It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.

The system is intuitive and easy to use. For the non-technical to the expert accountant. This system works for everyone. It is simple to enter quotes, and invoices, the dashboard is easy to understand. The resorts are customizable, and everything may be exported to excel or pdf. If you need to create quotes or invoices on the run, the mobile app is there to assist you. This streamlines my business, so I may focus on my business, to the accounts.

Control of expenses and invoices
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Xero from other similar products?
It is a tool that in companies fulfills financial control functions in companies, it works quite well if what you are looking for is to control and have organized two payments and invoicing in real time, it is a tool mostly used by accountants but I could say that it is quite versatile
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I like it because it is a good accounting system but at the same time it is quite functional when this type of system is required for calculations in general, for accounting professionals it is quite good but for those in sales who manage payment or banking processes it is very good
What do you dislike most about this product?
It is a tool that does not only focus on a single type of industry, it can be used without problem if you are in administrative or accounting positions, so I have no problems
