We used QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for paying our vendors, bank reconciliations, and budgeting. We utilize the budgeting for our board meetings and present financial reports to the board. It is exceptional because it can easily be exported to Excel and modified to show the data needed.
  • Updates on time
  • Data for financial reports anyway you want it
  • Bank Reconciliation
  • Anytime there is a change then a notice needs to be sent
  • The PDF format for bank recs changed and I don't like it
It is exceptional in creating reports. We need to present financials to our board members so they see where we are in the year with the over-budget info in either dollars or percentages or both. It is also helpful if we want to do a comparison between years.

It helps us record our company's cash inflows and outflows in a proper auditable format. We use it to move data from one software to another budgeting tool with a lot of ease. I use the QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise's data via an ETL and integrate that into Power BI seamlessly.
  • Recording transactions
  • Keeping customer data
  • Keep donors history
  • UI/UX
  • The application is quite slow
QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is suited for both non-profits and private companies to keep the company's financial data in check. It helps us keep the data at our reach anytime, any data historical since the implementation of QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise in the firm. We can keep the stock and check due date checks.

We use QuickBooks to pay our vendors and keep up with deposits. We do not send invoices via QuickBooks. We keep up with 1099 employees thru Quickbooks. It is very easy to reconcile our accounts in Quickbooks. Quickbooks Desktop is very easy to use and learn. I like the fact that I have plenty of room in the memo to describe the services we are writing a check for, or to put what the case expense was and for what client.
  • Ease of reconciliation
  • keeping track of deposits into varying accounts
  • keeping up with 1099 employees
  • report for certain criteria
  • make it easier to get Quickbooks Desktop when downloading
It is well suited for Law Practices. Quickbooks Desktop can keep all your accounts separate and easily reconcilable. There are many sub accounts to be able to keep up with client expenses and firm expenses. Gathering a list of 1099 employees is seemless.

QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise was used as our accounting software for 25+ years. During that time, we used it for payroll, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable, along with keeping all of our books and finance records. WE have recently switched to the QuickBooks Online because we do not want to host a server any longer.
  • Accounts Payable
  • Accounts Receivable
  • Finance Reporting
  • In my experience, importing Files is tricky and difficult to understand
  • Customer Service - we found it very difficult to find the right human to talk to about any issues or questions you might have
  • Have to host on your own server
I think QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is well suited for your basic accounting software needs. For us, the integration of an offsite point of sale system deemed glitchy and ultimately a failure. In my experience, the most difficult part is finding the right person who can help you with either the Intuit POS system or the QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise.

We use QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for our general accounting needs as well as inventory management across multiple site locations. We also use the advanced inventory module. This is very helpful in the manufacturing and contract manufacturing that we do. One other feature that is very helpful for our business is the advanced pricing tool. This allows us to set price levels for different types of customers.
  • GL accounting
  • Inventory tracking
  • Build Mfg Items
  • reports could be easier to filter and sort
  • invoice forms could be more customizable
if you are a mid sized business with multiple locations and many different products this is a great solution. It also can handle combining parts and inventory into bundles or new items well. The price is super affordable for what it offers. Also with the cloud services they offer it can be all online which is great.

We use QuickBooks Desktop (QBD) for many clients in many industries whether it is construction, E-commerce, Restaurants and many more. We use QuickBooks Desktop for accounting point of view where manage all the financials of the clients including reporting. We manage the accounting of the clients from various locations and as per the location we bifurcated the accounting so that going forward we can create the reports as per the location. We use the accounting numbers for budgeting as well, which means we can also forecast the future numbers as per the current year financials created in the QuickBooks desktop.
  • Invoicing
  • Journal entry
  • Class level bifurcation
  • Inegration
  • Sometimes the reporting is not getting saved
We are using QuickBooks Desktop for many clients. It is well suited for the small and medium entriprises where we can easily mange all the things related to accounting whether it is invoice posting, tax related activities, journal entry all the income and expese related activities, Payroll related activity. We can also manage the accounting if you have entities at different locations by using the feature of location. We can also download the report by using the filter option. We can also integrate the QuickBooks Desktop with third party application here we have connected with Bill.com, QuickBase and other application by using its API.

We've used QuickBooks many years for managing multiple ecommerce companies, amazon sales, and wholesale sales. We use it to track our inventory which ranges from simple single bottle supplements to complex multi piece builds for large packages of items. There are plenty of connectors to the web platforms available for Shopify, amazon, etc that work great.
  • Reporting
  • Inventory Management
  • Ecommerce Integrations
  • Enterprise could use the same integration/data pulls that QB online offers
  • direct connections to Shopify
  • direct connections to amazon
QuickBooks works great for managing our ecommerce companies. We are hitting a space issue due to the number of transactions we're are now running daily for sales receipts, etc. We use a separate hosting platform to be able to access enterprise from any location for our remote workers and for when we are out but have a secure connection.

