Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • The cost is very affordable compared to other products. The customer service and technical support are outstanding.
  • I enjoyed the fact that it was user friendly. I enjoyed the affordable monthly fees based of organization size.
  • Especially pricing and quality, also the vendor's after service is very nice so I think we are very satisfied with this product.
  • Cons

  • I struggled to get a functional income statement by fund. Also, tracking purposes for audits, it didn't really track unrestricted, temp restricted, or perm restricted very well.
  • I hate that I have reconnect my bank account on a monthly basis.
  • I also find reporting to be a bit confusing. It is not intuitive...it sometimes takes several steps (that are not obvious) to get the report I need.

  • Pros

  • If you run a small business or are self-employed, this is great to have. If you're like me and not great with spreadsheets, then this is what you need.
  • I benefited from him and gained some experiences from him in my field and I liked it in ease of work reports.
  • I would recommend it for those who want a simple and effective way to keep records clean and send invoices to clients. Customer support is amazing.
  • Cons

  • Reconciling is miserable. I could go on and on, but I hate to relive the QB years where I felt inept and incapable of running the backside of our business.
  • The only problem with Virtual programs is the internet delays and the problems with making sure you can sync everything if two people have been working on it.
  • I HATE that I cannot simply download my QBO data into TurboTax. It makes no sense at all that I can't download Intuit data to another Intuit product.
