Pros / Cons
  • Even though Xero lack global enterprises accounting features it has a robust integration capability that allows me to connect with external tools such as SAP Concur.
  • It is not great for multi-company businesses as you cannot be logged into more than 1 at once, you have to chop and change between them and to make intercompany transactions, you need to post separately in both entities.

  • Zahara is a relatively user friendly system, with great reporting tools and an exceptional ability to create workflows.
  • Set-up was quite labour-intensive due to the complexities of our approval system.
