We use Quickbooks Desktop for Mac on an as-needed basis in our company. We primarily use QBO, but a couple of clients did not want to change to a cloud-based system. QB Desktop allows us to keep these clients on and will enable them to be comfortable with their bookkeeping software.

My organization loves QuickBooks, and we use it for almost everything. We use it for invoice creation, payroll, timesheets, deposits, reconciliation, financial reports, etc. We do not have problems with it. We wish it could have multiple administrators when connecting it with our budget software. Sometimes, it doesn't keep our accrued time correctly.

Best Accounting Purchase for any Business.

I'm the sole employee and QuickBooks program has been the best decision I could have made for the organization. We are a very small not for profit and even though we don't have a whole lot of income/expenses/line items, QuickBooks works very well for us. The only issue I encounter is when dealing with new sales and customizing our own invoice/statements.

I have used Quickbooks Desktop for Mac for about 4 months. I wish I could get my money back but I'm outside the 60-day window that they allow for full refunds. Overall, my experience with Quickbooks for Mac has been the largest train wreck that I've ever experienced. Tech support is incredibly hard to get a hold of and once you do, they tell you that you have to call back for another department. How insanely difficult it can be to just talk with a human. Once you do get the right department, they put you on hold for hours trying to figure out what is wrong. I've done a clean install and re-booted a million times. I am so incredibly disappointed with my purchase decision that I am now looking at Quickbooks alternatives. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PROJECT TO ANYONE!

QuickBooks Desktop for Mac is not the greatest - but if you already know how to do bookkeeping it's a pretty good option.

I currently use QuickBooks Desktop for Mac for both of my companies. I would be lying if I said I love it. But let me clarify a little - I am NOT a numbers person. I have never had any training at all in accounting or bookkeeping. Like many people, I had to learn how to do things because I decided to start a business and suddenly realized that everything needed to be tracked, saved, etc and did not have the resources to hire bookkeeper. So I learned on the fly. And I'm still learning. It's not the most intuitive software but at this point I'm familiar enough with it that it gets the job done of keeping our books and generating the reports I need come tax time and, more regularly, to see how the business is doing.
