QuickBooks Online Advanced Erfahrungen

QuickBooks is the best accounting software for established businesses and startups. It offers the best tools to make sure you always have the most accurate financial data possible, no matter what. And their technical support is second to none!

Ability to send invoices via text messages

Online access is convenient. Most clients are already using it. Easy to get accountant access. Bank feeds are superior to the desktop product. Integrates with many different tools through Zapier. Works with a large array of direct 3rd party add ins.

It lacks basic and essential features such as reliable backup/restoration of data, month end closing tools, etc. forcing us to pay third parties to make up for what QBO lacks. The receipt capture is too limited and is very poor at matching transactions if it doesn’t automatically recognize a receipt.

The system is extremely nit picky about which type of transaction you are using in the moment. This is not an issue with QB desktop as you can easily enter almost any type of transaction from the register without the need to tell it what you are doing in advance.

The product does not often get substantive improvements and yet the subscription fees are very high and are increasing over time. Pay more, get the same product.

Quickbooks online is easy to use for business bookkeeping and efficient reporting. Clients prefer this to other bookkeeping software

It was difficult to import trial balance from the previous software. I could not see the option to import TB

Nothing really. We used to have QB desktop and it was pretty solid, but it was clunky for our remote accountant to access the desktop version (possible, just challenging for only our accountant or we could be on the desktop version at a time). Otherwise it the desktop version was great.

Where do I start. Customer service knows 'zero' about the construction industry hence can't relate to questions regarding simple things such as sub-contractor W9 and certificate of insurance (COI) storage. QB desktop has a place for input of COI storage with the addition of 'reminders' when a sub's COI expires. The online version has nothing for this (and this is a big deal for a growing general contractor - keeping track of COI manually is a huge pain). Also, when adding a project (location) for an Existing customer one would think you could go into an Existing customer profile to create a new project - but no, you have to create an entirely new CUSTOMER to do this, when all you are doing is adding a project to an existing Customer. It's baffling. Our accountant also doesn't like QB online and commented it was designed by website designers - not accountants. I agree. We're looking for new accounting software.

QuickBooks Online Advanced has a lot of features that make accounting and bookkeeping easier, such as its ability to track income and expenses, reconcile accounts, and generate financial reports. It also has a great mobile app with a friendly user-interface, making it easy to access data on the go.

QuickBooks Online Advanced can be difficult to navigate for newcomers and lacks some customization options. It also doesn't have a good budgeting feature, which is a must-have for any business.

Easily keep track of giving records, and church expenses to make sure we are staying within our budget.

That I have to assign a sales receipt when it is not necessary for our business structure. I don’t like that. It gives me an error on every giving transaction. I enter because of this.

QB utilizes an attractive and user friendly UI paired with lots of helpful features for accounting purposes. Reporting is easy and produces important data is a clear and visually pleasing way

Custom service can be a little slow and tiresome at times but generally speaking the company and software has performed admirably.

QuickBooks Online Advanced is an excellent accounting software that is easy to use, efficient, and has numerous features that make it stand out. The thing I liked most about this software is its ability to streamline financial operations, manage expenses, and automate data entry. The platform is intuitive, and it's effortless to navigate and create custom reports.

While QuickBooks Online Advanced has many great features, it does have a few drawbacks. The pricing is one of the cons, as it may not be affordable for small businesses. Another thing I didn't like about this software is that some of its features may be difficult for first-time users to navigate, and it may take a while to get the hang of it.

Easy to use, flexible, and low cost, it requires minimal training.

Multicurrency is very difficult to use.Easy to change and delete records, this is not good for control purposes.

Everything is in auto-mode. Saves hours of time :)

Customer support could be better. Time delay is not very good, but it is good enough

There are so many features to this software, but my favorite is definitely the online platform. I am able to see the progress of the business through my phone or iPad and not just sitting behind a desk. So much business is done on the road or moving around and having the app easily accessible I can always be in touch with what is going on in the company.

Setting up the new company file was difficult. We were moving from QuickBooks desktop and it had to much data (20 years worth) that we were not able to compress it then upload the information to the new platform. We were able to do batch uploads which did allow us to preserve some data but it did make the transition a little more difficult than it needed to be.

We love that QuickBooks provides an online option that is easily accessible for all of our virtual employees and financial advisers. It has been a breeze to use compared with our old system (Abilla MIP). In today's digital age, we don't often need all the complexity - just the natural, simple, and efficient financial management systems.

The only thing we haven't liked is that our transition from MIP had to be done manually.

The ability to find any transaction, bill very fast. There are reports that can be deeply customized, bills can be searched easily, and it is easy to switch between companies.

It has too many features! It has a million options, and options within options. If you are inexperienced with the software, it can be hard to find what you are looking for. Once you do find things it becomes quite simple.

Due to the complexities of non-profit financials. Quickbooks alleviates much of the work and assists with proper allocations of Donor Contribution, Grants and Foundation monies. Classifying expenses is also tricky without the easy to use features Quickbooks non-profit software provides.

I cannot think of any downfalls. I have used other non-profit accounting softwares and Quickbooks is by the far the best.

