Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Online Advanced

We use QBO Advanced to track expenses, issue invoices and receive payment, track A/R and A/P, and produce financial statements.

Pros

  • Track expenses
  • Invoice clients
  • Produce financial statements

Cons

  • cost of receiving payment from clients is high
  • ads are constant and take up screen space
  • too many nested menus waste my time
  • We are able to generate detailed reports that allow us to quantify per client profitability and adjust our prices accordingly.
  • We are able to generate financial statements that are trustworthy
We were set up in the first version of QBO by a previous bookkeeper and have not made the move to a different service due to the complexity of making such a move. We went from QBO standard to the advanced to be able to access more features.

Do you think QuickBooks Online Advanced delivers good value for the price?

Did QuickBooks Online Advanced live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of QuickBooks Online Advanced go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy QuickBooks Online Advanced again?

No

I would recommend it for companies that want to use the software that is the standard in the United States for now.
I would recommend that companies seriously compare with competitors that are commonly used the world over before choosing QBO. Specifically compare features and cost and UX.
