Pros
It used to be so great if you needed help you just called in and someone would know the answer and either have you fix it or they would get in your computer and do it. It was a fantastic service.
I highly recommend QB, especially if you have some accounting knowledge it is super easy to use and very accurate and reliable.
The program itself is excellent as seen from its popularity. My greatest need has been customer service technical support.
Cons
It's is also difficult to back up and change mistakes. At least I have a difficult time with that.).
The cost of this product is ridiculous, especially when compared with their other products.
The pressure to switch to the online version is ridiculous. They even removed the automatic foreign currency rate adjustments/updates in an attempt to force us to move to a new version.

Industry Standard for Accounting.

Reviewed a year ago

QuickBooks Desktop Pro offers one of the best user interface and experience with an easy to grasp learning curve. This makes it the primary software for training accounts for many institution in y home place.

Pros

Easy setup process even for non technical users to install is the number one reason QuickBooks Desktop Pro wins and the 30 Days trial version come in very handy.

Cons

Lack of Wholesale and Manufacturing modules with QuickBooks Desktop Pro means I cant have BOM (Bill of Material) and this is quit limiting as it need an entirely new installation and license for its advance version that is QuickBooks Enterprise.

Quickbooks

Reviewed 11 days ago

Quickbooks Desktop Pro has been very beneficial to the company overall other than something that do need to be ironed out within the program. It would be nice if one button can charge all customers at once that have a balance due instead of having to charge each individual one.

Pros

I love how Quickbooks can be user friendly to other programs when syncing charges from one program to Quickbooks itself. It does help us a lot when we add a customer to our program and it automatically syncs with Quickbooks and then we can charge a customer when their balance is due.

Cons

It can be difficult to use as it has moments to where you it doesn't always sync charges. Like some kind of glitch it will do. It is constantly doing updates which can be frustrating as this causes my team not having the ability to log in until we call a CNR company.

Customer Service is USELESS

Reviewed 4 years ago

The program is fine but my overall customer service experience is horrendous. At no time have I called to resolve an issue and actually had someone on the phone with enough knowledge ( or any knowledge of the product at all ) to help me through my issue. I usually wind up using trial and error to figure it out on my own.

Pros

The basic functions are very easy to use. For the most part it is a good book keeping program. Do Not try to do anything that is NOT BASIC.

Cons

If you need to do something a little more advanced than normal it is very difficult to figure out how to do it and customer service is USELESS! The support team has never used the product and it shows every time I call.

Great system once you get past the learning curve.

Reviewed 4 months ago

I really like Quickbooks Desktop Pro. It took some time for me to learn the ins and outs of the program. However, now I can do everything our small nonprofit needs to do financially.

Pros

I like that I can do everything my small nonprofit needs to do financially from daily finances to monthly taxes.

Cons

The learning curve can be tough even for a professional.

QuickBooks Desktop Pro

Reviewed 11 days ago
Pros

QuickBooks is an essential part of running our business, and we have been mostly pleased with out experience. It is easy to use and gives us the information needed. It is also extremely helpful in calculating taxes and payroll info.

Cons

Customer Service has been a bit of a challenge with QuickBooks. They have wonderful help articles, but talking to a person who knows how to solve the problem you're facing is difficult. Many of their customer service people are only knowledgeable about certain areas in QuickBooks and cannot help with other issues.
