Some QuickBooks users may be disappointed by the discontinuation of updates and support for QuickBooks Desktop. They’ll likely maintain the status quo and move to QuickBooks Online.
Others may see this as a serendipitous moment in their organization’s journey and seize the opportunity to transform operations. These bold, savvy leaders will finally abandon QuickBooks and all its headaches and move forward with a modern, cloud-based financial management solution like Sage Intacct.
Migrating from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online isn’t easy as it sounds. And it’s still QuickBooks—basic accounting software that works well for startups but not growing organizations with changing demands in a complex economy.
You may be so accustomed to QuickBooks’s deficiencies that you don’t realize how much time and money you’re wasting. The software doesn’t easily integrate with your other business applications, reporting is like herding cats, spreadsheets are making your eyes cross, and manual processes are leading to mistakes. Worst of all, you’ve never had an accurate picture of your organization’s financial and operational performance.
Before you stay with QuickBooks because it seems like the path of least resistance, ask yourself, “Is QuickBooks really the way forward for my organization?”
If not, or if you’re unsure, check out Sage Intacct. Built for finance by finance, Intacct automates and streamlines critical business processes in one powerful but affordable solution.
