QuickBooks Pro Software

Pros

I use quickBooks for all my small business accounting needs, it gives me the data I need especially when I meet with my accountant.

Cons

There are reports that I absolutely never use and I don't understand why these are here. I think there should be a tutorial on all reports.

Pros

It's easy to learn and feels more natural for non-accounting experts. I like the register aspect and the ease of creating custom invoices and purchase orders, etc. I also like the ability to add custom fields to track just about anything.

Cons

I don't really have any issues with the software. Getting help online is a hassle with there being so many versions, but thankfully we haven't needed too much support.

Pros

Quickbooks Pro has been an invaluable resource for my business, not only does it provide many opportunity's to track my profit centers, but it also allows for me to offer a high level of customer service by keeping customer payment information at my finger tips and make it convenient for them to say "use my card on file" and i am able to give my customer a high level of service.

Cons

Quickbooks pro is an excellent software but it does have a few quarks like when syncing automatic payments and automatically creating invoices if the customer account has a "&" or other special character it will fail to make the invoice. In my business a lot of the accounts are listed with multiple individuals and we must use "and" instead of a special character not to avoid this. however that does not help us for the rest of our accounts listed this way.

Overall, QuickBooks is a great tool. I don't know the first thing about accounting, but this software is so easy to use that it was simple to teach myself how to do it.

Pros

We use Pro 15. QuickBooks is great for keeping track of just about everything for accounting. We have been using it for years. The one thing we really like is the amount of access you can give to another user. We have someone who only inputs our invoices. We have it blocked so that is all they can do or see.

Cons

You can't make payment through QuickBooks, even though you are supposed to be able to do so. We were told we would have to upgrade the 17 in order to make some of our bill payments, but no matter what we tried it wouldn't work. After calling support and escalating this issue to a tier 4 resolution team, it still wouldn't work. They blamed our bank, but if you read the discussion threads it is all banks.

Pros

QB allows you to download reports to excel spreadsheets that can then be minipulated to help report the business productivity. It also has a great company at a glance page.

Cons

You need to repurchase every 2-3 years. If you do not they disable some of the features such as the bank feeds download.

All around great product for the money.

Pros

QuickBooks Pro is easy to use and is very intuitive so you don't need expensive training to figure out how to do things. It has been around for so long that you can easily google issues or things you want to know how to do and there are plenty of resources out there that help.

Cons

It cannot calculate rates which is important for government contractors, therefore you need to use Excel spreadsheets to complete the task.

Pros

The learning curve was not bad at all. I had to help the finance team for several weeks when they were reduced down to 1 person, and I picked up on it very quickly. It is well put together, and intuitive.

Cons

The look was not very modern (a bit dated in the UI department). While simple, it still had its quirks with regards to navigating the program.

Pros

Quickbooks Desktop Pro has been an extremely beneficial piece of software for our business. The many features offered in Quickbooks Desktop Pro has brought everything together for us into one system. Our inventory, reports, quoting, invoicing, billing, payroll, customer and vendor lists, you name it - are all in our Quickbooks software. This has saved us countless hours of our valuable time with everything being in one place. We don't have to go searching for other software tools to handle our inventory, invoicing, payroll, etc. Another awesome feature about Quickbooks Desktop Pro - when the internet is down, Quickbooks still works :)

Cons

The biggest challenge we face using this product, is our limited number of users that are able to access the system. Since we have different employees to manage different areas of our business such as Accounts Receivable, Billing, Quoting, etc., we sometimes find it a challenge trying to balance the right time for these employees to access their portion of Quickbooks to complete their duties.

Fantastic, life-saving product! I love it!

Pros

This product has made Office Management of a prevailing wage company simple. The software has learned our company's habits and makes tracking projects a breeze. We also do certified payroll, so once I was able to establish a precise list of payroll items for each labor classification, it has made issuing payroll very simple. I especially like the ability to import transactions directly from our Bank Feeds. Whenever I have had an issue, their support team has been there every time.

