Xero's online accounting software is designed specifically for small businesses and provides a low cost, reliable web-based platform that allows business owners to capture real-time financial information about their company, share access directly with key staff and their accountant and grow their business more effectively.
The criteria for XERO Silver Partner Status includes:
- The company must have at least one Certified Advisor in the practice who has successfully completed a robust Xero training programme and passed a test to demonstrate extensive knowledge of the Xero software. CKLG currently has 2 certified advisers and we currently in the process of training our 3rd adviser ready for August.
- Qualifying companies need to have between 25-99 clients using Xero.
The wide spread use of the internet, smartphones and tablets have transformed the way in which small businesses manage their accounts. Online accounting packages, such as Xero, offer small businesses better protection and security for sharing private information; tighter control over financial forecasts, business expenditure, budgets and transactions; better connections and transactions with customers and the freedom to view and manage their accounts anytime, anywhere.

Having recognised our clients need to simplify and manage their accountants and tax more efficiently, CKLG Accountants are committed to providing the latest technology and accountancy services available to small and growing businesses in Cambridge”.