We utilize Quickbooks for our order quotes, sales orders, invoicing, purchase orders, and reporting. There are extra features to Quickbooks that we do not use such as inventory, payroll, etc. It is a great product and pretty much the industry standard. It seems that intui/quickbooks has gotten so famous that they do not pay much attention to service. It is outsourced and the language barrier can be in issue at times. That is if you have 45 mins to an hour to wait to speak to someone.
  • Reporting
  • Intuitive
  • Easy to use
  • Support
  • Customer Service
  • Cost
I give them a 7 as they have built up the product to be basically the standard for small business. Most accountants only want your information in a Quickbook format. Their customer service and support is the only thing holding them back from a higher rating. I think they have gotten too big and they are ok with being above average, instead of striving to be excellent

We have been using Quick Books Desktop Enterprise to keep track of our accounts payable and receivable. It is a very user friendly option that we would highly recommend to any medium size business. QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise has great reporting and works very well on the cloud. It is nice that we can give our accountants access to what they need as well.

We are a small manufacture and find QuickBooks and essential part of our day to day operations. We find the overall ease of use and ability to capture most of our financial requirements far superior to other products we have tried. The only downside is the lack of knowledge of some IT providers to support the software.
  • Monthly Financial Reports
  • Job Costing
  • Account receivables
  • Account Payables
  • IT Support
  • Updates
  • Training
Very well suited for a small to medium sized business, not sure its suitability for larger organizations.

I think QuickBooks Enterprise is great for small businesses. I have used it for the 15 years to run businesses and it's great. It's very intuitive to use. You can do everything from bill pay to paying employees just from this software.

I use QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for my whole financial package. General accounting and payroll. It is the most complete, easy to use, and understand program that I have used. It has a full history of past entries.
In addition, the few times that I have needed support, i.e. through MS upgrades, the tech support provided the help that I needed.

We use QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise to managed the back office accounting for our online retail stores and have used it to do the same when we had our own brick and mortar store. Being a pretty common software we have found a lot of integrations that work with it from our shopping card, our order management, our shipping and even out sales tax reporting.
  • Easy of use
  • a lot of off the shelf integrations
  • cannot natively print price tags for our products. It can print bar code, but not easily print price tags .
  • I think the cost per user for an off the shelf product is a little high.
As mentioned earlier there are plenty of integrations that work with it making it easy to share or pass data between programs such as our shopping cart, order management software, tax reporting software, shipping, etc. The cost if significantly higher than the cost of regular Quickbooks Premier, but there as some nice features that help make the additional cost a little more palatable. We used to use Quickbooks POS with it, but that has been discontinued. We used that to print price tags to put on our products, but in my experience, QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise or all it does with barcode and such does not have an easy way to take a PO and print price tags for shipments as they come in.

I use QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise to run 4 multimillion dollar companies. QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise takes care of all our financial needs with ease of access for bill payments, collections, reports and budgeting. We staff 6 people that before their employment with us had no experience but after a short time have become proficient users because of the ease in applications.
  • Produces critical reports
  • Quick customer info look up
  • Check writing
  • Making administrative changes without having to switch to single user
  • Assigning a number automatically to credit memos
  • Needing supervisor override to make changes
I highly recommend any business to use QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise as it has so many facets to it that a large company or a small company can use it and either use all aspects of it or as little needed. In my experience, QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is easy to learn which makes it easy for a start up business or a seasoned professional to get what they need in no time.

I can't think of any company that would not be able to use this and love it.

We use Quickbooks Enterprise as our complete ERP solution. From Accounts Receivables, and Payables, to Inventory Management, Quotes, and Orders, Quickbooks Enterprise is our primary tool for day to day business.
  • Inventory Management
  • Purchase Orders, Quotes, and Sales Orders
  • Payroll
  • It's a great product and from our perspective we can't see any need to improve.
If you run a small to medium sized business Quickbooks is likely to be a good fit for your company. Upon deploying Quickbooks you are given the option to start your company with 1 of approximately 8 different prebuilt company formats making the process much easier.

QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is the software we use to run the financial operations of our company. With this, we are able to track receivables, payables, project costs, budgets, taxes, payroll, etc. Without it, we would not know how our business is doing. The professionalism that QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise gives us, not only helps us in our internal operations but gives us credibility with banking institutions, bonding agencies and customers that require a full picture of the health of our company. Like many of the external relationships, Quickbooks is a partner to our company's overall well being.
  • Overall accounting
  • Project costs
  • Payroll
  • Taxes
  • Personalize reports
  • Software training
  • Adjustable reports after created
QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is a great software to use. However, the cost of the software has changed from $499-$599 every 3-4 years to an annual fee of $899 is a bit strangling to a small business. The software has not given an increase in value, only an increase in price. It's a little disappointing since I've been using this software for almost 27 years.

We use this software to record our building management transactions, the software works well with Buildium, the property management software we use. We enter bills from accounts payable and accounts receivable, we are able to reconciliate bank statements and issue compensations for employees through the software. We also use the check printing and bill pay capabilities.

