Overall Satisfaction with QuickBooks Pro
Since we provide a service, we have found that Quickbooks Pro Premier Services edition allows us to charge for time and materials easily. We currently are aggregating employee billable time sheets which are easily imported into QuickBooks Pro, which then automatically appear when generating invoices. Each task item is assigned a price class and is calculated automatically by the system, making invoicing and the tracking of employee billable time really easy. Currently, QuickBooks Pro is only used by the accounting and operations department, there is no need to expand its use to other areas of the company.
- Aggregation of employee time sheets
- Granular control over invoicing
- Emailing functionality leaves a lot to be desired
- Invoice reporting functionality is very clunky. There is no reason why their reporting engine is so rudimentary - this technology has been around for decades to improve on the built-in reporting/invoicing templates.
- Support for all kinds of font formats (only TTF are truly supported, OTF are not)
- Support for vector formatted images in reports/invoices. Don't see why eps or svg files (open format) are not able to be used.
- Overall, we've had a positive ROI in using QuickBooks Pro
- AccountEdge Pro
Ultimately, QuickBooks Pro was better suited for how we internally run our operations. AccountEdge Pro seemed to have more bells and whistles we wouldn't need to use.
