Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use QuickBooks for just about everything, to input all client orders, vendor orders, and to build, track and sell our inventory. We also use it to run payroll and to manage all of our payment accounts both here in the US and in Mainland China.

Pros and Cons

Inventory management.
Purchase order management.
Sales and cost tracking.

More than one admin, as even with all restrictions off, secondary users are restricted.

Return on Investment

It has made it easier to clean up confusing projects.
With everything connected it makes it hard to misplace a transaction.

Implementation

The switchover and implementation process was a bit harder than I anticipated due to a miscommunication from my account rep who did not provide enough support, I was able to go around him and get it myself through the 800 service number.

Innovative Uses

We have used QuickBooks a long time so the switch didn't change too much other than offering a few new features that help speed up productivity.

Likelihood to Recommend

I think it works great in our manufacturing environment with the things it allows us to do, but I was a bit disappointed to find out you have to use a much more upgraded version of Online to access the same manufacturing features, as we have to pay for more seats than we need to get the functions we want in Mainland China, so online versions would be nice.
