What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

It has a wide range of tools people can use. The financial statements are detailed and could be tailored to suit the business you are assesing. The automation system sumplifies eveything and saves people time and cost. The work is shared among the team members in the cloud and is stored securely for everybody to collaborate and keep documents confidential/secure. When taking into account all thos features, one can conclude that the platform gives you more for your money than other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

It's more challenging than the normal version especially if somebody is not an accountant or has a background in accounting. There to many paid add-ins and you do not get enough features that are complementary and supposed to be complementary like backup which is complementary in Microsoft Office. The service from the team is not very consistent. The software is also not up to date compared to it's counterparts in other words the company is not adapting to the features in it's industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is QuickBooks Desktop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Simple mundane tasks wihtin bookeeping, tax , payroll, reporting, and inventory which could be automated. I say simple because some of those fields have complex tasks which need a qualified staff to do however some do not and could be done using the software. The software also has a programme which allows people to access everything offline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

I have used Quickbooks for years and the desktop version is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Their push to move to online and triple increase in prices have made them impossible to work with. I have spent more than 12 hours with them chatting online and on the phone and the issue is still not resolved. Their support system is anitiquated and although the reps are friendly, they cannot solve a simple issue of an email address change. I have put in over 10 cases with them, on the same issue, and the automated response says it is complete. It still isn't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
