QuickBooks Online Advanced Reviews & Product Details

Fairly easy to use. Lots of assistance available. Allows you to have multiple areas open at once for ease of getting from one area to another Works with classes and locations to split your transactions further Batch entry of bills and expenses Bank connection which makes it easier to do bank reconcilations Custom Reports I dont use the payroll feature as we have a PEO. Allows you to track inventory. Like being able to view recent transactions and logs to check when a transaction was entered if entered incorrectly to go back and make any adjustment. Backs up regularly so easy to retrieve a back up if their are errors with transactions.

Moving from desktop version was time consuming and needed a lot of manual journal adjustment. Some areas could do with being easier to use and assistance with moving over was not very knowledgeable from quickbooks employees.

Quickly entering multiple bills and expenses with the batch feature speeds up time. Bank reconciliations don't take as long with being able to upload transactions directly from the bank Custom reports make it easier to see how different areas of the business. Using locations and classes to further split areas. Inventory control, adjusting inventory transaction log and backups make it easier to revert back if you make a mistake Support and feedback option great so you can easily request support and provide feedback on any features you may wish to add.

I love that even if you do not have ANY formal training of knowledge in the accounting field this program is still easy to learn and use. The best part is that if you need help with anything there are several options to fit your needs. You can chat with a rep, hold to speak to one, or have them call you back. They also can remotely access your computer so they can see what you are doing, identify the problem and guide you through a solution.

As with all things in life , continuous improvement is a must. With that being said QuickBooks could improve the process for entering inventory. At the current moment you have to enter each item separately and click several buttons on different screens. When entering large quantities of inventory this is time consuming. It would be awesome if you could enter many at once. Another awesome feature would be to import vendor invoices to QuickBooks as it can be time consuming entering high volume of invoices for one particular vendor.

We are able to easily see the AR and AP for our company helping us be more efficiently and have better control of our cash follow.

Entering and tracking inventory and all financials was made as easy as it could be for an accounting novice like myself. We didn't realize the business was going to grow so quickly and started keeping track of sales and inventory on spreadsheets. We tried a less expensive software but it didn't provide all of the features that we needed and thankfully we learned this before our business became even more complex.

The ACH fees are high and the customization of invoices and packing slips are limited.

There are many advantages: complexity of product inventory has become easier to navigate and track from the time of purchase to the sale; we can run reports on just about anything.

Ease of Payroll. Access anywhere, anytime. Easy to train users.

Needs to be more robust for manufacturing, distilleries, construction and for beverage retail. Does not integrate well with Square, SOS Inventory, or Whiskey Systems. There isn't a lot of info on upgrades that have happened or notice about associated tutorials. I've had to dig for those myself.

Solves for most financial needs. Recent integration with TSheets is great.

I love the ability to track and pay bills, invoices, reconciling our organization's credit cards. The user friendliness is the greatest benefit of this software.

The price point per month is a little high for us right now.

I love the ability to send out automatic recurring invoices.

The user interface is simple and easy, and the reporting capabilities are powerful.

There is not anything I can think of that I dislike

Bookkeeping and accounting for small non-profit. Financial reporting, including budget vs actuals reports.

Ease of use, and a lot of additional features to help track accounting data.

Still need more time to learn all of the features to be able to take full advantage of the software.

Quick and fast financial reports with projections. Helps us make informed business decisions.

We had two primary reasons for making the switch - integration with our primary 'association management system' and on-line access for board members to advance transparency. The integration with our AMS was easy to set up (as far as the QBO side goes) and it working as expected. We moved to QBO from QB Desktop, and the integration is MUCH better with ABO than desktop in terms of amount of detail and accuracy in activity pulling into proper accounts. Having custom user roles for board members to provide oversight wasn't possible with desktop.

So far there isn't anything to dislike that isn't just a part of the learning curve with getting used to any new software system.

As mentioned above, the improved integration and transparency for board oversight have been solved. QBO's integration with Tallie, Tsheets, etc are also saving us a lot of time and effort... as hoped.

Robust features satisfy our business needs

There are a couple of limitations for larger/more complex companies (ex. consolidations)

Faster and more accurate bank reconciliation info, ability to integrate with other applications, customized and saved reports are a time saver

Love the cloud based system. QBO is easy to use.

Wish the Budget versus Actual reporting had a better format.

Our reporting is more robust now.
