Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Desktop Pro

I use QBDP to manage all the accounting for my business. From processing payroll, to generating invoices, to tracking expenses, QBDP is the foundation of the financial management of my entire business. On the expense side, I track checking and savings accounts, Venmo and PayPal accounts, and numerous credit cards. The credit card data can be automatically imported into QuickBooks, and I suppose the banking could too - but Wells Fargo wants to charge me for that, so that's not happening.

I can process credit cards through QBDP as well as generate a Pay Online link on an invoice to accept both credit card and ACH payments on the web. When I'm running payroll, which happens now and then, QuickBooks is all I need to generate checks and do the necessary government payments.
  • Ease of use.
  • Robust expense management.
  • UI tweaks for style and function.
  • Better invoice design tools.
  • 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.
I already recommend QBDP to friends and clients. It's easy to learn, and powerful enough to run most businesses without causing a financial strain. Its integration with countless banks enable ease of downloading transactions and reconciling accounts. If you need payroll services it's built right into QBDP, and it'll generate the checks, track fees and withholding payments with ease.
