What differentiates Quickbooks Online from other similar products?

Quickbooks Online unlocked access to limitless collaboration, quotations and estimates, cash flow forecasting, and purchase invoice management. Additionally, Quickbooks Online offers analytics and expense reports so we are able to track our company's spending over time

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We use Quickbooks Online to set up recurring payments and get paid with a credit card, and the option to design unique client proposals and contracts are further tools

What do you dislike most about this product?

While Quickbooks Online does allow unlimited companies, remote access to the data requires purchasing a costly Quickbooks cloud hosting service which makes it get expensive quickly

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Before you decide that you cannot afford Quickbooks, I advise you to consider how much value it offers you. It may seem expensive to very small businesses but if you use the bulk of its functions, it is probably worth the cost

What differentiates Quickbooks Online from other similar products?

QuickBooks Online helps us visualize our finances with its reporting feature. We also use it to send invoices, track income and expenses, upload receipts and accept credit card payments

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It has a set of inventory management tools that provide significant features with flexibility and scalability. I am able to enter data in rows and columns and use formulas to organize, format, and calculate them

What do you dislike most about this product?

Using QuickBooks Online relies heavily on having a steady internet connection which may be quite a disadvantage if the connection is slow or has a fault. It also has limited storage capacity, which makes it unfit for big projects

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

With its cloud-based collaborative program, QuickBooks Online makes a great fit if you like to manage your business from anywhere. It is designed for those who already have sufficient knowledge of accounting and for small/mid-size businesses that need advanced inventory and industry-specific features
