"Customer support awful"
Product is ok, but if you have a problem then you are going to need to call support. No support item is free. We had a problem with migration and needed to call. You need to either get a service plan or pay a high one time fee. On top of the payment we had to wait several hours on hold to reach anyone. The support staff we encountered was only marginally helpful. In the end I just had to reinstall and start over from a back up (which could have been done for free). Only reason we are using this software is the cost to transfer and learn another product. If you are looking for new accounting software I recommend considering something else.

"Another Reason Why I HATE Accounting!!! (Rating: 2 out of 10- -1.5 stars )"
First and formost: I don't have the entire program. I have the trial version. I'm not sure how much that is modified from the actual version of this software, but I had to download it for my class.

Right away "Peachtree Accounting" gave me problems. First the installment, which took quite possibly the longest time ever (I think about 2 and a half hours). Second was the fact that once you start your program and enter the month and year that you want to start on, you can't go back and change it, unless you start your entire project over. For example: If you accidentally enter June 2005 in the part where you want to begin the program, and you ment June 2006, you're going to have a problem. And I pray for you if you journalized all your entries before you realized the problem (like I did...luckly I didn't have that many journal entries to do). One big problem is that this takes up a huge chunk of your hard drive space (the trial version is 388 megabites, I can't imagine what the CD will do). Also if you leave the program up and running with your internet explorer up at the same time and your computer goes into the screen saver. It will cause your system to run EXTREMELY slow. It took me 3 hours to get my computer back to normal.

Overall, I can't recommend this program to anyone. The trial version that I have is supposed to persuade people to purchase the program, but so far it has persuaded me to avoid software from this company. In fact I found no significance within this prgram at all. This is what happens when you go to college and have to take accounting classes because they are apart of your major. You have to download stuff like this. Avoid if possible.

Not that this matters, but the trial version allows you to open the program up to a total of 10 times, before you are forced to make a decision. But you'll probably end up uninstalling it by the 4th time you open it.

Peace!


"Very Disappointed"
I installed this product on my computer, and I cannot use it. I contacted the Peachtree software website, and they have not answered me. I then had to spend double what I paid for the Peachtree, and get another accounting software package. I will never order or use Peachtree again. Their customer support leaves a lot to be desired.
