Original review: Dec. 3, 2018 I've used QuickBooks Desktop for many years with no issues. I recommended it to my many other contacts. When my accountant suggested I switch to the Online version, I resisted at first but she insisted it would be great.

This is the worst decision I've made and I think I will need to fire my accountant if she thinks this program is so great. You can't see all the bills/invoices in one screen and where my bill pay process used to take about 10 minutes total it's now a 20 step hour long process! Anytime you hit the back button it automatically resets you back to the start so you have to sort and click through the bills each time. You also can't see the full screen. Every other page on the internet has a scroll bar at the bottom but not QuickBooks. You will not be able to see the full register side to side in one screen unless you purchase a new monitor.

I refuse to give in to the demands of QuickBooks Online to adjust how I have worked for years. I'm going back to desktop and firing my accountant. Original review: Nov. 21, 2018 I own a small business and purchased Intuit QuickBooks online on the advice of my accountant.

I had an old version which needed updating and we downloaded the 2017 version in 1/2018 for the 2017 tax season. I purchased the simplest version, which stated there would be a monthly charge of $7.00, which seemed fine to me.

The program was simpler than the old version and I was and am happy with the program. On 2/4/18, my credit card had the February $7.00 charge and on 2/24/2018 I was charged $49.99 for the online program. On 3/5/2018 and 4/3/2018 the monthly fees of $7.00 were charged.

But on both 5/3/2018 and 6/4/2018 The $7.00 fee, was doubled and I was charged $15.00 each. Original review: Nov. 20, 2018 I started a small business 3 years ago and wanted an accounting program that I could use from various locations.

Something that operated in the Cloud would be the way to go. I looked at the new QuickBooks online and thought it met the requirements. Getting set up was fairly straightforward, there were a few glitches along the way and I worked through them. The problem that was the most challenging was my accountant wasn't using the online version, and many of the tools that he needed are not included on the online version. Which made his work nearly impossible.

Over the last few years things have improved in some areas but not in others, and the monthly price continues to go up. Now the problem is switching to something else, because of the lack of export ability, although they tell you it is possible, in the real world it isn't. It is hard to switch over to another program.

And the monthly fee continues to go up. My accountant is using the program but it doesn't have the functionality that he needs to properly do his work. It is by no means a fully functional accounting program! I've been looking at ways to move to another product and will when I have done all my homework and know that I'll have a product that my company can grow with, I'll be speaking with my accountant along the way to ensure we are choosing a good program. Original review: Nov.

10, 2018 The service I received from QuickBooks Online Au team is horrible. Can't be worse. The company claimed to have seamless integration with PayPal in the promotion email. I signed up and paid the subscription.

It turned out the Accept via PayPal app in the app market is very buggy and far from mature for use. It just won't do the manual import time to time, all just won't do it at all. After submitting feedbacks for the problems I had during the use of the product, the service team have not provide any real solution and all the support tickets been closed. During the support time, in the email the customer service will either try to tell you that's all they can do, or they have provided the feedback or raised the problem to the upper level, then rush to close the ticket and ALL OF YOUR OTHER TICKETS because they think all your other tickets are simply duplicates that should not open for long. At the other time the customer service will just don't know what you are talking about at all.

So even if you already purchased a new PC, you can go check out and tinker with the other toys. Even if you want it so hard. Microsoft stores are a great place to familiarize yourself with the ecosystem. But beware: You might want to leave your credit card at home — it's very easy to drop a bunch of cash on stuff you probably don't need.

They simply don't understand their own product. Then several days later suddenly my paid subscription account been 'deleted'. Reported to the customer service via phone, email and Twitter. All I got is sorry we are trying to find out what has happened. It's been 4 days my account been out and I can't use it at all when I writing this review. One guy from the service team told me if I want to follow up on the support ticket I can call on their number and ask for him to answer the call.
