Jennifer H.

Service Billing Administrator

“QuickBooks Online is the central Financial Reporting and Invoicing program that I use in my Iron Door making company - it has been a great milestone with it.”
CM

Christin M.

Business Owner

Cons

“Cannot add credit card fees directly to the invoice at time of customer payment.”
AZ

Alfred Z.

Forensic Accountant

“I can't think of anything that was difficult or frustrating.”
EL

Emily L.

Paralegal

“User interface is not intuitive and is hard to use for a non-accountant. ”
TH

Tom H.

CFO

Cons

“Limitations with check printing: can’t customize templates or account info, must buy pre-printed checks, which adds cost, risk of errors, and paper waste.”
VB

Vanessa B.

Bookkeeper

“The pricing for add-ons and the massive jumps in cost between user tiers (e.g., $115 for 5 users vs. $275 for 25) is frustrating for scaling businesses. And honestly, it's super frustrating to know that they have features that I just don't know how to use, and likely need, but the free 'tutorials' are so basic—I feel like it's a terrible customer satisfaction approach to charge for classes to get the complete picture when I've been a subscriber for nearly 10 years.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Jill R.

Owner

“I've asked about getting some of those reports but customer support says they don't have it. As someone that knows the accounting side of things the product can be frustrating to use because they block certain features or accounting procedures to try and help people not mess up their books.”
