User Testimonials
	QuickBooks Online Advanced
Likelihood to Recommend	Intuit Smaller businesses that need affordable accounting software that many people are used to should look at Quickbooks. QuickBooks makes it easier for people to access your books from multiple locations. If cost is an issue, QuickBooks is very affordable, given you do not need to install and maintain a server. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Intuit It allows us to link to bank accounts in order to get up-to-date, real-time information, which is so important in today's lightning speed work world. The "canned" reports are excellent and allow for extreme customization also. This makes them very helpful to both me and my clients. The user interface for QuickBooks Online Advanced is easy to navigate and is intuitive for novices. The screens are well laid out and have cohesiveness on each screen to match tasks with others that match up well. Incentivized MC Melissa Cartee Principal Read full review
Cons	Intuit Proper advice in QuickBooks Online Pro for the usage if QuickBooks Online Advanced will be more efficient. More features and space in the app for organization of the self-created workflows. The stability of QuickBooks Online Advanced can still be better. There are still file-size issues and limitations on transactions and attributes of transactions. Steffen Jäschke Projektspezialist bei Steffen Jäschke EinzUnt Physik, Berechnungen Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Intuit It has become second nature to use Quick Books at the company. If you need a report you log in and pull the report. It helps expedite reconciliation of bank accounts, the automation of most tasks make it easy to get mundane tasks completed quickly. Incentivized JH James Hargis Director of Business and Continuity Read full review
Usability	Intuit QuickBooks Online Advanced is highly usable and intuitive for most day-to-day financial tasks. Its interface is clear, and core functions such as invoicing, reconciliation, and reporting are easy to perform. While some advanced features like report customization or integrations can be less straightforward, overall the platform offers a smooth and efficient user experience. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Reliability and Availability	Intuit In the 5 years I have been using it, I cannot recall there ever having been an outage or not being able to access the system. Sure, there are issues with internet speeds sometimes that are unrelated to Intuit but it is a very reliable system. Incentivized JH James Hargis Director of Business and Continuity Read full review
Performance	Intuit Since we do not integrate the software with other systems, I do not have any issues with speed related to that. Pages tend to load pretty quickly, but there are times when reports or other pages take a little longer to load than usual. It is not an overly frustrating amount of time, though, and it happens infrequently. Incentivized JH James Hargis Director of Business and Continuity Read full review
Online Training	Intuit The online training is good enough. Incentivized RG Rahel Gebre Senior Accountant Read full review
Implementation Rating	Intuit I did not participate in this part particularly much. The implementation was simple and easy to perform. There were not any major issues that arose during the process. QuickBooks has made the processes pretty streamless and I believe they had anticipated many difficulties ahead of time. This was easy enough Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Intuit QuickBooks Online Advanced isn’t as robust as Netsuite or Sage, but it is generally a great choice for most businesses. This software will meet or exceed the needs of most companies, and should be the first part of your accounting software decision. I would even reach out to a QuickBooks Online Advanced expert to ensure you need to step up to Sage or Netsuite before doing so on your own. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Scalability	Intuit Software is very flexible Incentivized BJ BAJANEE Jaglall Administrative Coordinator Read full review
Return on Investment	Intuit QBOA has shown my clients the increase and decrease of my monthly income activity I am able to project my income and spending more easily The P&L reports has shown me a lot and by customizing to focus on my income and expenses has allowed me to better budget Incentivized Joyce J Moore, MBA Senior Bookkeeper Read full review
