How to Switch From Xero to BlissNeat (Without Disrupting Your Team)

Why Managers Switch From Xero

As a manager, you're likely using Xero for accounting and expense management. However, you may be finding that Xero's expense management features are not tailored to your team's needs, resulting in wasted time and money. On average, managers spend 4+ hours/week on receipt approvals, which translates to $10,900/year. Contrary to what you might think, using an accounting-first approach like Xero can actually hinder your team's productivity.

BlissNeat, on the other hand, is an AI-powered expense management tool designed specifically for sales managers and small-medium teams like yours. By switching from Xero to BlissNeat, you can save time and money, and get a real-time spend dashboard that helps you make informed decisions.

What to Export Before You Leave Xero

Before you switch from Xero to BlissNeat, you'll need to export your data. Here's a practical checklist of what to export:

• Expense reports
• Receipts
• Vendor information
• Employee information
• Accounting data (e.g. invoices, payments)

It's worth noting that some managers believe they need to export all their data at once, but in reality, you can export data in batches and migrate it to BlissNeat as needed.
