QuickBooks Desktop Pro

Simple and easy to correct issues!

Comments: All good. No issues. Anything I found that it couldn’t do there was a workaround for.

Pros:

Very simple to correct errors. It is clear and little to none training needed.

Cons:

Nothing. I love this program and would get it again.

QuickBooks Desktop Pro: The CornerStone Bookkeeping Software

Comments: Overall, it's a wonderful product that is the cornerstone of the bookkeeping industry. The features and functions are plentiful and the computing power is enough for most small businesses and any startup.

Pros:

Most existing accounting pros know this software well enough to jump into a client copy or backup copy to send back to the client etc. For years, this has been the value play in accounting software due to being able to host multiple companies under one subscription. Features are plentiful, more than you'll probably need unless you're running a large operation with many accounting staff.

Cons:

Lack of cloud based development environment is the number one con for QuickBooks Desktop Pro. It seems like much more (friendly) integration is available through QuickBooks Online

Low cost solution with frequent upkeep

Comments: After all of our maintenance issues I would never use Quickbooks Desktop again. Cloud version is the way to go.

Pros:

Quickbooks Desktop is a low cost solution for our Finance department that requires a lot of maintenance. It's fairly easy to use and gets the job done when the application is working properly.

Cons:

We use it on a server because having several individual workstations running the software was a nightmare. The server frequently locks up and needs to be restarted weekly due to the high usage. The application also has issues with printing every so often because it relies on the Microsoft XPS Document writer. If the printer gets removed or corrupted, it is a pain to recover. Also updating to the latest release can be a pain because the install has issues sometimes. Because of all these issues, I highly recommend moving to Quickbooks online.

QuickBooks

Comments: It was ok i used it for about nine years and only used about fifty percent of the features.

Pros:

It was very convenient being able to use multiple business on the same software.

Cons:

The set up was confusing and hard to customize for beginners.

Adaptable Accounting Software

Pros:

This is an accounting software, extremely important to effectively run any business. It’s quite affordable, and at the same time it’s flexible enough to adapt to your company’s needs without limiting you to any safety features.

Cons:

Customer service is very poor. Simple questions are extremely difficult to get answered or corrected.