We moved from QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise to Blackbaud Financial Edge for our non-profit needs. (Multi-fund Accounting) - Also better integration with Donor Database and AP Review. Online, multiple user access more streamlined. AP Approval Process. More
  • Bank Reconciliation - Matching - Integration
  • Robust Reporting (Ease of use and creation)
  • It's familiar - I've been using it for years and it "makes sense" to me. The change to Blackbaud has been difficult, cumbersome, slow.
  • AP Approval Process requires separate App. (Not well integrated)
  • Not Online (Cloud-based) Solution
  • Doesn't seem to be evolving along with capabilities of QuickBooks Online (Seems stuck in the past)
Best suited for mid-size companies that need more robust reporting than QuickBooks Online can offer. Better for only a few users (More gets tricky - even with RightNetworks.) Too cumbersome for small companies - QuickBooks Online is a much better solution overall - And seems to be developing well. There are few scenarios that I would recommend QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise - The last recommendation was because the company did not want their information online at all and felt that was more secure on the desktop.

Most definitely the #1 software to take your accounting system from spreadsheets (or paper) to an actual system where you can run reports, keep track of inventory, payroll, purchase orders, etc. Very easy to setup and expand as your needs grow.
  • Invoicing
  • Po's
  • Receiving
  • Easy to search for data
  • More standard reports
Great for small businesses that are looking for a simple solution to manual accounting processes. I do not recommended for large Manufacturing companies as not sure that the bill of material section can handle complex builds.

I manage the accounting for 14 companies and foundations. All payables, receivables and accounting is done through QuickBooks.
QuickBooks makes accounting and audit preparation very simple and straightforward. It is easily customizable for each different company. Cash management is also very easy using the registers and the hundreds of customizable reports generated monthly and annually.
  • Processing payments is easy with memorized transactions and last entered detail
  • Vendor history is easily accessed on demand
  • Customizable reports serve the trustees well
  • Annual audits are quick and easy with everything in one place
  • The software becomes "cranky" more often than I would like. A quick data scan on the server usually helps, but if I am out the staff get pretty stressed.
  • Record Retention is not working with QuickBooks. Should there be legal action requesting records for 20 years ago the records will be there - not advisable.
  • Upgrades are quite time consuming as I have to "touch" every computer using the software.
The accounts payable process is so quick and easy with the remembered last transaction. This also reduces the time needed to figure out the coding from the Chart of Accounts.
Access by multiple staff concurrently reduces frustration of having to wait for access to a company's records and processes.
Staff do not have to have accounting degrees to be able to manage company records because QuickBooks generates the path for each entry that gets the data entered correctly for basic accounting principles and audits.

Used to keep the books for 5 different enterprises.
  • Easy to use - Intuitve
  • Easy to customize
  • Allows multiple users
  • Sometimes the shared database engine gets messed up and the server needs to be restarted - that shouldn't happen
  • Deep reporting and analysis tools are severely lacking
  • Security is not as tight as I would prefer
  • Really wish it would prompt to take credits and discounts when paying bills
It gets the job done and does the basics well while being easy for new users to use. QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is well-suited for companies that need to have many users working at the same time. If you only have 1 or 2 users, then it is overkill.

We utilize QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for our daily bookkeeping and financial reporting. This is where we enter in our daily transactions to track income as well as all of our accounts payable transactions. General Journal entries are quick and easy to input and allow for me to allocate every penny to the correct account. This is crucial for budgeting. The same can be said for accounts payable. Everything is well organized and easy to locate and analyze. With the click of a few buttons, I can find any expense with the corresponding invoice. We do not utilize QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for invoicing due to the nature of our business. All invoicing is handled through our veterinary software. QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is where we go for all of our budgeting. Because everything is well organized and detailed, you can look at as big or as little of the picture as you want. We utilize the software to locate any areas of concern within the budget. The software can be difficult for new users without training as it is not extremely intuitive. There are numerous tutorials available, however, and once you learn how to navigate it, the software is incredibly easy to use.
  • Detailed organization of financial information
  • Several security measures and double check systems to ensure incorrect entries aren't made. This prevents accidental errors and protects the company from fraud.
  • Ease of overall use
  • Reporting can be as detailed or as general as you prefer. Each report allows you to look at the overall picture or access specific details of each aspect of the company financials.
  • The system is not intuitive. Without training or guidance from another user familiar with the program, it can be difficult to navigate.
  • Remote access requires a third party.
  • Bank Feeds can be finicky when trying to load transactions. There are frequent connection issues and errors.
Quickbooks Desktop Enterprise is great for any small business. It makes book keeping easy, efficient, and accurate. I couldn't imagine trying to manage the books without it. The checks and balances prevent unintentional mistakes or fraud. The security measures that can be put in place can give the owner the peace of mind that they can control access and truly know what is going on with their business at all times. A larger business with multiple users may be better suited for QuickBooks Online. QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise requires a third party for remote access and only permits one user.
