What our customer's say!

"Good product", Pros:
- Easy inventory management
- Easy invoicing and tracking of sales
- Automatically updates the accounting with revenues and expenses if you set it up correctly (I'm still figuring this out)
- Nice customization feature for the look and layout of printed invoices and sales receipts.
- Shipping Manager - easy printing of shipping labels
- Email invoice from within Quickbooks.

Cons:
- The application is not as stable as I would expect. Sometimes it hangs. There are a few bugs that I can reproduce easily. You would think for a commercial application these would have been found in testing. Downloading and installing the latest update helped a lot as it fixed quite a few of these issues but not all of them.
- learning curve if you have never done accounting or bookkeeping before
- few customization features in terms of data. For example, for an inventory item you can only add 5 custom fields. If you have extra data that you want to keep track of for every item you cannot do it.
- No easy way to keep track of shipping/import costs for your inventory to have them counted as Cost of Goods Sold. There are workarounds but they are not ideal.
- No support for buying goods in different currency.


"QB Installation Problems", Installation on two computers running off a common server was very difficult. Each program has to be updated with new downloads and will not work together with different versions. Running off the server is counter intuitive as well. Then when we tired to do our payroll, we had to jump thru hoops to avoid buying the intuit service, a real pain.

"Review QuickBooks 2007 Contractor", I have used Quickbooks since 1999. It is a good product. It would have been more helpful if I had a better discription of the Contactor and Manufacture versions. It was hard to decide with I need at this time since we will be working on a government contract. What I don't like is that I still have to purchase the payroll updates for 200.00 a year. I would think that it could have been included with the first year.

"QuickBooks Premier Manufacturer and Wholesale Edition 2007", I am not an Accountant,I went from MYOB 8 years ago, to Peachtree Complete, (HATED IT!) to Quickbooks Pro 6 mos ago to know Premier for Manufacturing. The software is alot more user freindly than Peachtree, I was still doing "Garbage In, & Garbage Out" until I found Diane Margulies of D.G.M. Consulting, Inc. She is a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor. She has saved me thousands by correcting (YEARS) of bad entry in Peachtree & QuickBooks. My Accountant was floored. Diane can be reached at [...] or [...].

"Quickbooks for wholesale", Better than the last version, but still not perfect. And support for when their program goes screwey is an additional $200.
