Pros
I was able to create an account and write my first invoice in about half an hour. Simple yet useful templates and intuitive user interface supported me in doing so. Also, the trial was free and I was able to just start earning money without having to grind through reviews or do a comparison marathon between different solutions. I also could put my logo on my invoice and make it look very close to my business paper.
Cons
At the same time it was lear for me from the beginning, that it would probably not a longterm solution as the ways to customize the look and feel of the invoices was not convincing. Bugs kept on coming up, with formating being forgotten or vanishing. Also the integration with Zapier was fairly basic making it impossible to create one-click offers from my sales pipline or automatically close won oportunities / deals form the salespipline in case an Invoice is created. Lexoffice has a lot of room to grow in this segment.

All in all, Lexware is a very easy-to-use software that even non-professionals should be able to handle. Those who want to do real accounting at some point will then have to switch.
Pros
Die im allgemeinen sehr umfassende Ausstattung. Nahezu jeder Bereich ist abgedeckt.
Cons
The restriction to a small part of the DATEV system of accounts. According to the provider, this is intentional. This means that the software is lost for all those who want to book "correctly" at some point. Very quickly I came to a point during testing, where I was missing a certain account to book. The support suggested that I should simply use another booking account. However, a completely wrong one, which would have led to a wrong accounting. At that point Lexware was out of the race for me.

We are really satisfied and glad about our switch.
Pros
I am bot really versed in anything regarding taxes and finances, but had to take over after the person who used to do that left because of a family issue. It took me super long to learn how to use lexware, the mother software of lexoffice. As soon as I was able to switch to lexoffice, it was such a relief. Lexoffice is super easy to use, it translates pdfs automatically into data, you can search SKR numbers just by typing in matching keywords and makes financial planning so much faster.
Cons
I feel that some feature are not where I would usually expect them to be in the menu and some options are not quite as extensive as we hoped.

One of the best solutions to do your daily accounting on your own
Reviewed on 06/08/2019
Pros
Lexoffice is extremely easy to use, it is not necessary to know accounting inside and out. If you have very basic knowledege you are good to go.
It is fantastic to do your clients invoice, payments, create offers and see everything what is going on in your business.
Main reason we use it:
- clean UI
- big time saver (easy scan of documents and autodetection of content)
- semi automatic accounting
- German tax compliant
- great value for money
Cons
So far it does everything we need, there are very few things it can do.
