Vetted Review

  • Quickbooks is the easiest and most simple way to get a new business up and running. We have grown the company to 50+ employees and approximately 200 active contractors a year and have found the package to grow nicely with us.
  • Eventually, Quickbooks won't scale, but we will likely reach at least 100 employees and multiple business locations in different countries before we switch to a more enterprise wide system.
  • Compared to managed services, which can often run $100K+ per year, we are receiving exceptional value for less than $5K a year in managing and administering Quickbooks

  • All accounting and finance functions, including payroll, fixed assets, and other accounting areas.
No
We used Quickbooks from the start
  • Implemented in-house
I would go with all standard options - why reinvent the wheel when it works?
  • Self-taught
It was a snap to learn - extremely intuitive.
Yes
It is very affordable
We did have a few long wait times a few years back but I have not heard of any complaints from our accounting department recently.
  • Quickbase (also from Intuit)
We used extensive integration to Quickbase which we use as our project management and project tracking tool. It works incredibly smoothly.
  • No
Very easy in the few times we had to use them.