Cons

It's hard to find something I don't like, but I would have to say if I had to be nit-picky it would be minor defaults that the system makes when issuing paychecks. We work with Fringe Benefits, so it usually transfers in the previous week's hours into the fringe benefits field, and if not double-checked the hours may not match up with the current week's hours.

The desktop version is much easier to use than the online version, which I find very challenging.

Pros

I am a long-time user of Quickbooks destop products. I have worked with many different versions and have come to appreciate each one. I find the software easy to use and understand and quick to learn.

Cons

Some versions of Quickbooks are limited with how they can report data. I am currently using QB Pro 2017 and could use more flexibility in creating sales reports for the sales regions. Other than that, I have no other complaints.

Pros

I love being able to invoice and manage my entire book of business with Quickbooks Premier. I also love that I’m able to export that entire book of business to one simple file and do my taxes for my business so easily.

Cons

Although it is easy to learn the basics, Quickbooks Premier is very tough to master and use effectively. I had to take an expensive course to understand and be able to effectively use deeper components of the program.

Pros

This software has everything that I need to run my remodeling business. I can track all my clients for billing.

Cons

It takes a little bit to get used to. I wish some of funnels where a little easier to navigate but I know some of it is just a learning curve

Pros

This software is very easy to use. Reports are easy to adjust to fit individual situations. Data entry is easy. Minimal effort switching back and forth between companies.

Cons

While this software is ideal for small to medium sized companies, it wouldn't be so good for larger companies.

If you are looking for a stable, easy to use and cost efficient accounting system, you can't go wrong. Been using their products since they release Quicken. I have not been disappointed yet. I have installed and trained multiple specialties attached to QuickBooks Pro and it has made work more efficient.

Pros

They have continually made a quality accounting system that provides many specialty interfaces. The system has a very easy and logical streamline. Easy to correct entries. Support is very helpful when you do need help.

Cons

Choosing which version option, since they are all good. They have Desktop, Online, Single user and Multiuser.

Pros

It is very comprehensive in the detail you can input and the flexibility that you can manipulate the details to provide insight into your business.

Cons

It can be overwhelming and difficult to remember how to use all the features and it can be cumbersome trying to figure it out.

While Quickbooks Pro is an affordable solution for the small business owner, and moderately easy to use, requiring very little accounting knowledge other than the basics, the customer service/technical support is very generic and basic, and I have found it to have compatibility issues with other applications, at time rendering it completely disabled. Correcting this issue became very costly, on top of the already annual pricey updates required to keep it current. While it's not as costly overall as some of the other accounting software packages, some of these "hidden" costs bulk up the overall cost.

Pros

Moderately easy to use
Requires minimal accounting knowledge to use
Good for small business
Payroll services
Easy to Customize
Affordable

Cons

Customer service/technical support
Compatibility issues
Pricey annual updates to keep it current

I look forward to upgrading next year to the online version and hope it will allow a more time saving feature for pulling transactions from scanned documents.

Pros

I have setup 2 companies in Quickbooks over the past 2 years and it allows for easy setup with an appealing appearance.

Cons

The apps to integrate better features into Quickbooks come at a high price and manual entry of statements is time consuming.

Pros

ease of transactions and reporting. ease of installing, implementing and training clients. teaches customers accounting

Cons

would like to see more integration features to avoid double entry. Only quickbooks online has that feature..

I lost my bitcoin wallet again, and using this software to. Balance books based on bitcoin currency, maybe tough to do.

Pros

QuickBooks is great for accounting both personal and business. I am writing this review to help others.

Cons

The interface should be more touch friendly, updated for a new Virtual age, more features. The software should allow for “sharing” of account information.

highly recommend Quickbooks Pro

Pros

extensive selection of parameters for the hundreds of reports you're able to generate, the payroll program is the best especially if you handle tips. new operating systems are priced well but you can use one for two years without having to upgrade

Cons

yearly subscription has gone up quite a bit BUT they keep you completely current on all payroll tax changes, updates, etc.
