CPA and Accounting Firms. Small to Mid Size Business for Full Accounting.
QuickBooks Desktop caters to businesses across multiple industries.
It's easy to learn and the customer support has been terrific. We definitely recommend it.
The problem is usually a staff member of ours, clicking a key that the software is unhappy with, but, never seems to be a problem for their trouble shooters.
It has been a great experience for more than 20 years using Xpert. The professionals are incredible devoted to customers, they take their needs very seriously.
The payroll function was very cumbersome and difficult, and there were other restrictions on the journal entry and posting functions that were annoying.
Great product been using it for over 20 years customer support is the best of any company out there.
Some of the accountants are not CPAs and it makes you worried a little bit.
Great for our small CPA firm. We were using a very outdated Peachtree program and the staff at Micronetics made the transition super east.
If you encounter a problem, they come into your computer and fix it.
Another huge benefit is the ability to export data to Excel for custom reporting. Another perk is the training and support available - well worth the small monthly fee to take advantage of it.
Sometimes, as with any software, Quickbooks can have problems and terminates at the worst possible time.
The Professional version for three. I love how I can help my small but busy non profit seamlessly keep track of hundreds of families in our before and after school care program.
We have used this company for more than 20 years, now they are a pay to use company. I HATE THIS COMPANY, it's all about the money now.
I love that I don’t have to outsource simple things like payroll, expense reporting, preparation for taxtime, and more. I have always found the customer service to be very helpful and understanding.
Customer service is dismal. I was unable to have them assist me in a time critical event.
I feel like I've only scratched the surface of what this program can do and I'm super pleased with it. The customization options of the reports has been extremely helpful as well.
My only complaint has been that when you are couple of releases behind you can no longer direct email invoices to a client.
Kaity H.: Hi, I'm Kaity. I'm the general manager at a small company, we have less than 15 employees, and I give QuickBooks Desktop a five. We use QuickBooks Desktop for invoicing, billing, keeping track of the bills we owe everybody else. Anything that has to do with money at our company, that's what we use QuickBooks for. Keeping track of our bank accounts, that's really important. So we use it for a lot of things. I like that QuickBooks Desktop is easy to use. It's very clear. It has all the buttons. "I want to do billing." Oh, you click on the billing button. "I need to check on a customer." There's the customer button. It's very straightforward. "We need a report." There's a reports list. So it's very straightforward to use. It would be nice if QuickBooks Desktop could be linked to more specific softwares. I know we are a landscape company, so we use certain landscapes. I'm sure electricians and plumbers, they have all different softwares, and if you could link those softwares to QuickBooks, I think that would be awesome. So maybe expand who they partner with to use everybody's different softwares that they need to run their specific companies.
