Aimed at small businesses all around the world. Available in 15 languages.
Editions dedicated to contractor, manufacturing and wholesale, nonprofit, retail, and more.
The ease of use, the double entry accounting, and the different functions, reports, and tools are excellent. The tools for different currency accounts are excellent for our international business.
That makes sharing the data a bit more cumbersome than it would be otherwise. The worst thing is that it's hard to find bookkeepers, at least in the US, that are familiar with it.
This application is feature rich for a software product that is opensource and free. It is great for personal and small businesses.
We invoice between departments, and we were doing it on a spreadsheet, which was not optimal as sometimes mistakes were made.
For those who are searching for a free accounting software for their individual or small business needs, GNUCash is perhaps the best given the robust features incorporated and a large community base.
Maybe it is not so complete and somebody could miss some features.
It uses double entry bookkeeping to keep track of income and expenses. Does a good job tracking investments and can calculate capital gains based on lots bought/sold for better accuracy.
Some questions are difficult to find answers in the documentation.
There are a ton of add ons and apps that the software supports. From what I have seen of other budgeting software this one has the best use interface and is the most comprehensive.
Constant charges to maintain all of the products features. Most charges are unclear and come as a surprise charge on your credit card.
And the best of all is you are actually learning more when using the QuickBooks software it's the best.
Nothing really major is wrong but just a slight problem with the customer service, had a problem deleting my previous account and was told that they cannot delete it.
Financial reporting to me and my team is easy and comfortable by Quickbooks Desktop software. Payment processing is good with easy steps and with clear calculation.
Difficult to explore through the various bundles. Was charged 20$ and needed to experience a cycle where they input .01 into my record - which was redundant.
QuickBooks is an excellent accounting solution for small businesses because it is simple to use and provides excellent support. It has excellent technical support, documentation, and online help.
Software itself its terrible to use. When paying a contractor I have the option to select which account to pay them out of.
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Prateek. I am head of the marketing for customjewelry.com. We are a startup and a small team of 15 people distributed remotely. I give QuickBooks Online Enterprise five out of five. Before QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise version, we were using very DIY products, from spreadsheets to a payroll like ADP to pay our contractors. To keep expenses, we would use our credit card tool from Brex. But everything was very scattered since all of the team members are remote, and also global. The reason we chose QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise is because of the ease of use. And just with a quick integration, we were able to all get on board on a single, so where I can log in in real-time and see which contractor has filed their expenses, run payroll, keep track of expenses and everything, all in one place. Oh, getting started with QuickBooks Enterprise was very easy. Actually, more easy than I thought it would be. With all the integrations with the banks, the existing softwares, the tools that we were already using for business, they were very seamless, and we did not have to get any outside help. We were able to do it ourselves in less than a day. I would recommend QuickBooks Enterprise if you are looking for a accounting software or bookkeeping software for your company. Number one, for the ease of use. Number two, for the seamless integrations. Number three is for having a very clear overview of your business all in the same page that is very easy to use.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
