La vraie différence
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
FreshBooks stands out with Client-friendly invoicing and Time tracking and project costing. Xero counters with Bank reconciliation and Inventory management.
FreshBooks's Achilles heel: client limits on lower tiers are frustrating — lite caps you at 5 billable clients which is nothing. Xero's: the starter plan limits you to 20 invoices/month — most businesses outgrow it in the first quarter. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Le verdict
If you value client-friendly invoicing and les freelances et boîtes, go with FreshBooks. If les petites boîtes internationales matters more, Xero is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
