While most people may think of app stores as places where individuals can go to purchase every kind of app under the sun for their smartphone, the fact of the matter is that small businesses need apps to run their operations too, which is precisely why cloud-based accounting company Xero has launched its very own app store to make it easier for its clients to get the software they need to run their businesses.
The 'Xero App Store' offers a range of over 1,000 apps that includes payment platforms, workforce management solutions, inventory services, time-management programs and several other apps that make running one's business a smoother endeavor.
By creating its own standalone app store, Xero is making a strong push to become the first place that proprietors go to when they need new software and apps to take care of their small businesses.