The dashboard, cloud-based nature, and layout of the software has been up to date for at least 7 years whereas other general ledger software have stuck with more traditional builds.

There isn't much I dislike. There are changes that are desired but these are features that other software also do not have.

Online accessibility - can work anywhere with an internet connection. Linking to bank and credit card accounts is handy. Linking to Bill.com and Expensify are also easy.

As a controller and an accountant consultant on the side, I would recommend the online version to small businesses with fewer than 5-10 employees and revenues under $1 million that have very few transactions. For companies that have multiple approval layers and AP invoices, you would need an add on app like Bill.com to handle. We use Expensify and Bill.com to handle expense reporting and AP. QuickBooks Enterprise edition would be a better fit for companies with more than a million in sales and more than 10 employees, but costs can add up on that platform.
-Approval levels are very broad. If I want to allow someone to add classes, I have to give them access to banking and reports that are only for partners to see. Further a la carte customization for permissions would certainly be handy.
-Speed - even with high speed internet, processing multiple AP invoices is very slow compared to the desktop counterpart.
-Accounting integration - when allowing accountants access to the company file, downloading the GL needs to go to excel. If the GL is large, it may exceed the line limit for Excel.
-Some reports are unable to use the custom fields. This creates problems when the custom fields are critical. in our case, we can't run a report of payments received that includes project numbers. In order to get that report, I need to use Zapier to extract payments as they come in and send them to a google sheet. So the only listing I have for payments listed with our custom fields is in Google sheets!

QBO Advanced includes the analytics through dashboards and Fathom. These are powerful tools and very useful for management. The Enhanced Custom Fields are valuable for our company as we are able to capture information that can be kept in QBO with the client instead of having several spreadsheet to keep this information. The Customize Access By Role is helpful for us because we are able to then develop UI from our software into QBO allowing our developer to have access to QBO but not have access to the entire company file. Feedback is very vital for us the user. As we find something that could make our jobs easier, or a way of getting information out you can always enter the feedback in for Intuit's development team to review. I have experienced that some feedback has been addressed, which adds value for us because we know that the software is becoming a tool that will do all that we need it to do.

We lost a couple reports when we converted over from desktop, but Intuit is constantly working on enhancing the software.

It is easy to enter information into Quickbooks and find it later.
Reports are great! I can always find the infromation I need in a ready report, and love that I can click within a report to access more detailed infromation.

As a non-profit, it can get a little complicated when tracking restricted revenues and their related expenses.
Year end reporting for fulfilling the 990 is not easy when working around the chart of accounts as it us set up in QBO - some account categories don't match up with the way nonprofits track them.

I use QBO daily. I appreciate this as our main payroll and accounting system. Quickbooks easily integrates with our third-party websites and needs; eg. credit card processing, Paypal, as well as our donor base as we are a 501c3 non profit. I did not have a background in accounting or business management. Quickbooks Online made it very easy to learn how this function works. QBO Customer service always goes above and beyond assisting any needs. Minimal downtime and errors with this software. Very Happy.

Over the years QBO has made many advancements and received customer feedback for a quicker, simpler way to run and access reports. I do not have any issues using this software.

easy to use
easy to teach
functions are compatible with our organization's operations
Allows a lot of customization for reports

not cheap
tech support is too expensive
some updates are not necessary. Seem to occur just so it can be said that it was updated.

Easy to use, is easy tp customize to our agency need,

ability to change transactions once created and posted to the General Ledger

Easy to use. Great customer support with multiple ways to contact support. Helps us track our company easily. Has everything our business needs.

The app is a little different than the web version, which throws me off sometimes when I am used to doing things a certain way using the web version.

QuickBooks is one of the easiest programs to use. The customer service is great and very responsive, expenses are easily trackable. You have the ability to edit and make changes if things need fixed. Some programs won't allow this which can be problematic, but QuickBooks does it all. The search option is one of my favorite things, sometimes you don't have all the information, so this helps you piece it together much faster.

I really don't have any complaints about the software. We sometimes have issues with some expenses not importing into our other program we use, but I have a feeling that this is the other program's issues, not necessarily QuickBooks.

Theoretically, it's a great idea. Great to be able to have multiple users in different locations, and it updates continuously. Being able to attach docs to each transaction is great. But unless your company is very very simple, QBO has the potential to turn into a serious mess.

It is overly complicated, not intuitive, not easy to learn, and if a mistake is made, it turns into a nightmare. And the tech support people, although extremely nice and polite, generally don't know how to fix the problems, they put you on hold to look it up I think. The are not knowledgable, not confident about their answers. I've had them tell me to do things that made a small problem much worse, I'm now paying an accountant to try to fix the mess. I've asked for someone more knowledgable and they say there is no one. And we pay for the Advanced feature, supposedly better support. Priority Circle too. Gimmicks.

It makes a very difficult task like accounting that people take years to learn an understandable and conquerable task for people without the proper education and background. I'm an accounting professional I never intended to be because of it. Payroll is a breeze!

The terms used for categories gets excessive sometimes but if you keep track then it isn't difficult to learn.
