Payments made easy - A must have for Xero customers
I am new Xero customer. Parakeet is an essential part of my accounting solution. BPAY transactions account for 50% of my suppliers and hence it was essential they could be processed along with the standard EFT payments. Parakeet not only gave me BPAY automation but provided the ability for me to process multi bank account payments within the same database.
Implementation was simple, backed up with prompt and experienced support.

We have finally found a solution for automating Accounts Payable and freeing up considerable time within our business.
Charles and the team at Parakeet have been so responsive to our requests and feedback, even implementing changes to the software in order to suit the needs of our business. Highly recommend!
