Let’s begin.

Xero

‘Beautiful accounting software’, is what is says on the tin.

Who’s it for: lovers of cloud.

If you’re still moaning about internet security, then stick with system problems and over-priced software that forces you into a career in IT.

For everybody else, there’s Xero.

Like Herman Miller’s Aeron chair, Xero has won design awards. It was created specifically for people whose first language is not accounting.

Get ready for a productivity boost. Once set up, Xero will export invoices at twice the speed of Excel, with no addition errors.

Xero is part of a large ecosystem of add-ons, so sky’s the limit when scaling from small solopreneur to medium scale business reaching 10 million dollars revenue per annum.

I predict at the current rate of third party releases, we will see this baby hitting large enterprises. Find out more about Xero here.
