QuickBooks Online Advanced Reviews & Product Details

Entering and tracking inventory and all financials was made as easy as it could be for an accounting novice like myself. We didn't realize the business was going to grow so quickly and started keeping track of sales and inventory on spreadsheets. We tried a less expensive software but it didn't provide all of the features that we needed and thankfully we learned this before our business became even more complex.

The ACH fees are high and the customization of invoices and packing slips are limited.

There are many advantages: complexity of product inventory has become easier to navigate and track from the time of purchase to the sale; we can run reports on just about anything.

It keeps all my sales in one place organized by each client. Allows me to review my transactions and look at outstanding invoices.

I keep having to log -in if I step away from my computer for a few minutes. The time is too short for when the program shuts down.

Easily invoicing my clients by email and eliminating paper invoices

My company has been using this product for over a year now. It was the best decision we could have made. It was an easy transfer of data from our old system to quickbooks. The software is very user friendly and if you need assistance there seems to be help available 24/7.

Not being able to copy and paste from an excel spreadsheet more than one row/column at a time

The benefits that we are most happy with is having our software cloud based, so that we can work on task from anywhere.

Super easy to use and just as easy to learn and master. There are so many helpful features and I find myself discovering new tools and tricks all the time. As a "newer" member of the accounting world, I love the ability to go back and edit invoices, bill, journal entries, etc; it's great teaching tool. I can't forget the endless amount of online support from other users through online posts and YouTube videos. The QB support is just as equally good!

There are so many features that it's hard to learn everything all at once. I find myself struggling with something for a while only to learn later on that there is an easier way.

The ability to work from anywhere is amazing. I don't have to worry about logging into the VPN and hoping the connection works.

Love the cloud based system. QBO is easy to use.

Wish the Budget versus Actual reporting had a better format.

Our reporting is more robust now.

Quickbooks is fairly straight-forward and easy to use. I like that I can send my clients invoices directly to the client.

Sometimes it can be difficult to train others to use it since it's different than the desktop version.

Easily manage our bank accounts online.

The convenience of QB online is outstanding!

We experience too many glitches which can be frustrating!

We had issues with our purchase orders printing out without all of the information. This is something QB has been resolving.

I like how easy it is to pull up reports when it comes to our overall business.

There is nothing that I don't particularly like. I like how organized and user friendly the program is.

We are using Quickbooks to organize our financial information and to create monthly and quarterly reports for us to learn and grow from.

Easily accessible cloud based platform that allows you to access your finances online via a desktop app, browser, mobile app, or mobile browser. It is simple, convenient, and intuitive. Allows me to stay abreast on the entries being made by accounts, manage our customers, manage employees, and manage our vendors/contractors.

Would be great if there was some form of integration with a great budgeting tool to manage the budget, actuals, variances, etc. Also would be great if it allowed you to do variances. Would also be great if there was a better way to change reporting formats. Our stakeholders uses different categories for our GL accounts, so we like to have things roll up in more than one way.

Accounting and invoicing needs

Went to QBOA for import functions and stayed for the other added features like custom reports. API integration has sped up many tasks as well.

Could use more ways to click through one area to another eg. no way to navigate to customer info from invoices

Keeping track of accounting and invoices. API allows us to quickly generate multiple invoices from a spreadsheet of orders.

I enjoy the automation of QuickBooks that allows you to spend less time on small tasks.

I wish the fees were not so high compared to the product you receive.

It allows me to keep my books updated in a timely fashion.

Imports from banks and credit cards is good

Random problems that arise and takes too long to fix because they have to send it up the ladder

Keeping track of bank balances so know how much is in account. Credit cards you can see if getting close to limits

Charting features. It provides details in presentation form which is easier to understand.

Customer support usually takes more time in providing a solution to a simple question.

No real problem to be honest! We can use all the features if we have an advanced version.

The product is very easy to use and implement for a business

There is a long wait time for customer support

It makes reconciliations easier

Very efficient and flexible accounting software.

The foreign currency handling is imprecise, behaves in strange ways, and clunky.

Allows us to keep track of donations, including donors' contact information and preferences. Gives us all the reports we need for filing IRS forms.

Quickbooks allows you the flexibility to customize your accounting software to your business needs. With custom reports and automated reporting, you simply click the button to get the information you need daily, weekly, monthly, or annually about how your company is performing. We have gained a better knowledge of what goes on daily and are no able to react accordingly as needed on the financial front of our organization.

With all of the excellent capabilities that Quickbooks has, there are times it seems like the limitations we have in the software should not be an issue. I would like to see them get more customer feedback on how the system would work better for all industries.

We can now better handle our inventory, aging receivables, and profit from specific sales avenues. Our prior accounting software did not give us this information quickly and typically, we had to create our reports outside of the software.

I like how it integrates with bill.com to avoid wasting time entering in AP invoices. I also like the reporting options.

I do not like that transactions can be easily deleted and/or changed without an audit trail

It keeps all of our information in one place, making it easier to close the books.

Easy to use and intuitive. It is quick to learn and simple.

When QuickBooks decides to change features without telling anyone.

Being able to track our expenses and find areas of waste and trim the fat.

I like the fact that QuickBooks has made strides in the cloud segment. You can create invoices from a mobile device and get customer signatures. You can also sign up for online payments and get paid.

As a desktop user, it is a nice feature to have a dedicated desktop app. And while they had a desktop app until now, they are getting rid of it this year. That is the main complaint I have.

We sent out invoices using Excel spreadsheets, and I'm so glad those days are over. QuickBooks helps us send out invoices and keep our books up to date. Connecting bank accounts is a plus too!

That it's not limited to a single service provider or desktop, it's very mobile

Sometimes syncing problems occur from one device to another during switching

Simple bookkeeping and inventory management for my small business
