Looking for a Xero alternative?
Get better bang for your buck with Reckon accounting software
Reckon is the ideal Xero alternative. Here’s why!
- Reckon One pricing starts from $12/month while Xero’s is $29. That’s a big saving on accounting software for small businesses!
- Unlimited employees for payroll & STP. Reckon’s price stays the same if you have 1 or 100+ employees. Xero drastically increases as you take on more employees.
- Latest design & UX. Our accounting software was built more recently than Xero and uses the latest design trends and user experience.
- Phone support. Reckon One includes free phone customer support during business hours via a dedicated phone number, with Xero you only get email support.
