Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Pro

I am a single accountant. This software is easy enough for my clients to use and then provide to me on a quarterly basis for review and corrections. I also use it as the only software for my own accounting and for those couple of clients where I am also the bookkeeper.
  • Ease of use for a non accountant.
  • Easy to correct when the client makes a mistake.
  • The payroll system is a nightmare unless the client is well versed. I strongly recommend that all of my clients use an outside payroll service.
  • One additional report that I would like to see, but have not yet found, is a report that will simply list all invoices by number for a given period of time. This can be helpful not only in an audit, but in verifying that the client has not doubled up on using the same in number.
  • It allows my clients to have more control over their own business.
  • Once a client does their own bookkeeping, it is easier to justify my fee if they want to outsource that to me.
  • Creative Solutions
This was a miserable program when reports had to be updated to include new expense categories.
QuickBooks Pro is great for small clients who are starting their business and have a limited budget. All of my clients are under $1 million of annual sales.
