"Simple and easy to use"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

QuickBook payroll is extremely intuitive and simple to use. It makes completing our semi-monthly salary employees as well as hourly payroll easy to enter and process. I would recommend QuickBooks payroll to anyone with a small to medium sized business. QuickBooks makes it easy and convenient to submit tax payments as well. The time tracking and PTO tracking options are great as well. It makes it easy to keep track of all out employee information as well. I am able to set up an new employee including their banking information for direct deposits in the matter of minutes. When using a payroll company, it takes several days to verify all the information and there is almost always mistakes made. When using QuickBooks I can enter in all the info manually and it doesn't take any time at all.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

When mistakes are made there are sometimes several steps involved to correct them, other than that, that is the only thing that I dislike.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

When using payroll via QuickBooks, it saves time and money within a business. I don't need to rely on someone else to handle the payroll and I am able to complete it easily and with out any issues. Also, QuickBooks payroll is compatible with Excel and its is easy to upload payroll information from Excel documents.

"Quickbooks is the old standby for in house bookkeeping"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

I was born and raised on Quickbooks so I don't have any experience using any other programs but I like the reports in Quickbooks. It is fairly easy to learn and a good standard in house book keeping program.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

It's not cloud based automatically. For the price, you should have an option for more than a trial cloud based program.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

IN house accounting and book keeping. Sales reports. Register tracking. We prefer to do our own in house book keeping and then send the reconciled statements and reports to the accountant for our taxes. For one, it forces us to be very aware of our bottom line and sales. It also gives us a way to monitor our sales for tax purposes so we aren't too surprised when the tax bill comes.

"Kept this Math Neophyte on Budget"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Simple, efficient and professional billing. I utilized QuickBooks to create invoices for clients and manage my company's finances when I was launching my social consultancy (The Lost Jacket) in Boston. It added a level of professionalism to my billing and helped me legitimize my company in some respects.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Not much. It provided exactly what I needed for my purposes of billing and invoicing clients and added a level of mathematical flourish that I desperately needed for my business. As an English major I felt right at home with this tool.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Budgeting, invoicing and efficient billing all made this tool a stellar addition to my entrepreneurial arsenal.

"Quickbooks is great for small businesses."
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

I really like Quickbooks. It provides a lot of features for Small Businesses and there is a lot of support with a very active community. I have helped over 50 business with installing or cleaning up their QuickBooks. The tool is very powerful.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

A lot of businesses do not understand the full power of Quickbooks. A challenge I see is that Accountants set it up to get their clients tax returns processed easily, but do not focus on the actionable management reporting capabilities that QuickBooks offers.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is more than an accounting package. If set up right, the solution can provide actionable management reporting and I like the Links with a variety of third party solutions to help meet industry focused needs.

"Quickbooks review"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

I like that this accounting program is for the accountant AND non-accountant especially. It is forms generated where most of the debit and credit work is done behind the scenes. Non-accountants don't have to feel overwhelmed at using what aspects of the program they need. For example, a CEO could easily learn to print reports.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Accountants can find it limiting due to wanting to work with journals and ledgers. However, it just takes getting used to the forms aspect of the software. Most capabilities are still there.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

I give small businesses and even some individuals organization of their finances. They don't need complex accounting packages. I am solving problems in seeing what is profitable in their business and what are the issues. Organization of finances can be a simple task, and the benefits are far-reaching.

"Quickbooks is the right program to use for small business accounting and tax documentation. "
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Quickbooks allows a non accountant business owner to control their finances and bookkeeping with some basic training and occasional assistance.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Quickbooks gets more expensive each year and can have too many features and learning curve for the very small or part time business owner.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quickbooks self service payroll can avoid expensive cumbersome payroll services and Quickbooks accounting can lower annual tax filing and tax liability costs by allowing business owners to be involved in the small business bookkeeping process. Business owners can get good feedback about financial performance available with an open easy to modify database with ease of use by non accountants.

"Suitable for a wide range of businesses"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

QuickBooks is very flexile and forgiving, so even if you initially enter something incorrectly, if can be amended and added to. An audit trail shows these changes so you can review whether staff need t be more careful, or require more training, or the data they are given needs to be more accurate and complete. The reporting is the other strength with cross year reporting as wel as drill down and easy customisation.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

At present the On-Line version is not as feature rich and the Pro, Premier and Plus versions all begin with P which can lead to confusion.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Business owners can start to understand the figures and link them to business performance. With the drill down, they can see what their costs are even down to per supplier. For any business with multiple outlets, the classess allow profitability by outlet to be reviewed and coss corrected as needed.

"QuickBooks and Stampli - Match Made in Heaven!"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Easy to track bills, credit card charges and reconcile credit cards. Having the ability to set up different reports to easily see what needs to be paid when is amazingly helpful as a member of our AP department. We can pay bills directly from the report or schedule checks to be printed.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Sometimes it is a little difficult to fix things when something comes through Stampli to the wrong vendor. However once I learned how to change them, it is a little bit of a process but doable.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

QuickBooks is helping to pay bills on time and know what we have upcoming to pay. We have made a report to see each vendor, bill due date, and total amount. Being able to export to Excel makes it easy to highlight and share through the company what checks need to be printed each weekend to mail on Mondays and stay on top of our bills.
