Don't fix something that isn't broken?
I don't understand the rational behind this change. Widgets are for separated components. Accounts are interconnected. Was user feedback the basis for this change?
In a previous comment, the reply was "development mightn't always be where you'd most like to see it directed" - but are the developers the USERS of this product?
Functionality and UX are key here. I get that Xero is big, but once Xero is too big to care about its users, it may not feel the financial impact of people leaving but the word of mouth after switching to something that is user-centric will certainly impact the bottom line in the long run.
Thanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.
