The most helpful feature of QuickBooks Desktop Pro is that it is very flexible. It is easy to configure invoicing, banking, expenses, employees, reports and taxes in QuickBooks. However, the most appreciable quality of QuickBooks is that, unlike other ERPs, it is very easy to implement. Maintaining QuickBooks is easy and doesn't require a dedicated support team. One best thing about QuickBooks Desktop Pro is that it is moderately priced, and its pricing plans suit startups and small-sized enterprises. To get such a robust accounting engine at that price point is impossible. Compared to its competitors, QuickBooks offer better accounting reports, product support, and system stability.
The one thing that QuickBooks finds challenging to handle is the high volume of master data. QuickBooks works perfectly with fewer suppliers, customers and transactional data. While QuickBooks realise most bookkeeping features, it doesn't offer many third-party integration opportunities. One scope for improvement in QuickBooks is that it can provide workflow customisations.

Their subscription model is ridiculous and now a cash grab. I understand if you want to do it for online products but you're essentially taking desktop software without all the features and adding crippleware.
I am accounting for my non-profit organization. It is a great product and I have used the software (in many different versions) for over 18 years. I have also taught courses on QuickBooks as well.
