Perbedaan Sesungguhnya
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Akaunting stands out with Open source accounting and Multi-company support. Xero counters with Inventory management and Multi-currency support.
Akaunting's Achilles heel: self-hosting requires technical skills — and the free core is limited without buying premium app extensions. 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.
Kesimpulan
If you value open source accounting and bisnis kecil yang melek, go with Akaunting. If bisnis kecil internasional yang matters more, Xero is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
