I stand corrected. Have hired 128 so far in calendar year and have 100!!!!! open positions.

Competition for the best new job title.
Next they will be wanting a slide: http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post...-in-new-office
In shareprice related news, Freshbooks, a current Xero add-on is moving into the accounting space. Will be interesting to see what this does for Xero: http://www.diversity.net.nz/back-to-...ng/2012/08/30/
I actually took a photo of that slide the other day when I was in Wellington, just to post on here! It's in the new Xero building, so I actually assumed it was Xero's. I didn't realise they shared their fancy new office with Trademe (there was no Trademe signage, which seems odd).
At the top of the slide were about 4 safety signs with all the warnings of what not to do on the slide. LOL.
Do you only get speeding tickets when the price goes down?
Depends if your CEO is on the board of the Regulator.
If this is the case, please explain letters are only issued once every blue moon (hence the letter last week) and the requirement to fully comply with other disclosure requirements are optional, though "strongly recommended".
Now it gets interesting, Intiut- the company that has the lions share of the US market comes to play in Xero's back yard.
"From Intuit’s perspective, director of global accountant strategy and programs Rich Walker says Australia is a significant growth opportunity for the firm, which reported revenues of $US4.15 billion in the 2012 fiscal year.
“As we looked into the opportunity in Australia, we felt that we had a great opportunity, given the large number of small and medium sized businesses here, to bring QuickBooks online directly into the market with a localised Australian version,” Walker says.

Quickbooks was already in the Australian market, but licensed through Reacon, not direct from Intiut (that license has now expired to Intiut can go direct). So now Xero has three competitors in Australia - MYOB, Reacon and Intiut.
My understand is that Xero still has the most comprehensive full cloud solution and is has (almost) as much features as a full desktop solution for SME's. The others are either a hosted solution or the features aren't as comprehensive and more suitable for SE only.
Interesting to see how this plays out.
Disc: hold
Where there are the markets, there are competitions. I think it is not a bad news for the industry.Quote:

I have used MYOB forclose to 20 years and Xero for a year. Frankly I have found the transition from MYOB to Xero less than straight forward, as the format of Xero is quite different from MYOB. Having it on the cloud is really useful where there are multiple users working remotely as the charity I act for does. What pains me with MYOB is their business model of releasing upgrades with almost useless "improved " functionality and a refusal to support older versions of their software. Sometimes I am about 3 versions behind. Xero reports are better formatted than MYOB. However Xero prermissions require careful set up as many functions such as Journals are shut off from ordinary users.
