May 9, 2022

If you have been using DataDear to connect your Xero Cloud accounting system to Excel, you will no longer be able to do this from October 2022.

It is not all gloom for you because we already have an alternative as your perfect DataDear replacement – Accounting.BI. 

Excel Add-in for Xero Accounting – why AccountingBI is the best DataDear alternative

  • Pre-built Excel management accounting templates: to save you many hours of creating, AccountingBi offers you pre-built Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Bank covenants, and Non-Profit & Charity SORP templates that you can use. 
  • Online and desktop Excel connector – You can use the AccountingBi Excel add-in in Excel Online and the web browser versions.
