Ben was friendly, knowledgeable and clear.

Ben was clear, friendly and very knowledgeable- feel I got loads out of our session. We managed to link my bank accounts, go through a lot of the initial set up and I felt much more confident continuing once we'd had our session. The follow up summary and recording of our call was also super helpful. Impressed. Thanks!

Customer support is non-existent

Customer support is non-existent. They don't provide telephone number to call, to get support, you need to log in. If you have problems logging in, there is no way to contact them.
Even if you manage to get to a place where you can ask for a call, it could be only next month, which is ridiculous if you have a close deadline.
Avoid Xero if you can.

Xero is NOT a small business accounting…

Xero is NOT a small business accounting platform, it's a platform for pushing its paid services and deceiving you into buying them. The accounting service, as minimal as it is, is ancillary to this sales effort. Used it for 5 yrs at the recommendation of my CPA, then when I had an actual problem, the tech support totally failed to respond. I couldn't even produce a simple invoice and got no support from Xero, despite my $50+/mo subscription. STAY AWAY FROM XERO.

The advisor was very knowledgeable

The advisor was very knowledgeable, helpful, patient and a good communicator. My only slight criticism is that the session at 30 mins is a little too short to cover everything in detail.

Ever since they've introduced AI rubbish into their product it has gone down hill. I have not had a worse customer service experience with ANY company since being forced to use what ever chat bot you've implemented. What ever happened to being able to just "lodge a case" and wait for a response. I know EXACTLY what I want, and the question to ask - but being forced to go around in circles with a rubbish chat bot for 15 minute before it would even suggest allowing me to raise a case is pure lunacy!

Just got a partner update email

Just got a partner update email, now they offer being able to add Auto reconcile to the Ignite plan for $8 a month, bad enough it's going to $37.00 + GST from 1 Oct let along trying to get you to add a further add on at additional cost. Still no increase in the bill limit being given though on the plan. Seriously would like to move my small ones away but given the amount of history Xero hold it's not so easy and then having to download so much is just as bad. Even after you cancel you have to pay to access records again unlike others who allow you back in for free for a period of time as read only. They aren't about their loyal users now they are all about profit and give new clients big discounts but not long time users, just keep hitting us with price increases despite some of the so called upgrades being of no use or not available unless you go up a plan to access them which isn't always practical from a cashflow point.
