If they hadn't just forced an upgrade on users, doubled prices, and touted bad support as a benefit, they'd be OK.

(26-50 of 121)Off the Grid
- Affordable option to keep your data all in one place.
- Easy to use and train employees on how to use.
Quickbooks Pro: Still “pro” for a reason
- Allows for consistent billing process.
- Provides a one stop shop for tax documents.
Quickbooks at a glance
- QuickBooks Desktop Pro is a no hassle accounting solution that ticks a lot of boxes. It almost never disappoints and organizations will usually keep using it for many years. If anything, the only time I've seen an organization migrate away from it is if they have specific accounting needs, or if the organization has grown to the point that they need a more robust accounting solution. Even then, QuickBooks can usually be maintained within another accounting software system for specific functions, like A/R & A/P for example.
- Less time spent doing accounting work when I can be working on something billable for a client.
- Easy to generate invoices, and bill clients for expenses directly related to that invoice.
Really Great Product to Handle All of your Bookkeeping Needs
- It's freed up time and effort for our organization to dig into other challenges with our business. We now have more time to address those challenges.
- We are able to do more in-house instead of outsourcing some of our tax/financial management.
QuickBooks Desktop Pro Review
- Large ROI for small companies.
- Government accounting requirements saves costs by incorporating compliance without need for additional staff.
No Accounting Degree Required!
- Well, accurate books/accounts are always a good thing!
- Again, the reporting capability is good for us.
Great accounting software
- QuickBooks has been nothing but a great time saver for us!
For those who don't trust the cloud
- Much faster turnover on accounting compared to done-by-hand accounting
- Cost of employing a dedicated accountant is more expensive
Great for SMB
- The tie in between programs that QuickBooks enables makes life easier.
QuickBooks -- The must have for any small to medium sized business
- QuickBooks gives me and my clients a quick view of cash performance.
- QuickBooks allows a deeper cost analysis using the % of revenue column to track expenses year to year
QuickBooks Desktop Pro Review
- QuickBooks is amazing. It really can sell itself. They have an outstanding record.
Makes book work a breeze!
- It makes budgeting much easier because you can pull reports.
- It is a bit costly to get started, but it is worth it in the long run.
- It saves my time because I don't have to deal with individually entering everything.
Easy, intuitive, and does it all!
- The simplicity of anything. For example, processing payroll, is so streamlined that I can do it in just a few minutes with only a few keystrokes. Efficient!
- Pulling reports with a few clicks of a mouse to provide to owners is a life saver!
QuickBooks Pro is a must-have!
- Quickbooks is great. I use it most of the day, and it has a positive impact on my time.
The go-to solution for all things accounting
- Considering how low the cost of the software is, it pays for itself in a single tax year by allowing you to send a tax preparer file to your accountant, saving tons of time printing out reports manually, or trying to keep track of accounting by hand.
- There are no negative impacts. When we first started using it, we kept a manual set of books as well as using QuickBooks, and when there was ever an accounting discrepancy between the two, it was always an error in the manual books, not in the software books.
Good tool, but be careful with your database backups
- Keep good track of our books.
- Excellent cost and benefit.
- Help detect fraud with bank reconciliation.
QuickBooks Pro - Good for the little guy
- QuickBooks eliminated the problem of me missing incidental project costs when it came for invoicing.
- As a sole proprietor, taking the time to properly set up tax lines early on has saved large amounts of reporting time during tax preparation.
QuickBooks Desktop Pro makes accounting work quick
- QuickBooks Desktop Pro saves us time in creating and tracking invoices.
- QuickBooks Desktop Pro saves us time in tracking and paying vendors.
- QuickBooks Desktop Pro saves us A LOT of time in reconciling our bank statements.
- Being able to see who has not paid in list or chart has literally saved us over $10,000 each year.
- The fact that bills can be emailed or faxed internally has been priceless.
Quickbooks can't be beat
- I wouldn't be able to run my business without it.
- It allows me to keep a close eye on my financials so I can make adjustments that will positively effect my ROI.
- Because the Quickbooks files are so widely accepted by financial professionals it saves me time in getting my info to my CPA.
- In terms of ROI, it is infinite. In terms of the functions we use, the large expense, for a mid-level ERP system, would have been wasted.
- The company has several operating bank accounts. A simple check-writing plugin allows us to save thousands per year on pre-printed check stock.
- The way we set up the GL, we were able to save 10 hours per month on intercompany reconciliations.
QuickBooks Pro is a User Friendly Accounting Software
- The ease of using QuickBooks has enabled me to get more clients.
- My clients are pleased with the type of reports they get, which helps me retain their business.
- I have a client who uses the accrual accounting method and there are vendor reports that I would like to be able to run without having to export it first. I will say that there may be but I haven't found it yet.
Small Business essential software
- Lets you manage your business finances in one place, no need for multiple software.
QuickBooks is THE accounting software for business
- Long term use - Once the system is set - ROI is endless due to the longevity of the program.
- Multi user - Being able to have multiple users, some remote, has been a very positive aspect of QB Pro.
- Upgrades within - It is nice the system will alert you when there are upgrades available, rather than have to upload a new version and upload/download files to a newer system.
- Overall, we have had the same QB system for many years and been happy with it.
