Prateek G
Head of Developer Relations
5.0

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.
