that you cannot modify the Default Reporting Dates from Calendar Month to Fiscal Year. I run on a fiscal year basis. Every single time I pull reports, I have to manually override the dates to get the correct information. This wastes my time and makes me scream.
> 
> We used to spend months closing the books due to having cabinets full of paper. I no longer have to login and logout of multiple accounts fifty times per day. I’m glad it catches mistakes such as double paying a vendor prior to my boss yelling at me. It’s nice that I can work from home a couple days per week as it’s hosted in the cloud. Tracking our 50 Grants is much easier to manage then they were with our previous software.

### "A fresh and vibrant accounting software package" — 5.0/5

> **Sharelle** | *27 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The sheer beauty of the user experience - it has grown and changed but always maintained a fresh and vibrant look and feel - as easy as apple pie ;-)
> 
> **Cons**: The subscription cost for lower end users - they don't really do a 'minimal entry' platform that doesn't hurt your pocket if you're having a rough month. Like all platforms, they have to decide which features that users request will be implemented, and that left some users feeling ignored and out in the cold. It just cant be perfect for everyone, but its damn close\!
> 
> For the times i was running a multi-million dollar construction company - to when I branched out into a solo world, Xero was there to hold my hand every step of the way. Faster payments, smoother transactions - hosts of plug-in software to make Xero as unique as your own business. Easy to teach to newbies - fantastic at handling high-level accounting.
