I've been using QB for 20 yrs, currently Desktop Premier 2020. Been getting all the emails about discontinuing but have not paid any attention to them until last week, I figured it was the same 3yr notice as always. Software that used to cost me $450 every 3 yrs, will now cost $800 per year. Insane - I will not do it. Plus I have Enhanced Payroll and merchant services, both of which I cancelled today. So Intuit not only lost a long term customer, but the increased cost plus the $500 annual payroll service, plus the merchant services to the tune of $20/month plus 3.69% on card fees. I do not use any cloud based computing and refuse to store any of my data on someone else's hard drive. So I'll just keep on using my software and find an alternate payroll solution and merchant service. Terrible business plan Intuit, just terrible.

I am a CPA (20+ years) and have been using QB for even longer. One of the drawbacks to QBOnline is that it is hard to create customized reports if you need something a bit out of the ordinary. Not so much a problem with QBDestop. And some clients have been using QBD since 2003 without upgrading. Granted they are not interfacing with their bank online, but QBD without support means that you can't call QB for help (no more talking to India). This is not as big a deal as might be supposed since there are so many QB Pro Advisors and/or QB practitioners available to help with your particular issues. I just hate paying each month for QBO which in my opinion is not as good as QBD. I am the CFO of two S corps and have been using QBO for more than 5 years. Yes, QB has improved QBO but I would switch back to QBD in a heartbeat.

I understand that the only constant is change. I also accept the premise that at $300 for a three-year run, Quickbooks desktop was under priced for what it does. But it looks like this change to online is going to make my Quickbooks cost multiply by a factor 1500%. That’s not a typo, I’ll be paying 15 times what I’m used to paying. For reference, this is the equivalent of a $6.00 Starbucks latte going to $90. A $300 a week grocery bill going to $4500. And a $40,000 automobile costing $600,000. If I was in business school right now, trying to get an MBA, I would do a deep dive into this, it’s such a great example of what happens when competition goes away. Having said all that, Jamie, you clearly seem to be the best informed person I’ve seen on KZbin about all of this. Will definitely be purchasing through your link.

They are offering short term discounts on the QBO and enhanced payroll, but when you take those discounts away, Desktop w/payroll was actually cheaper. I was told with my upgrade I will have support for a full year and in September they will decided whether or not they will continue to offer Desktop. I will stay with Desktop as long as possible. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. 🤷♀️

Personally I don’t think they’re going to get rid of desktop anytime soon. Ultimately I think they’ll probably end up selling it to another company. There are still some QSP’s that will sell the pro version of desktop, but they cannot “advertise“ it officially. I do agree there’s a push to get folks to move to the online version. There’s also more of a focus on the Mid Market product, the advanced subscription level. I just hope some of the smaller businesses don’t get left behind. If they do, then I’m here for them!

What do you know about QBO and multiple entities? (For example, the property management company that I do bookkeeping for has several (like 8-10) entities with different bank accounts, AND different Quickbooks Desktop files, to keep it all seperated. Do you have knowledge of whether or not this situation QBO would fee us up the rear by requirements for each entity? Truth be told, I am MUCH more likely to choose between sticking with QBDesktop for as long as I can, and heavily investigating alternatives like Freshbooks/Xero, but the fact that ONE entity does payroll makes it complicated and expensive. Truth be told, I am will likely (next) research how I might be able to handle our Payroll through a separate option and stick with QBDesktop 2020 and have my Payroll be clunky.

Almost the same monthly fee as ALL Adobe Creative Cloud Apps combined! As expensive as Adobe CC is, it at least pays for itself (or makes me a profit) if I use it. QB is just a time and money suck in order to pay taxes. Been using QB since 1996 and the cloud version would not fit my needs. As a freelancer, I don't even use 95% of what QB offers anyway. Paying about $10/mo for a Mac Desktop version would be about right for what I need as I have free alternatives if necessary. There is not a single feature in QB that I use that has changed since 1996. If I were an accountant and using it for clients my needs would be far greater. Based on what my CPA charges me, a QB subscription is nothing - he uses to it make money.

Here's some information on their security measures: quickbooks.intuit.com/hk/security/

I'm not willing to use Quickbooks online... no way... plus I have multiple companies. Intuit will be bankrupt soon, and then there will be a new kid on the block. Maybe we should all get together and create something that can be used locally and online lol.

Your heading is misleading you are an advertiser for qb, so sad.

Sorry you feel that way, I recommend Quickbooks to my clients because it's a great solution to there bookkeeping problems. I never recommend anything I don't 100% stand behind.

I think its a learning curve, but it has a ton of functionality. Much improved over even 5 years ago.

Thanks Hector! I love your step-by-step walkthrough of switching from Desktop to QBO. So helpful!

Quickbooks is not going away with desktop. They just went subscription based and offer cloud hosting to anyone that wants to log in from anywhere and still use the desktop better. An online subscription is not necessary. This is beyond false information.
@josephupton36018 ай бұрын
They have priced desktop so high that it might as well have gone away.

They told me they eventually want to only provide the cloud version.

Jamie is a shill for QB ... 1. imports from desktop fail, 2. cost is recurring and 2-3x more expensive, 3. most functionality of desktop is lost, and you are a permanent hostage to QB forever now... SHE DOESNT EXPLAIN ANYTHING ABOUT ALTERNATIVES IN THIS VIDEO

Really? You recommend a small business check out SAP as a QBO alternative? lol come on, you KNOW a small business that's using QB isn't going to switch to SAP, that's just scaring them back to QB.
@JamieTrull2 ай бұрын
I said it was for more complex businesses. I recommend QBO, but also named a few other options for those who don't want to move to the cloud. There unfortunately aren't a ton of options that aren't cloud-based anymore.

This is not true quickbooks desktop isn’t going anywhere we only keep up with 3 years at a time we just launched 2024 but people like you doesn’t have the facts I’ve already caught you up in 3 rumors Nit gonna call ya a liar but there’s a ton of qbdt products! Qbdt is a subscription base product as we’ll believe me when I say quickbooks is moving forward leaving the need of a cpa or bookkeeper in the past. How do I know this is just a sales agent well I may know a few things

As an accountant what would be the best QuickBooks desktop or online to manage my clients?😊😊

Clickbait. No alternatives presented. Intuit seems like the gestapo, should be ashamed of themselves. If you have multiple entities, no discounts, another subscription for each.

Sorry you feel that way, I do think Quickbooks is a good product, otherwise I would never recommend it.

@@JamieTrull Good product and recommended by many because it's the only real option, ubiquitous with all accounting professionals. Some support other options, but all support this product. Thanks for your kind reply.

To get the discount, you need to use my link BEFORE you set it up. Go to JamieTrull.com/Quickbooks and sign up there. Yes you can still downland after the end of May. Hope that helps!
