Not bad, support is out of country but it is ok support. Lingering problems always exist as there are undeveloped or poorly developed portions of this app that you run into often.
Pros
The integrations are fantastic with QBO. I use so many plugins.
Cons
Its slow, and during high use times the slowdowns are pretty devastating to usability.

Overwhelmingly positive. I find it very intuitive. It does the job and I enjoy using the software. It doesn't frustrate me.
Pros
The reporting is good, the system is robust, the bank rec works, a lot can be automated, I use the payroll feature too which saves a lot of time.
Cons
The pension connection keeps not sinking so I manually have to go to the NEST website to enter in the numbers.

We love Quickbooks Online Advanced and it’s the only option for us when it comes to our tax prep, invoicing, bookkeeping and getting paid.
Pros
We love how easy it is to coordinate with our CPA, invoice our clients, and get paid easily and quickly. We tried so many other options and this was the obvious choice for us.
Cons
It is a very busy dashboard and menu system. It may be because we don’t need all the functions for our business, but it has a lot going on when you first log on and before you learn exactly what you need.

I knew I would have a learning curve after using Desktop Premium. That learning curve was shorter than expected and I am now considering features such as expense receipts. I will compare to using Expensify (which I dislike, but is used by several staff). I am always able to find workarounds and/or strategies to do what I want to do with invoices, reports, bills, and reports. I haven't fully explored the reporting features yet, though the immediate needs are easily met.
Pros
As I become more familiar with navigating through QBO (this software), I have come to like it much more than a previous version which I used briefly a few years ago. I like this software and have had only minor and temporary adjustment issues after converting from Quickbooks Desktop Premium.
Cons
Surprisingly, I don't have any strong dislikes. My navigation and use habits with Desktop had developed over several years. I can do everything in the Online version though I spend longer at this point. The new habits are quickly decreasing the extra time I initially spent. I found that I can have a few browser windows open so I am not constantly going back to a previous menu item. That was a major issue initially, and is now a minor annoyance at times.

Customer service has been terrific, however so many problems with online. I used the desktop version for over 20 years and the online version is littered with problems that customer service was unable to solve. Hopefully as time goes on it will become a better product.
Pros
The ability to use it remotely and store everything in the cloud
Cons
The reporting features are awful. Unable to get the same or even similar reports with necessary information as the Desktop version

It has been an overall positive experience. Our old program was clunky and really was not designed like move modern programs. Quickbooks Online Advanced is truly a great product.
Pros
I like that everything is easy to use and intuitive. We swapped from another program and were able to jump right in and start working immediately with little to no training.
Cons
The only issue that I have with Quickbooks Online Advanced has to do with the integration with Clio. The issue happens when you write one check to a vendor for multiple client matters. It ports them over to Clio as one entry. Other than that everything works perfectly.

We use Quickbooks to maintain our general ledger and run financial statements and pay bills. We have a separate software system to manage patient accounts and patient billing.
Pros
It's internet based. Saving reports in Excel is much faster.
Cons
Quickbooks Desktop was much more logical and easier to use. Quickbooks Online looks and functions much differently from the Desktop version. They changed everything....mostly for the worse. All the screens are different; the menus are all different; the reports are all different. Whoever designed this software knew little of accounting and how accountants work. Everything takes longer in Quickbooks Online than it did in Desktop....except saving reports to Excel.

A Must-Have For Administrators Looking For Efficient Payroll and Budgeting Software

Exceptional. I would be unable to handle the administrative functions of my position as well as client caseload without this software.
Pros
Ease of use! I am not an accountant nor am I professionally trained in business operations. When I was elevated from Staff Attorney to Executive Director I inherited administrative responsibilities that I was completely unfamiliar with. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how intuitive and efficient the software is. I am confident the transition into my position would have been far more difficult, but not for our subscription to QuickBooks Online.
Cons
After connecting our client management database and bank accounts to Quickbooks Online, I began to see duplicate transaction entries. In troubleshooting the issue, I discovered that deleting the journal entry created by our client database was the only way to resolve the issue. This makes me uncomfortable. I wish there were a way to "archive" the journal transaction. This would allow the system to properly reflect the journal created by the client database, as well as my direct entry in the accounting software without affecting the overall balance.

I came to my current position with a working knowledge of the QuickBooks process. I had prior experience entering data. The layout, checks and balances, and support features have allowed me educate myself on the accounting process. The support offerings are broad. There is technical support, accounting support, and the flexibility and capacity for getting even the most unique transaction.
Pros
The biggest feature for me is the ability of the application to recieve General Ledger imports from our practice platform. (LEAP) Prior to setting this feature up with LEAP, I was entering data twice. With the import process the accuracy of my transactions is seamless.
Cons
The only thing I can say would be continuing to have feature suggestions after I have indicated we don't wish to use, regardless of whether it is a direct QBOA or third party. It is possible that I have the ability to control that but I haven't found it yet.

Good! 7-8/10. It's not perfect & may not be the best fit for massive organizations, but you can get a lot of mileage from it if you spend time with the software & get comfortable with the range and depth of features available to Advanced users. Always play with the beta features!
Pros
QBO Advanced is designed to be an all-in-one finance & accounting solution. There are larger-scale ERPs out there, e.g. Oracle, ION, but Intuit definitely has the market cornered on out-of-the-box F&A software. Because Intuit has so many components available, the software is also modular to a certain degree & admins can turn on/off features as needed.
Cons
Intuit does not play nice with 3rd party integrations. There IS a developer portal if you're technical enough to do API work, but we've found software add-ons like Zapier are often necessary to build task automation into the manual steps of many QBO processes (which you will need if your organization works at scale & does not have a large accounting team).

Pros
The AI and intelligent features can really help you save time.
Cons
Intuit continues to raise their fess by like 20 - 40% every year. You're stuck on their system because exporting data out is almost impossible. There are many features that are not implemented well and sometimes it feels like they dont have accountants on their team using the software to catch issues.

Quickbooks is the standard, but they're starting to abuse that position
Reviewed on 22/03/2024
Pros
I like how Quickbooks is integrated with everything (banks, other CRMs, etc). It's also fairly easy to use once it's setup correctly by an accountant that knows what they're doing.
Cons
I feel like the product never gets any better, but the price keeps going up. Given that hooking up all your accounts is so time-consuming, it feels like they are abusing their relationship with their users. What else am I getting for my extra $10/month? When your user base is primarily small businesses, it feels predatory that they can just up their revenue by 100s of millions of dollars without doing anything to earn it.

Very User Friendly
Reviewed on 03/11/2023
Pros
One of the things I like most about QB, is how user-friendly it is. Adding new vendors, bills, or even making changes to existing information is quick and easy. The program comes with a list of standard reports that are quite helpful, but it also has the capability of creating custom reports to better suit your needs. Once created, you can save these custom reports for future use.
Cons
The only issue that I've encountered with QuickBooks, is sometimes when I've created a new vendor to my list it takes the system a little while to register them as added.
