The quickbooks extortion,
Very long time QB user here. Nothing is new here. Just another bloated version of Quickbooks that will expire after a few years and force you to upgrade in order to continue to use the services that you are already using. Once they have you, there is no getting out because your entire business is on there. I still have the 2004 version on an old computer and it’s amazing how much more bloated this one is in comparison.
This is far from a “pro” software suite. It is a very basic program and anything else you want to do requires subscriptions – you want payroll?? HAHAHA silly you for thinking an accounting program should include that- no you gotta subscribe at $150 a year for “do it yourself”. You want attach documents to invoices on your own computer?? HAHAHAHA no…that’s a subscription. Do you want to save invoices as a PDF to email your customer? YOHOHO yeah you can do that… but Quickbooks is sneaky and they will tell YOUR customer to go to a website to pay online without asking you first and if you want to get your money, that’s a subscription.
I urge you to find alternatives if you are looking for an accounting software. If you are already a customer then you may not have any choice but to upgrade. It’s like the mafia.
PS. If you notice, most of the 5 star reviews on here are very suspicious and written by users who don’t have any other reviews or maybe a token review or vine users who got the product for free. Some might say that this is a conflict of interest and people associated with Intuit are writing fake reviews. You decide yourself. Would you trust a thoughtful review by someone who has hundreds of reviews and nothing to gain or lose by writing it, or great raving reviews by someone who just did their first review.
***Notice price increase for Intuit Payroll****
Another reason why this is a very dishonest company to deal with: Last year I paid $261.80 for Enhanced Payroll for unlimited users (even though we only have 6 employees). That was bad enough, but this year, they raised the price to $395 AND without notice, renewed my subscription. THIS is why people hate you Intuit. THIS is the sort of thing that your spin doctoring won’t cover up.

|More of the Same from QuickBooks,
Despite all of the hoopla surrounding each new version, this version offers nothing new to 99.9% of users. As a CPA I have helped clients with QuickBooks for over 15 years and during that time I have seen a steady erosion in the usefulness of the program. It is large and cumbersome and much slower than older versions. My experience with the maker, Intuit is that they are not really a software company as much as they are a marketing company, using what once was a great product to squeeze more revenue out of their customers. It’s still is a decent product, but don’t upgrade unless you absolutely have to. If you are a new user, examine other products before you commit yourself to this once great and now mediocre product.

Mark, QuickBooks Customer Care
Customer service,
I have been experiencing a re-occurring problem with Quickbooks 2010 for the last six months. It is hard to understand the technicians at the other end of the phone, the response time has been reasonable, but it takes so long for them to fix the thing. My biggest concern is that the first thing the technician does is try to sell you a service contract. Four times I had to tell him I am a simplistic user, have been using it for 20 years and not needed a service contract yet. Still they kept trying to get me to buy the contract. Then they try and sell me the 2012 version which they say has fixed this problem. They want to sell this to me at a discount–which is $50 higher than the Amazon price. I suggest to them the reason for the problem is that there is an issue with the software (since they eliminated the problem in 2012) and I am told it is my machine. This is a money grubbing company that doesn’t care about its customers. After reading the comments here I will not upgrade since it is likely that I will experience other problems.
