Executive Assistant
5.0

Kira E.: Hi, my name's Kira. I'm an executive assistant at North40 Capital LLC, and I rate QuickBooks Online a five out of five. North40 Capital went ahead and looked at Sage 50 and Xero as other accounting and program options. However, they had limited features, and the price didn't match up to what QuickBooks Online could offer for us. We chose QuickBooks online due to its reputation and features. The fact that we can job cost for our different properties that we own, as well as having full-fledged accounting, is great. We can also integrate with our payroll system, which is another great feature for us. QuickBooks Online was very easy to integrate with. QuickBooks Online has the feature of allowing your accountant to be invited to your account, allowing seamless integration. We were up within a week after getting our account to process our accounting. If you're thinking of needing a great accounting program that is simple and easy to use for a non-accounting brain but also have full-fledged accounting process if you are looking for inviting your accountant, QuickBooks Online is your way to go. It's a cloud-based program that has multiple users being able to have access to it at different locations, as well as it has full features of job costing, payroll, profitability reports, and more.
