Overall, I’m very pleased using desktop version of QuickBooks for our families electrical company versus using the online version for a side real estate business that I manage .
Pros
I love the increased features that QuickBooks desktop has versus the online software version specifically the ability to integrate business bank accounts and I love the ability to back up all files onto a computer instead of online where it’s backed up to a cloud and is at risk for it to be corrupted or lost at any time
Cons
Thing I like least about QuickBooks desktop is all the steps you have to go to in order to open and close the program so that your files always stay up-to-date. I feel like they should implement or create a easier start up and close out function.

I use QuickBooks on a daily basis, super easy to write and print checks, track bills and payment.
Pros
It is super easy to use for a small business and easy to set up, although I would suggest involving your accountant to set up the various expense accounts, etc., to be able to best track your deductible expenses, etc.
Cons
Takes a long time to load, but that is most likely because we have used it for years and years.

Using Accountant's Desktop for 10 years. Worse now then ever.

It has gotten much worse over the past 10 years. It is more expensive, and the product is worse. I could handle the increased cost if they just would have left it alone. All of the "enhancements" over the past 10 years have not enhanced my experience one little bit. The complaints on the QB forums with Accountant's Statement Writer have been ignored. When one of their team posts a reply, "It can be done":, it actually can't. Then we have to reply that the posted information is incorrect and won't work. Now... recently... they just provided an "enhancement" "update" which has interfered with the functionality of statement writer and client-ready payroll reports, both which export to Excel, and both of which will only work with different older versions of Excel. Yes... that's what Accountants want to do... try to find two different older versions of Excel so that you can get Quickbooks to function properly. A call to ProAdvisor Support actually made matters worse. So, I figured out the workaround and called back so that they could screenshot my computer and report the issues to the next Level 2 engineers. It took another hour to explain the problems, for which there is no fix. Why am I unpaid for debugging their software. With no apparent enhancement over the past ten years, they should have just left the program alone and charged a modest fee instead of doubling the cost and making the product worse. I am paying more for a lower-quality program, using the "Accountant's" version. By the way... I've been a CPA for decades... began my practice before hard drives were invented. This is now currently the worst software I have ever used.
Pros
Originally, I liked the cost, and it was functional.
Cons
Exporting important Accounting Reports to Excel. Some of those reports SHOULD be written into the software, just like other accounting software programs. An issue for 10 years on the forums that Quickbooks has continually ignored.

I started with QuickBooks when I opened my business and it has grown with us and met all of our needs.
Pros
Making invoices and tracking accounts on QuickBooks is easy with QuickBooks. The on-line checking makes payments on my end trouble-free and keeps me accurate. I appreciate the updates; I feels better about security and ease of use with new features.
Cons
It ittok me a while to adjust from other products but QuickBooks Desktop is a much better software for my small business.

Overall, we had a good experience using Quickbooks Desktop!
Pros
Most parts of the program were easy to use!
Cons
When Quickbooks forced their small business owners to Quickbooks Online, it was not an easy process. Forcing that kind of switch in the middle of a year, was less than convenient, especially when our company file was too big to transfer anything but out customers and vendor lists.
