Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions
It it used solely by the accounting department and select people in our customer support team. We use it to track and reimburse employee expenses, handle payroll, charge our customers, and produce reports for upper management to make more informed decisions.
- Quickbook's user interface is incredibly user-friendly. Non-Accountants are able to pick up the system relatively easy . They should be able to enter transactions without fully understanding the accounting.
- There is a lot of material on the internet if you need help how to use Quickbooks. They have various forums in which you can find the answers since there is bound to be another person that had already experienced your problem.
- It's not suitable for subscription management. As many business start changing it's business model to a subscription model, this may be a consideration
- The canned reports do not contain enough information. When you began to add more fields to be displayed, Quickbooks can sometimes crash if you're trying to export the information excel.
- We were able to pass our financial audit. However, some parts of our balance sheet schedules needed manipulation outside of excel to tie the numbers in our balance sheet schedule to the Financial Statements.
- There is a lot less excel work than our previous system. As such, we didn't need to hire part-time accountants.
Quickbooks was chosen as it provided the best features yet affordable prices. I, however, was not the person in charge of choosing Quickbooks. I would have chosen the software for the company if I were given the choice. We were previously a software company that sold perpetual licenses and that did not require as much transactions as we did when we transitioned into a subscription model.
