Integration works but slow and times out, not good to partner with
I was set up as a Premium Partner and had one client on their app. Speaking only if the integration, it timed out a lot and would not update - frequently causing confusion when in the account with the client and trying to work on the account. The mapping seems fine.
Speaking as a partner, to other Xero advisors, I don't recommend working with them. As I mentioned, they set me up as a premium partner, made a specific landing page for referrals, signed me up to a commission-based system, etc. I would demo their app in a monthly webinar to dozens of startups. Not even a week after they gave a demo to a potential client they emailed me removing my partner access, so the new client couldn't see anything, nor could I demo their app in the webinar. They cited 'they made mistakes with their partner program' and focused on 'more productive partners'.
Sign up at your peril as they might leave you out in the cold too.
Lastly, their app is made to funnel to their own CFOs, and you have to rebuild each metric for each client manually.
Alternatively, check out Finmark where it has 100+ out of the box metrics - and they are much kinder to work with and much more sleek app.

Response from Forecastr
Thank you for sharing your experience with Forecastr. As a people-first organization, we value every morsel of feedback as an opportunity to improve our product and partnerships.
Firstly, we empathize with the frustrations you’ve experienced regarding the integration. There are admittedly some configuration requirements that are best handled by one of our trained Financial Analysts. We are exploring the idea of automating the integration mappings as much as possible to reduce the training requirements for end users.
Regarding your experience as a partner, we understand your disappointment and regret that our decision caused you inconvenience. As a small team servicing an extensive network of partners, we’ve learned that we need to structure our programs to maximize efficiency and mutual success. We do appreciate the efforts you’ve made to help Forecastr grow.
Thank you again for your valuable feedback. It has been well-received by our team. We will continue to work diligently to create mutually successful outcomes for all our customers and partners.
