I love they have so many options and ways of showing users to add transactions.

Pros

Extremely easy to use. As all of intuit's products, Self-Employed guides you through the uses. Self-Employed is so accurate and easy to use.

Cons

I don't have a con about this one. It's saved me so much on my taxes. I'm blown away on how intuitiveness.

### "So helpful for full-time artist"

February 9, 2021

4.0

So far so good, it will take some getting used to as I am new to bookkeeping.

Pros

Love how it shows you your profit margins and it allows you to categorize your spending through your bank account.

Cons

How you have to pay for the online capability. I can't integrate my shopify account with it easily.

### "Do not buy this"

January 29, 2018

1.0

Do not buy.

Pros

ease of use and good interface and integrated with my bank account pretty well. Pretty intuitive too.

Cons

Filled with errors both from an accounting point of view and an accuracy point of view. Its the end of the tax year and my accountant found a £77,000 discrepancy between what was in the program and what my bank statements reported. You cannot have a 'tax year' different to the the one Intuit define and you cannot define categories. TOTALLY HOPELESS

### "Great for the small business owner"

January 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

Fairly intuitive, easy to use overall. Help file and support have been useful but really the interface itself does a good job telling you what does what

Cons

A few missing features (or I admit, features I don't know how to use): Duplicate transaction - I have weekly expenses that are exactly the same so I want to duplicate the expense (change date) to save time. I want to change the calendar to Sun-Sat, not Mon-Sun - it confuses my American brain

### "A Must-Have for Self-Employed"

August 20, 2019

5.0

Pros

Great software for invoicing, logging expenses and tracking finances. The software is very easy to use and can be used on mobile as well!

Cons

There is a slight delay on tracking purchases, this makes it harder for up-to-the-minute finance tracking.

### "Any small business owner should use this product!"

September 25, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love the integration options and being able to track miles and invoices from my phone. I run my contractor business on the side after I finish my day jobe each day, and this software makes it so easy!! Fantastic software for any independent contractor!

Cons

Absolutely none that I can think of, if you are a sole proprietor or even a small LLC, this product is for you!

### "Poor customer support"

January 17, 2022

1.0

Horrendous customer support.

Pros

Haven't been able to use it yet because no one can seem to help me fix my problem.

Cons

Terrible customer support. Evidently, Quickbooks Self-Employed is not staffed during the weekends, so you better hope you don't run into any problems like I did. Come Monday, staff at Quickbooks Self-Employed hung up on me 3 times after I'm trying to fix my problem have accessing my data.

### "Very efficient"

March 12, 2018

5.0

Pros

Very efficient! I love that it tracks my trips for me and links to my accounts so I don't miss anything. Since it links with Quickbooks, I am hopeful that taxes will be easy!

Cons

It wasn't obvious how to add a receipt instantly with one click. I figured it out, though. I'm also not sure whether to upload the itemized receipt or the final total receipt.

### "Easy to use"

October 3, 2018

4.0

Pros

This product makes it easy for you to track your mileage, organize your expenses, create invoices and help you with taxes. The mobile app really simplifies your day to day activities.

Cons

The software does not support state taxes and the invoices are also very limited compared to other quickbooks software.

### "Would Not Work With Bank"

June 20, 2018

4.0

Pros

Clean and smart, I had one of my client's, who is a CPA, rave about it so much, I decided to try it again after many years of having not used it. Many app integrations are available. Cloud based which is important for the person on the go.

Cons

It does not sync with my particular bank, however, I did place a request for Quickbooks to add it. Inventory tracking is actually done better with an app but if QuickBooks could sync with it, that would be good. Doesn't include payroll.

### "Makes my business run smoothly"

February 5, 2018

5.0

Pros

It allows me to sort bank transactions It tracks mileage and business expenses It transfers information to tax software to file

Cons

A bit intrusive when it comes to information gathering. I ask for bank account logins and it makes me wonder if privacy is ok

### "Just get regular desktop"

April 9, 2021

4.0

Overall QuickBooks is a great software to keep your numbers in line for a small business.

Pros

QuickBooks self employed is very similar to the regular desktop version it is easy to use for small business owners and organizes reports in a good manner.

Cons

QuickBooks self employed is just a slight variation of the basic desktop version with a new name it is better off to just go with QuickBooks desktop.

### "Quickbooks is amazing for self-employed people"

February 22, 2019

4.0

Pros

Quickbooks has been so helpful for me to keep track of my somewhat unstable income. I rely on this to get the best tax return I can get.

Cons

There is a small learning curve, but that might just be because software like this can be overwhelming for someone who isn't great with numbers.

### "Great product if you're willing to invest a bit of education time."

February 9, 2018

4.0

Please consider enabling help/support based upon user capability.

Pros

The ease of integrating with various bank feeds is extremely helpful. The occasional prompts are good as well.

Cons

It is not sufficiently intuitive and can use a 'new user' mode. The AI in QB could be used to provide substantially more guidance to the self-employed user.

### "Nice additive to have for self employee businesses "

May 14, 2018

3.0

Pros

We were given quickbooks self employee as a benefit to doing taxes. The features are nice to review your accounting matter and does a nice snapshot of the business. The mobile app provided the most use to save receipts on.

Cons

They is not much usage beside looking a report and snapshots of the company. If you have a system in place with your accountant this was a nice additional but did not give much additional value.

### "Finally decided to try Quickbooks Self-Emplyed for 2017"

December 11, 2017

5.0

I purchased the Quickbooks Self-Employed packaged with the Turbo Tax software. Looking forward to using the Turbo Tax section at tax time in 2018. So Far So Good!

Pros

I found it easy to get started, easy to set up, and fairly easy to link my bank accounts and credit cards to the automatic download and updates via internet. This was the main feature I was looking for and it has worked without a glitch, and easier & better than I had expected.

August 18, 2017

4.0

No

Pros

t's pretty basic, which is what I need. It has more features than I need, but I might need them in the future.

Cons

Some Clunky things about it--could be a bit more intuitive and the automatic field fill-ins could be better.

Cons

There were a lot of features that were too complicated and had a lot of issues setting up.
