Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Online

Balancing accounts, payments to and from suppliers, reconciliation at the end of the month and year. The biggest issue is that our business outgrew QBO and we had to build our own program. However for smaller businesses with not so many customers and sales QBO is perfect I loved it until it wouldn’t load end of month reports because they were to large.

Pros

  • Custom reports.
  • Easy to learn.
  • Easy to teach how to use.

Cons

  • Need for larger customer base.
  • Customer service isn’t always quick
  • Sometimes when to many people are working in it at the same time there are issues.
  • Easy to teach and learn so great for business.
  • I didn’t pay for it the company did so I’m not sure the ROI
We used it for most of business until we outgrew it.
