Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Online

We use QuickBooks Online for our accounting/bookkeeping. I am the sole user at my company, but also advise others with their QBO setup and use. I also use QBO Accountant to do bookkeeping for other companies. For me, QBO solves the business problem of easily achieving real-time bookkeeping and reportable financial information.
  • Easy integration with bank accounts.
  • Easy to classify transactions.
  • Easy reporting.
  • PayPal integration doesn’t work anymore.
  • Automated fixed asset depreciation.
  • Automated loan amortization.
  • Reduced time spent on bookkeeping
  • Reduced time to create reports
  • Quicker access to customer books
FreshBooks is trying to do more bookkeeping and accounting, but QuickBooks Online greatly surpasses in terms of functionality and integrations. FreshBooks can easily manage invoices and very basic reporting.

Very easy to use for what I need. Good bank account integrations for easy bookkeeping and transaction management.
I’ve never had to use their support service.
QuickBooks Online is perfect for small businesses who want an easy-to-use User Interface (UI). It’s very intuitive and easy to learn. You can even send invoices and process payroll on the same system. One area that may be difficult is if you have a lot of fixed assets to manage. There’s a lack of automated useful life/depreciation tracking.
