What our customer's say!

"There is a reason the pro's use this..", Because they are pro's in their field. If you hire an outside bookkeeper or accountant, you will find that most of them use QuickBooks. The complaints that I am reading are from business owners who truly believe that buying a piece of software is going to educate them and they will (poof) become good accountants or bookkeepers !!
The ability to use a piece of software DOES NOT make you a bookkeeper or accountant, that is only achieved with education OR good on-the-job training and experience !!



"Tax Table Subscription is expensive.", I haven't had any significant problems with the software and it realitivly simple to use, but the tax table update subscribtion is $199.00 per year!

"Excellent Software for Accountants", Excellent software for Accountants. It is excellent for establishing and managing accounts.

"Pocket Quickbook", Quickbook is really a fanastic product although there is much disapprovment on the review site. Quickbook is great, just that Quickbook is trying too hard to squeeze evey cents from the existing customer with their distractive advert. Whatever, Quickbook is one of the best buget accounting software in the market. If you use it enough, you may find something missing in Quickbook. Its usefulness is limited to the office. Now you can extend your Quickbook to PDA such as PocketPC.

If you are in a retail business, Pocket Quickbook enables you enter bill and receive your inventory. You no longer confined to your desktop to use Quickbook.

"Improved over 2002 version", For the most part, there has been some negative sentiment and reviews from users regarding their purchases of Quickbooks Pro 2004. It was enough to concern me to think whether I should purchase the program or not. Those reviews were not regarding installation problems or conflicts on their computers. They were complaints regarding Intuit designing the newer programs with traps in the program that would require you to purchase additional services. It is true that there are fees for running payroll annually but I don't use it so no $$$ lost. Actually there are two problems I have come across. The first: when making payments, an icon appears right alongside your payment that wants you to order checks from Intuit. You cannot eliminate this option but have to dig through help and look in a very hidden location to place a proposed check number when you want to be reminded again. I put in 9999 so I probably won't hear from it for a long time. Of course many may find this reminder helpful. I suppose I will, but personally I become offended when I can't turn on or off the preferences. The second problem is in emailing forms and reports. This is another option my 2002 version did not have. The problem is that when you click on emailing the report, a quickbooks browser opens and takes you to an intuit site where you have to login and before things got worse, I disconnected. They should allow you to simply attach to outlook express if anything. What is a plus with this update version is that reports can be saved in pdf format (adobe acrobat) and you can manually email these attachments yourself. I like and have used this option!

This program is a very helpful tool in our real estate business where I can keep track and make reports of all properties. For those not familiar with the software, when you desire to enter an expense, a screen will appear that looks like a check. This check can either be printed on the intuit or third party checks or you can unclick "print" and write out your own check and just use this area to enter the expenses. You enter the payee, $$$, date and information in the lower section of the amount(s) from that same check that you want to enter into one or more categories or across many classes. For example, if I want to pay John the handiman $500 for work on properties, I can allocate $200 to "accounts" for electrical, $100 for painting and $200 for roofing, any accounts which you can personally set up. Further, if a portion of the payment is for another property address, I simply click on the appropriate property I have originally entered way back under "class" and separate the $$$ proportionately. Another column is available for entering the "job" so I can keep track of a specific project. Virtually every conceivable option is available for keeping proper track of expenses. When I deposit rent checks, I simply click on "make deposits" and enter the click on the tenant's name in the dropdown list and allocate the payment to the "class" or property. Again easy to keep complete track of expense and income. At the end of the year, I email the backup program to our accountant and he finshes the tax forms. Bank account balances can be kept and basis for properties for the long term.

Of course, if you are using this program for the first time, you enter a lot of information on various introductory screens to customize the program for your type of business.

As far as installation, I already had Quickbooks Pro 2002 installed. The instructions say to install right over top of the old program so the old information can be converted over. Screens appear that comfortable tell you what is going to happen. I would recommend backing everything up prior to upgrading. All went well.

I am very satisfied with the program. I was reluctant to try Peachtree since they say you can't keep more than 2 years of information readily open to see or modify prior to archiving (there seems to be no limit here unless your backup file gets too big- I'm at 600kb and climbing right now). I will give this rating 4 stars since I am satisfied with the program. If there would be more useful and exciting changes, I would have given it a perfect rating. Feel comfortable in purchasing this program.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"It all depends on where you're coming from.", If you don't mind being manipulated and having Intuit suck money out of your business on a long term basis, Quickbooks is worth considering. Also, Quickbooks is a standard double entry accounting system. If you have a small business and you know little or nothing about accounting, you're probably better off hiring an external bookkeeping, payroll, and/or accounting service. It might even be less expensive, and certainly less time consuming, in the long run.

"Greedy Intuit will milk you for every penny!", If you use the Payroll Tax service, BEWARE: Just a few years ago it was $50 annually to subscribe to the payroll tax service. In 1999 it went up to $79. Then in 2001 it doubled to $149. In 2003 it went to $169 and in 2004 they have just announced they are raising it to $199 annually. Each time they remind you that "it's still a great value!" (Peachtree plays this same game). On top of that, they retire ("sunset") old versions every 2 to 3 years. So expect to buy Quickbooks 4-5 times over the next 10 years. They will continue to play this game until customers drop off in droves and/or someone steps up with a better offer.

Update 2007: Payroll Tax Service is now at $350!

"Useless", QB 2004 is useless for a non-accountant. It seems to be designed to sell add-on services, not perform a function. The idea that any reasonably experienced business person can not, without professional assistance, use this program is a indicative of just what a joke it is. A complete cottage industry has grown up around providing help with QB. That should have been my 1st warning not to buy this program. The fees charged by QB should have been the 2nd warning that this is not a program for the general user.

I'll go back to pen and paper beforre I pay QB for support of a program for which I have already paid them. (...)

"Great Product!!", I have been using Quickbooks for the past three years. This new version is awesome, Intuit just keeps getting better and better. I use this program for my business, personal, and my clients. I would recommend this to any and everyone!!!

"Do yourself a favor and don't buy it.", I'm make this quick. I'm a longtime PC user -- over twenty years experience with all manner of business and web applications. Even in this latest version, the Quickbooks interface absolutely sucks. One of the most non-intuitive, poorly designed business applications I've ever seen. The mere fact that you need a certified Quickbooks advisor to help you use it properly should give you a clue. How can Quicken be so good and Quickbooks such a woeful dog? I'm very unhappy with it, an opinion I've held for over eight years of exposure to this program. What are the alternatives? Frankly, I don't know. If you have an idea, I'm all ears. I'd pay double or triple the price of QB to get something good. Thanks for listening.
