Because we logical types, let’s approach that question from the start; what is Xero Accounting? Based in New Zealand, Xero develops accounting and bookkeeping software that runs in ‘the cloud’. These software products are designed for use by small and medium sized businesses, as such they are very intuitive to use and customise.

Xero Accounting software products are based on the SaaS model (or, software as a service) and rather than selling the software itself, the company provides the software service as a subscription. These products are used all over the world, in almost 200 hundred countries, and are  trusted by thousands of businesses.

Keeping track of business accounts, expenditure, income, clients and customers can be a complicated and time consuming task – Xero helps to simplify the process of bookkeeping and keeps everything within relatively easy reach of the user.

So, why do we use Xero Accounting?

There are much better ways today to run a business, and invariably these involve digital services or automation. Poring over paper accounts and ledgers is not an efficient use of our time, or yours. Even spreadsheets can become painful to use over time, as a business grows and develops a spreadsheet just becomes far too unwieldy and prone to error.

To combat this, many companies turn to dedicated software services just like Xero. The simpler a particular task can be made for us, the better service that we can provide to you. It really is that simple and Xero just happens to be the best software solution to help us do that.

The Xero software allows complex ledgers to be edited and updated online, in real time and without taking up unnecessary time and resources that small businesses can ill afford to use on anything other than the actual running of the day to day business.

Automation is an important factor also, and Xero is able to send invoice reminders on its own ‘initiative’. Invoices can be matched up with bank statements, allowing the software access to the kind of details that tell it if an invoice has is past due or not.

Naturally, this kind of access needs protecting, which is why Xero guarantees that all data is held securely and safely. Security and accessibility are important weapons in the Xero arsenal, and to this end the software can be reached from anywhere – even your smartphone.

If accounting is not your thing, or you just really need the time for more pressing matters, then we can do one of two things for you depending on which of the above applies to you:

●     We can get you set up with Xero and show how it works, or;

●     Our professional accountants can take care of everything on your behalf.

Either way, with the help of the best accounting software available today, we can take care of you and your ledgers with total accuracy, speed, security and peace of mind for you and your business.
