I am a bit confused by this software . It looks rather light to be  described as full accounting software as it claims . It seems to be more like bookeeping software .

Hi Eamon, 
Great, then we’ve done a brilliant job building it. Xero is built to be sold via accountants, so it’s just a traditional ledger based accounting product.
We built a layer on top of that traditional product, that layer knows the accounting rules so you don’t have to. We automate all the accounting work for you.
Smart Software!
Pete

    Sure Eamonn.

    Xero = Software
    Accountant = Accounting Knowledge
    Xero + Accountant = Costs + Frustration (sad customer)

    Bullet = Software
    Bullet = Accounting Knowledge
    Bullet = Savings + Less Frustration (Happy Customer)

    Hope that helps.

    Pete
