Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Desktop Pro

QuickBooks Desktop Pro is used for basic accounting of my small business and [analytical] reports.
  • Easy to update and understand.
  • Makes tax reports, other government report[s], insurance submissions[,] and compliance accurate and mostly automatic.
  • Can download bank transactions with some automatic accounting info.
  • [Sometimes] automatic rules miss posts and hard to determine why.
  • When typing [an] account it will after a while start to default to the first account starting with that letter.
  • Help can be improved often can't find answers to problems or questions.
  • Compliance is positive
  • Need some or more shortcuts to transaction posting

Few quirks that I can't fix and would like more customizing.
Only used them once when TD changed it bank feed system...it took several phone calls and many hours to fix what was a known problem.
Good for day to day accounting...adding special processing to standard reports isn't clear if it is even possible eg profit margin, payroll as % of sales.
