XERO

There are now several cloud-based accounting packages available in the market. Founded in New Zealand in 2006, Xero has been one of the leaders in this space since inception due to a focus on security and innovation. Xero was built in the cloud, for the cloud and is unlike other accounting systems that were originally built for desktop.

Nexia Levitt Kirson has taken the approach of being master of one, rather than trying to understand all of them. We have been impressed with the reliability of Xero, its user-friendly interface, and its ability to integrate with an incredible number of third-party applications.

One of our other favourite features is the fantastic support available directly from Xero. Their support website (Xero Central) has free online training courses, helpful support articles and gives you access to Xero’s free 24-hour support by allowing you to log tickets with their support consultants.

We are Xero migration specialists, so we can help you switch to Xero from any other accounting software, and we also provide general support and training. If you would like to know more about how we migrate clients and our pricing, please contact us and we will send you our handy Xero brochure.
