85OFFFEB24A

Last few days to get in on this deal. 85% off all plans for the next 3 months.

Xero is pretty much industry standard now, easy to use, and has some good features. Not perfect but for those who have used MYOB, this is a much needed upgrade from that.

Sign up using the promo code 85OFFFEB24A by 29 February 2024 to get 85% off for 3 months. This offer is only available to organisations new to Xero that are based in Australia. Offer available until 11:59pm AEST on 29 February 2024. Discount applies to base Starter, Standard, Premium and Ultimate plan subscriptions only. Offer cannot be used in conjunction with any other plan offer, any other conversion services and cannot be exchanged for any other Xero offer. At the end of the offer period, the plan will be charged at Xero’s standard rates.

    So if you talk to your accountant, they can get you 75%off for 6 months, new sign ups only

    If you don't have one and want one, DM me ;)

    • jimboner on 27/02/2024 - 20:07

      Is it possible to get the 75% off without an accountant, or are they linked?

  • andresampras on 27/02/2024 - 13:31

    Is this for new signups only?

    • ozbargin0011 on 27/02/2024 - 13:35

      Of course, after you signed up and using it you couldn't get away.

  • kogi on 27/02/2024 - 13:54

    Xero or the cheaper quickbooks?

    • CachePC on 27/02/2024 - 14:03
      +1

      Depends if you want to waste time doing bank feeds and reconciliation on QBO - Xero bank feeds and reconciliation process will save you multiple hours per month compared with QBO dependent on number of transactions so it depends whether you want to use that time not paying for a BK or Accountant and earning money, not doing Admin.
      And then there the apps that connect into Xero which can be game changes for a business too

      • Neil2016 on 27/02/2024 - 14:36

        Our practice uses both QBO and Xero. I can tell you that QBO is very shitty in comparison with Xero. If your yearly turnover is less than $150,000, I think QBO would be a better choice as it is cheaper than Xero. Otherwise , Xero all the way!

        • xioxxio on 27/02/2024 - 16:13

          That is a joke, quickbooks support is incredible. You can resolve any issue within minutes by speaking with support and screen sharing. Good luck with zero ,days and days of emails. Quick books is far more superior product, some of the biggest companies in the world use quickbooks.

          All bank feeds, BAS, payroll etc are automatic with quickbooks, you are obviously living in the 80's

          Intuit is literally 15 times the size of Zero ( in BILLIONS)

          I will NEVER go back to zero.

          • Neil2016 on 27/02/2024 - 18:03

            @xioxxio: Well, it is entirely up to you.
            I have been using both Xero and QBO since 2017. Here are my some of my insights.
            Customer service, QBO is definitely better. They have a call centre that you can call in and they are very responsive. However, there are issues that cannot be fixed by them because of their shitty engineers. I have personally encountered this problem multiple times over the years.
            On the other hand, the only way to contact Xero is by using email as Xero doesn’t have a call centre. However, it is very rare that you would need to contact their customer support because Xero is so good and reliable.
            Personally, I would rather having a good product than having to keep contact their customer service.

        • kogi on 27/02/2024 - 23:51

          When you say practice, medical practice?
          Does QB or xero connect to best practice?

    I started paying $45 a month, now it's $65.

    So, $800 a year for that and the accountant who has to do SFA still charges me $2k.

    • CachePC on 27/02/2024 - 14:05

      Yep, Xero does a lot of the heavy lifting as long as you code transactions to the right account. Xeros Asset functionality which does depreciation is awesome which is usually an accountant function is impressive too.

      • Neil2016 on 27/02/2024 - 14:39
        +2

        Accountants do A LOT MORE than just coding! Coding is really bookkeeper’s job.

        • CachePC on 27/02/2024 - 14:49

          I wasn't implying that as accountants are a very big value add to a business and their skillset is best leveraged to add that value.
          There is a lot to running a business like BAS, payroll (STP), superannuation, FOREX, Payroll tax and a myriad of other things but for a lot of businesses it's rinse and repeat for their invoices and bills and Xero has some great features in that space that assist.

        • Tiggrrrrr on 27/02/2024 - 14:51

          Are you an accountant Neil?

      • Tomcruise on 27/02/2024 - 19:40

        I do the heavy lifting.

        I do 10 invoices per month, same people everytime. No Sales. Thats it.

        All XERO does it match an Invoice amount to an amount on the Bank Feed, not who it's from, that's it.

        I still have to double check etc before i reconcile it.

    • Tiggrrrrr on 27/02/2024 - 16:33

      Maybe you need a Scientologist accountant and pay them in thetan points?

    • Loki556 on 27/02/2024 - 17:46

      I started paying $45 a month, now it's $65.

      I’m in a similar boat, would love to bring it back down - every little bit helps.

  • Dollar General on 27/02/2024 - 14:39

    Can i keep two sets of accounts still if I use this? Asking for a friend

    • cucumber on 27/02/2024 - 14:44

      You can ask your creative accountant to create a custom report for your (friend's) needs ;)

  • cucumber on 27/02/2024 - 14:43

    Side note: I needed a recurring invoicing system that sends out the invoices automatically. Xero was perfect for it but too expensive. So I settled with Zoho Invoice which is free. No bank feed and auto reconciliation with Zoho though unless you use their online payment gateway.

  • Ilikecars on 27/02/2024 - 15:12

    Is MYOB really that bad? I found Xero a bit of a slog and cancelled my sub like 3 months ago as I wasn't using it.

    Not very user friendly imo.

    Anyone want to be my accountant and fix up my account for current financial year and provide financial statements so I'm compliant lol

    • plentifoo on 27/02/2024 - 16:13

      For how much?

  • Nuclearvodka on 27/02/2024 - 15:27

    Would that be good for a sole trader?

    I am just starting in freelance webdesign / graphic design.
    What does OzBargain recommend?

    • superforever on 27/02/2024 - 15:42

      What does OzBargain recommend?

      Xero is good for small business, I just use it to issue invoice, issue payment receipt, print reports, don't use bank reconciliation thing like that, just very basic.

      • Nuclearvodka on 27/02/2024 - 16:11

        Yeah all I need is make invoices and receipts at this stage.
        What about expenses? (internet, furniture, subcontracting etc.)

      I used xero as an SME and the auto bank conciliation is basically required as far as I'm concerned. My God it is tedious work otherwise.

      Apparently QuickBooks now offer this. Haven't used it recently so can't comment on that. Last time I used qb was 10 years ago and the interface still looked like 1995 word perfect on a 486.

    • bahgoogen on 27/02/2024 - 17:26

      Only issue i find is that if you need to accept multiple currencies, e.g. you invoice in any other currency other than $AUD, then you have to use the top tier plan which is far too expensive for a freelancer. Its a shame you cant add it on to the basic plan, otherwise i would switch immediately.

    • uraha on 27/02/2024 - 19:59

      Check out manager.io it’s free, heaps more manual work but if you’re starting out, you won’t have lots of invoices to deal with. It can also run reports

  • driverelli on 27/02/2024 - 17:45

    I'm a sole trader not sure if I should get this and an accountant or Hnry? Any feedback would be appreciated.

    • superforever on 27/02/2024 - 22:43

      You must need some kind of accounting system to keep track.

    What does OZbargain recommend for STP? I was using micro keeper for STP only, as I am moving forward with business, planning to use other more professional software, was tossing the idea between myob and Xero for STP only plan, thanks in advance.
