"So easy to use, definitely recommend."
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Love that this is easy to use. I learned a few different bookkeeping softwares and definitely this one is the best one. The reports are easy to pull together and there are many of them as well.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

How some things are extra for example the payroll module, or payments via credit card as well. We have explored these options but, they are costly so we just stick without.

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

Easy to keep track of all bookkeeping weather its receipts, payments, bills, etc its saved lots of time and everything is just so much more organized.

"Tax Time no worries"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

We have over 50 employees between the church and the preschool. Before Covid-19 we had university part time employees and a lot of turnover. QuickBooks is such a wonderful software for keeping tax information up to date and very dependable The quarterly and annual tax filing is so simplified and accurate. Payroll every two weeks is easy and QuickBooks stays on top of the updates from the government

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

There isn't much I don't like about this software. There was a time when I hated it because if I had a question I was on hold forever to reach help. I could reach them via chat and sometime they could help me; but they could not remote like when you have a live phone conversation but the wait to reach them was horrible. However, they now have it set up where you request them to call you. That way you can work on other things until they called you. One thing that is aggravating some time is how long staff would take to "figure out the problem" as it seemed they were going through books to find an answer; however, they seem better trained now and especially when they access remote with your computer seem to be very knowledgeable. I guess my like and dislike seem to meld into I am very happy with this software.

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

Right now I am not having any problems. In the past I needed assistance when I googled and could not figure out how to fix a problem. For instance, just yesterday a check "bounced" and I needed to enter the bank fee plus deduct the deposited amount from my bank account. I googled and followed QB's instructions and all was solved. Other times it has been having them help me remotely, like when I accidentally messed up payroll. Too much to give in detail but they knew exactly how to "delete" the payroll without harming my tax payments and then redo the payroll. Solved. I would have not had the confidence on my own to do that because I was worried how it would affect the taxes, but they knew it would not. Real relief!

"Reliable and Easy to use!"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Having worked in accounting/bookkeeping for several years, I find the desktop version much more user-friendly than QBO. It's easy to navigate and the "help" section is actually helpful! My favorite feature for manual processing is the batch transaction entry option.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

I wish QBD was portable like QBO is. That's really all I dislike about it.

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

Desktop Pro allows us to work easily with all our clients extremely well & print reports with ease. Seeing "where you are" in the process from the Accountant Center is critical and easy to do.

"QuickBooks Desktop Pro Review"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

QuickBooks Enterprise Desktop Pro makes it relatively easy to keep track of business expenses and revenue.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

I don't like that payments from Intuit are automatically processed and you can't initially note the date when the payments are deposited in my bank account. Have to go in and amend the date, including the dates associated with the fees that Intuit Payments charges. This becomes more complicated when you have lots of payments.

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

Enables our company to accurately track expenses and revenues and do financial reporting. The benefits we realize over manually tracking this information is that it saves us time that we can use to generate revenues or develop new business.

"Bookkeeping Made Simple"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Manual bookkeeping used to be a full time job even in a firm as small as ours. With Quickbooks it is a part time job that frees me up to pursue other aspects of the business such as sales and customer relations. There are no more worries about mathematical errors since Quickbooks does the work for me. Also, filing taxes and reports are taken care of and are accurate.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

There is nothing I dislike about Quickbooks software. It has made my job easier and is accurate. Some of the functions are not applicable to my company so if I ever need to access irregular reports I sometimes have difficulty figure out where to go. The help function always walks me through these issues. So, though I may sometimes need to apply more time to a task when I am unfamiliar with it, in the end Quickbooks does help me finish.

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

The biggest benefit is the government tax filings and year end wrap ups. Quickbooks solves the problem of having to compile these reports and file with accuracy. Having the W-2's and year end filings taken care of assures me of proper and timely filings. My biggest benefit has been saving time with bookkeeping. Quickbooks has freed me up to be more involved in product development and sales.

"Does what most business need to manage finance"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

There is a reason it is the preferred business accounting software for small business. It is comprehensive, ease to use and learn, contains excellent reporting tools across a broad spectrum of topics, the Corporate Snapshot is a useful tool for gauging the financial health of ones business. The filtering capabilities allows reports to be tailored to meet business and personal reporting needs.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Customer Support could use improvement, as it very much depends on the ability of the resource on the other end. Generally speaking, this is an area that could use improvement - as it is not nearly as helpful as many other software providers - especially given it's dominance in the market.

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

Financial Accounting, Financial Performance Tracking, AR and Invoice Reconciliation, Monthly P&L, Tax Accounting, Financial Reporting and Dashboards

"Industry Standard"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

QB desktop is definitely an industry standard. Being able to access client accounts and download information directly makes this smooth and easy sailing. Having clients themselves, or previous accountants using it as well makes it easy as well. Reports clear and lots of important different options such as: billing, reoccurring payments etc - simply the best.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

advertising seems excessive, would like to opt out of receiving repeated info on services I do not need or want

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

Easy input especially via downloads, enables us to complete monthly P&L's for clients quickly and move on to next tasks
